Anon v a tightish guy and a fish, both rather passive so far.

I was sorely tempted to fold this on the flop. These bet out moves by passive regs into a raiser and caller are just not bluffs. If the board was rainbow it would be an even easier fold.

In my humble experience this move is nearly always an overpair or a set, either way I 'm struggling to 2 outs and a pointless bdfd. I can only beat A9 which would surprise me as a holding unless it's Ah9h.

I folded but what do you guys think? Is a fold too weak on the flop? Maybe ok on the turn then? Or call down and watch for bet sizing etc?

Thanks.

I think folding TT here is way too weak with your position, we have back doors and the bet size is rather small.

Looks like a 100% call and there's a good chance on the turn we have ultimate position on the hand.

Folding flop is way too weak with a flush draw, 54, and 87 in villain's range.

If you call then turn is all about the bet size and if the other player comes along. I would call again in some situations and easily get away in others.

I completely agree, folding the flop is definitely too weak especially in position. You can control the size of the pot very well on future streets so you should be fine even if you're assuming strong ranges but no big blind overcalling preflop range should be strong enough to merit your line.

Jumping on the don't fold train. TT is such a strong hand here that my options would be between raise and call rather than fold and call.

Sets of course are possible but on this board there really shouldn't be any 2-pairs and there are no made straights or flushes possible so the value of overpairs is quite high. Since sets typically account for so few combos it's really hard for villain to be bluffing so little you can't call. It's also a spot where there's a flush draw, straight draw and villain could be leading TP 9x.

Not everyone likes money I guess.

But it's a pretty straight-forward flop-raise here with the intention of folding to a 3bet. Way too strong to fold.
