  1. Ok, I realized I played this horribly bad, but let me first explain a little bit why I played it the way I did.

    First of all, I 3 bet pre to try and squeeze one of the villains out, I would rather play 10 10 here in position heads up. I get a called by both villains pre, and see JJ7 board. Here is my issue to start, and why i played it so defensively. I have no reads on either player, all I know is that UTG raiser has played very tight, and the UTG + 3 had only been there for maybe 10 hands, folded all of them, so I have no assumptions of their calling ranges to my 3 bet.

    I'm wondering how would yo have played it differently? And would you always Cbet flop? I need lots and lots of help, losing this pot really hurt my chances of going deep...

  2. as played you have to bet the flop, esp in position. with no reads they are not flatting JJ+ 3 handed. I bet 1/3 pot here, while preparing to call any repop and jam turn.
  3. 11k in the pot pre i probably just jam preflop. 3 betting might fold some worse hands like 77-TT that would potentially call your shove

    as played id bet the flop now and get it in because if you check it becomes pretty difficult to play and there are plenty of bad turns in the deck. after they both check the flop and turn i cant imagine youre beat, so i would definitely valuebet the turn
     
  4. how did u come up with utg player is tight? u have #'s to support?

    id likely be jamming pre,
    but im def betting flop and/or turn
  5. Don't know that my advice is worth much but my take is this: you've already committed a good portion of your stack to this hand before the flop and you saw a pretty favorable flop for your 1010 so i'd be doing everything i could to end the hand right there before someone draws out on me (which as you know is unfortunately exactly what happened); my guess is ifyou had shoved or made aggressive bet after that flop you'd have taken it down right there.....
  6. u haave to bet flop here !!!! if u want to check flop for pot control fine but , then at least bomb turn when he checks twice - thats it hand over
