Apart from not raising preflop (which is debatable at a 10 handed table) I think you played the hand perfectly. You knew that villian would call down with a wide range, so you charged him/her full price for it.

Sometimes there is just no amount of money/chips that will make a villian fold a draw. Don't think you could've played the hand any "better" that makes him fold on any street. Some players just never do - they'll call all in with a gutshot on the flop, or a flush draw on the turn.

this

its debatable whether you should raise pre with TT. personally, i normally would, but i am used to playing 6max, not 10 handed. so in general i think its ok to limp here.

post flop, you played it fine

Agree with the above. Your bet sizing was fine imo. And if your only going to play TT at a full table for set value (i.e. not raising pre), then you did this perfectly too. Just unlucky man.

personally with 10 10 utg im definately raising pre if nothing more to at least minimise the hand ranges which will more than like call, limping from early gives no info. But hey i open raise too much or so i have been told.

while reading through how the hand played out i instantly though villian was holding either the heart draw or a j9.

Omg strat from Matty Norwood!

Mods, save that post, this is going down in the record books.

Norwood makes like a million strat posts on the 2+2 forums and nothing on here. It's about bloody time.

matty, are you norwoodmatty1010 on 2+2?

im not sure if that is indeed you.

It's him lol.
