    Default 2NL ATo in MP

    Hero (MP): $6.14 (307 bb)
    CO: $2.17 (108.5 bb)
    BTN: $1.03 (51.5 bb)
    SB: $1.52 (76 bb)
    BB: $2.01 (100.5 bb)
    UTG: $1.65 (82.5 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with T A
    UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.10, CO calls $0.10, BTN folds, SB calls $0.09, BB calls $0.08

    Flop: ($0.40) 4 7 3 (4 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, CO checks

    Turn: ($0.40) J (4 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $0.25

    CO is a 10/4 over 50 hands
    BTN is a 58/2 over 100 hands
    SB is a 43/3 over 75 hands
    BB is a 29/16, 9.4%3bet over 85 hands

    Okay first off I'm not sure our open here is all that great due to our position. We'll get called by the button a lot of the time with a pretty marginal hand and end up in some bad spots... thoughts?

    OTT is it worth it to take a stab here or..? No one has really shown any interest and we pick up a good amount of equity when the 2nd diamond hits. However this is 2NL vs. 4 players in the hand, we can't expect to take it down here with a very high frequency here. On the other hand when we do get called most of the time we'll be in position for the river as the player to our left is fairly nitty looking. Thoughts?

    Thanks

    ATo is fine to open from MP.

    Yeah I like betting the turn here. Nobody is showing any interest and you take it down a lot of the time. When you don't, you have a draw to the nuts and 2 overs so plenty of equity. Ace high might even be best some of the time as well.

    Nice hand.
