Preflop: Hero is BTN with 2 T
UTG calls, MP calls, CO folds, Hero calls, SB completes, BB checks

Flop: (5 SB) Q 3 5 (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets, MP folds, Hero calls, SB calls, BB folds

Turn: (4 BB) T (3 players)
SB checks, UTG bets, Hero calls, SB raises, UTG calls, Hero calls

River: (10 BB) 8 (3 players)
SB bets, UTG calls, Hero raises, SB calls, UTG calls

Results: 16 BB pot (0.5 BB rake)
Final Board: Q 3 5 T 8

First of all i am aware you dont limp T2s on BTN .. But there were two limpers behind me and i had enough hands to on SB and BB that they only raise AA or 24o. Lets just call them less experienced nearly blind players.

Its not bad to overlimp weak sc after 2 limpers, when you have information that players behind you are loose, and are willing to call, you create nice multiway pot.

But with hand like T2s, its just too weak, do it with suited connectors like 67 89 etc, and if your certain players behind you also overlimp.

was my last hand of my session i played. and i know everything is wrong about the hand itself .. like my holecards. :P I was rather doing this as in "lets hope i flop a flush and pwn pwn" type of hand.

Preflop it's a fold but 2 fishy players before you and you have a suited hand. It's just a small mistake to overlimp that hand. Once UTG bets into the whole field i would just proceed passively as you did well. Turn is a good card but no reason for raising. Of course you could do a freeshowdownraise. You protect against SB and if UTG folds 5 Outs like A3 A5 K5 etc, it's great for you. So i don't mind raising the turn and checking back the River but river actually plays itself. :)

What do you think about freeshowdownraising the turn?

Why is it great for us if UTG folds 5 outs like A3 A5 K5 etc? Isn't it great for us if UTG calls for 5 outs when he does not have the odds to do so?
