 UTG with Tens, john ray, 20. Apr 2003 08:46 | ||

| In a NLHE tourney what would be reasonable bet on a full table considering not knowing the other players. I had this and limped and sure enough some guy holds A5o and the board makes the other 3 A's then I took the big hit by betting out flop. Only my second go at NL. The flop bet was more frustration because I felt i should'nt have let these guys limp in. THANKS JOHN | ||

| A reasonable raise would have been about four to five times the BB. | ||

TJ Cloutier writes that he uses the same pot-size raise with every hand he opens with, be it AA or 72o. As with most situations in NL, it depends. If I don't have enough chips to make a meanful bet on the flop should I get called after making a pot size raise, I will usually push all in. If a pot-size raise is 4BB, one call will put about 10BB in the pot. So, if I have 9 or less BB before I open the pot, I will usually push it all in. TT is a hand for which you would rather not have any callers. You want to collect the blinds (and antes) and see the next hand. With TT you are a small favorite or a big dog to just about any hand that will call your raise. At a full table you should seriously consider folding pre-flop unless your stack is short.

| Depending on a tonne of factors (especially blinds), one of the following applies: 1) Limp here. You want to play for a set and make a lot of money. Treat the tens as you would eights. No set, no bet. You might try playing a lopsopflop with an overpair. 2) If you're about to be blinded out and it is deperation time, or close to it, you would probably want to push all-in here and hope to either pick up the blinds or get called by overcards and hope to win your coin flip. If it is a cash game then I lean to the former as well. TT only plays well to a large field or heads up. | ||
