Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A♠: A♣:
Hero raises to $0.06, UTG+2 calls $0.06, MP1 calls $0.06, MP2 folds, MP3 calls $0.06, 4 folds

Flop: ($0.27) 7♠: T♠: T♥: (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG+2 bets $0.15, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.15

Spoiler

$2.51 pot ($0.15 rake)
Final Board: 7♠: T♠: T♥: T♣: A♦:
Hero showed A♠: A♣: and lost (-$1.18 net)
UTG+2 showed J♦: T♦: and won $2.36 ($1.18 net)

I should have kept way calling instead of raising? When I saw the 3rd 10 I thought he could not have the last 10.

I think you can never ever fold/check there, especially for that price.

I like his check on the turn though :).

Oh... Why the flop check by the way?

Dunno I remember some years ago when i was reading the strategy it was saying that if you are not sure if you are way ahead or way behind you it was better to check?

Also flush draw + posibility that he had the 10 made me not bet, I don't like to CBET everything in the long wrong it made me lose too much money.

I might be completely wrong - memories form 3-4 years ago .

You open from UTG so villain can call pre with QQ,JJ. I think those are a lot more likely than villain having a Tx hand. Quads are quite rare so I don't think you should be too afraid of those.

This one does not fall into the category 'c-bett everything'. For sure! :)

Raise bigger pre.
Cbet mandatory.
As played, river you're still valuing some Ax so it's ok, don't be result oriented.

First off, that is a pretty bad flop with 3 opponents. It is enough for one of them to have hit to have you screwed (which seems to escape notice). You don't have to bet.

Obviously, you aren't folding anywhere, but those last 15.5 bb have very negative EV. The dude just told you he had a T.

I think the main problem in this hand was villain's trap, just checking on turn.
One doubt that I always have is when facing villain aggression on river, like in this spot, should we consider hero folding? frequently we can loose for 2 pairs, trips, etc,. Of course if considering villain as regular.
