Default well...another donked hand by Trons???

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (10 handed) converter

MP2 (t820)
MP3 (t860)
Hero (t1440)
Button (t1470)
SB (t2020)
BB (t1380)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t3570)
UTG+2 (t500)
MP1 (t1440)

Preflop: Hero is CO with , .
2 folds, UTG+2 calls t30, MP1 calls t30, MP2 calls t30, MP3 calls t30, Hero calls t30, Button calls t30, 1 fold, BB checks.

I figured that with this many people seeing the flop, it would be pretty cheap. This table had been fairly L/P

Flop: (t225) , , (7 players)
BB bets t30, UTG+2 folds, MP1 calls t30, MP2 folds, MP3 calls t30, Hero raises to t100, Button folds, BB folds, MP1 folds, MP3 calls t70.

This was typical type of bet at this table. If I called, I would have no idea of where my hand was. I felt a decent raise would drive out the crap and give me a better idea of where I stood...

Turn: (t485) (2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero bets t200, MP3 raises to t400, Hero calls t200.

This was more of a probe bet to see if he still liked his hand. When he raised, I had a hard time putting him on a 2, but a Q was very possible. He could of been bluffing because he kept talking about how we all sucked...and he was going to take all our chips. When it was my turn to call, I figured I had 5:1, that made it a marginal call...

River: (t1285) (2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero checks.

The other 2 didn't really make me nervous, but I also thought this was one of those situations where the only way a bet is getting called was if I was beat...I felt the check behind was a decent idea. It also crossed my mind that he may have a mid PP and the bet on the turn was to get a cheap showdown. I decided that while possible the prudent move was to check...

Final Pot: t1285

Results in white below:
MP3 has Jc 2s (four of a kind, twos).
Hero has Ts 8c (full house, twos full of tens).
Outcome: MP3 wins t1285.


I'm still scratching my head on this. One of those situations where I feel I screwed up somewhere, but can't really figure out where...comments?

Im check/folding the turn.

If hes got a queen your beat... save yourself 200 chips and think to yourself why is he sticking around after your raise on the flop. He has either got a 2, got a flush draw or he has higher pockets than the high card 10 showing on the board. Its not worth sticking around too much with a hand like that on a board like that unless the player your up against is as fishy as the ocean.
