Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU$0.91:///////;SB$1.28:///////;BB$2.01:///////;UTG2$4.36:///////;MP1$1.06:///////;MP2$4.13:///////;MP3 (Hero)$4.55:///////;CO$0.81:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T:s, T:h.
UTG2 raises to $0.06, MP1 calls $0.06, MP2 folds, Hero calls $0.06, CO folds, BU calls $0.06, 2 folds, BB folds.

Flop: ($0.27) 8:c, 3:h, 6:s (4 players)
UTG2 bets $0.12, MP1 calls $0.12, Hero raises to $0.50, BU folds, UTG2 folds, MP1 raises to $1.00, Hero calls $0.50.

Turn: ($2.39) 3:s (2 players)

River: ($2.39) 6:d (2 players)

Final Pot: $2.39.

Results follow:

Hero shows two pairs, tens and sixs(Ts Th).
MP1 shows two pairs, jacks and sixs(Jh Jd).

MP1 wins with two pairs, jacks and sixs(Jh Jd).

Pretty much had no real grasp of this hand while I played it. Should I have raised preflop? Was raise on flop correct? I'm pot commited to the short stacks shove, at least I don't think I can get away there...

Hello ExMagnusxL,

Preflop: Nah, I wouldn't raise it here without good reason, since I don't plan to go broke with my hand, therefore I'd rather prefer to Call it and play postflop.

As played
Flop: Raising doesn't make sense here at all, we likely will get Called only by a better hand, therefore I might as well consider just Calling and reevaluating further streets. As played I am not going to fold against MP1 stack.

Best regards.
