    Default 10NL hand to review..

    I left this hand with a really weird feeling, not knowing whether i played it well or horribly donked it.

    no reads.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    BB ($9.90)
    UTG ($10.70)
    UTG+1 ($16.70)
    MP1 ($7.70)
    MP2 ($14.10)
    MP3 ($6.15)
    Hero (CO) ($27.85)
    Button ($5.40)
    SB ($10.05)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with A, Q
    4 folds, MP3 calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.50, 2 folds, BB calls $0.40, MP3 raises to $0.90, Hero calls $0.40, BB calls $0.40

    Flop: ($2.75) A, 5, 6 (3 players)
    BB checks, MP3 bets $1.70, Hero calls $1.70, BB calls $1.70

    Turn: ($7.85) 10 (3 players)
    BB checks, MP3 bets $0.80, Hero raises to $3.50, BB calls $3.50, 1 fold

    River: ($15.65) 6 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks

    Total pot: $15.65 | Rake: $1.55

    What do you think MP's range is when he limp-reraises?

    What range of holdings could the big blind have?

    Why raise the turn? I'm not saying it's wrong, I just want to think about why we might do it.

    Looking over this hand, I'm guessing MP3 had TT-QQ or maybe KK and was open limping because the table was tight folding. (I was guilty of doing this too to try to extract value before tightening up my game.) That explains his limp raise to and his weak play on the turn where he figures you have an ace.

    BB i have no idea.. at micro I have seen the most ridiculous hands come out of BB. It looks like a set or 87 but hard to say because he checked the river. I wouldnt be surprised if he turned up something like A5 though lol or 34 and was trying to suck out.

    he clearly doesn't have TT in his range cause he's not folding trips on the turn..
    in response to the first reply, when mp3 limp min raises, I think he's a dick head, trying to run a terrible play. I put him on a pp at best, any two pictures or Arag. their play is so strange I still don't know what they were playing at.
    I raise the turn based on the size of the bet by mp3, basically saying 'I give up but don't want to make it obvious'.. and BB hadn't really shown any strength.. but after the call was happy to check it down.

    Whoops you are right about TT. He def wouldn't toss that at the turn.

    And I agree with you about his play, which is one of the reasons I play lots of tables at micro now because it gets frustrating when you get JJ+ and the whole table folds to you preflop.

    OMG MP3 played this LOL bad. He might as well turn his hand face up after that turn bet.

    Bet the river here. With villains stack size (<$4 behind on the river) and your equity, there's no reason not to get him all in.

    Couldn't agree more.

    I was going to say shove the turn, but I don't think BB has a strong draw that WOULD call a shove on the turn and probably the small-small line is best to extract value from Ax

    i dont think yo ucan fold preflop to a minraise but im certainly playing my hand in a lukewarm way.
    tbhonest id just call the turn bet or do something to his donkish bet that lets me see the river cheaply - but i dont like getting here preflop
