PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.01/$0.02 - 8 players
Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

UTG: $2.43 (122 bb)
UTG+1: $5.33 (267 bb)
MP: $2.52 (126 bb)
MP+1: $2.07 (104 bb)
CO (Hero): $4.02 (201 bb)
BU: $5.01 (251 bb)
SB: $2.31 (116 bb)
BB: $0.65 (33 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.03) Hero is CO with T T
4 players fold, Hero raises to $0.08, BTN 3-bets to $0.27, 2 players fold, Hero 4-bets to $0.90, BTN 5-bets to $1.53, Hero 6-bets to $4.02 (all-in), BTN calls $2.49

This probably looks overplayed. (Maybe it is.)

To give some context, I don't use any tracking software but the villain would give me a hard time before. 3betting me a few times. Calling my pre-flop raises and cbet and then would bet OTT if I checked. So basically exploiting my game it seemed.

So here I thought I had a good hand to fight back with good enough equity. Not sure though because of the deep stacks?

I don't think that shoving 200 with TT is a good idea, if he is a good player (unlikely) you just can't outplay him, he has a position on you. There is one easy solution, just find another table. This is stars, you shouldn't have any problem.

Even if you want to 4bet here I would make it around 75c. After his 5bet I would only go with QQ+ against him or you have reads he's a aggressive villain.

this is insane. TT would already be the bottom of your range for 100 bb... call the 3bet and play postflop.
yeah, you might get owned, but you can't patch a small exploit by opening a gigantic hole instead.

All right, I got it. I'm glad I posted this hand and I hope I can eliminate this kind of play from my game. Thanks.
