$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
Hero ($107.25)
CO ($51.30)
BTN ($35.41) 59/1/2
SB ($79.52) 19/17/3.1 , 3bet PF 7%, cbet 86%
BB ($51.75)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is UTG T♣ 8♣
Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, BTN calls $2, SB raises to $6, 1 fold, Hero calls $4, BTN calls $4

Flop: T♥ 3♠ 2♥ ($18.75, 3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, BTN bets $18.50, SB folds, Hero ??

Most interesting hand of yesterdays session.

I call the squeeze preflop because of 2 reasons:
- squeeze is pretty small, looks to me like a stealsqueeze because of fish in the pot.
- expect buttonfish to call also preflop: decent odds.
- T8s is a playable hand postflop, can hit in many ways.

But now the flop:
SB squeezer obviously had AQ or worse.
Can I call (would mean shove for few $$ more) in this spot with our TP and silly kicker?

That´s why T8s is trouble hand, because you hit T or ( on low board you likely call one bet on the flop and then decide on the turn)
I´d just fold T8s pf to 3-bet
As played: I´d shove against shortstack potsize bet. Often he has draw or smaller pp.
