Hi,

Opponents largely unknown, but the amount of limping must be a clue

Kind of an interesting spot on the flop - it should be full of bricks for pretty much everyone, but again, with this much limping, who knows what their ranges are. Decided to go with it because didn't expect anyone to have a large pair, and I could get value from smaller pairs (and perhaps even A-highs) without the risk of a scare card landing on a later street. Playing the hand the normal way likely would've ended up with me being all-in by the river anyway

Is this reasonable? Or should I be afraid of :6x:, or perhaps 33?

Thanks!

It looks like you are playing with a lot of fishy players at the table. You could even consider making it 400-500 against so many limpers pre-flop. I expect you get still enough action if you would do that and playing out of position with TT is always tough post-flop.

The flop is dry for sure, but against 3 players I would defiantly Cbet at least half pot for value. it’s weird the BB is min raising and the MP is only calling, but a 6 and 33 are hands you need to count in both ranges and shoving is tricky without any info on both players. I expect you only get action of better or you have seen him making bad moves before, but I would most likely call and her-evaluate on the turn. It’s not worth it to risk your tournament yet when you have most likely not to much fold equity if you shove, but move is understandable here.

Cheers,

Vs 4 opponents, even if you determine them all to be fish, I think you overplayed TT overpair here. I think I am even folding to raise. I think 6x or 33 is more likely than 77-99. Nothing else raises that you are beating.
