This hand bugged me due probably mostly due to the result...
I want to hear an external opinion, so I might get away from that result orientation.
All I can see that is wrong with it is the possible flush.

Poker Stars $0.05/$0.10 Limit Hold'em - 10 players
Hand History Converter

Pre Flop: (1.4 SB) Hero is BB with 9 :heart: T :spade:
7 folds, BTN calls, SB calls, Hero checks

Flop: (3 SB) 3 :diamond: T :heart: 6 :diamond: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, BTN raises, SB folds, Hero calls

Turn: (3.5 BB) 9 :diamond: (2 players)
Hero bets, BTN calls

River: (5.5 BB) 4 :club: (2 players)
Hero bets, BTN calls


Don't worry, be happy!

I think I prefer x/r'ing on the flop rather than betting out but niether can be that harmful

On the turn you've pulled ahead of all his better T's and it's very possible he was raising worse for value on the flop (i.e. a protection raise w/ a 6) so I would x/r the turn, Top 2 pair is a very strong hand and the board's not scary enough for me to take my foot off the gas

I'll assume you mean check raising with "x/r'ing".
Sounds reasonable.
Thanks man! :)

I think that betting out on the flop is much better than a c/r. How do you know that BU is going to take a stab? And if it gets checked around on the flop, it's quite bad for you.

Depends completely on player and vs many I'd bet out too but vs anyone not a completely passive fish I don't want to basically have my checks say "I have nothing" and my bets to say "I have what you think I have"

Additionally this board connects somewhat with a limpers range so I think the odds of no bet going in are quite low
