Texas Calculatem and Poker Office Blog

I've had a bit of feedback about the TT hand that I discussed in the last post.

Little Acorn Man, with his NL outlook, recommends a bet to see where I am. For example, a raise will tell me that I'm probably behind.

Mad MadMat wrote at Poker-Strategy.org:

In Limit - pot is offering 10:1 at this point, and since we raised preflop I think I'd be inclined to bet out again with a continuation bet, if no ones holding an Ace you should take the pot there on a drawless board. you only need them all to fold one time in 10 here for this bet to be profitable.

Both arguments are good. So I guess betting is, in general atleast, the right move.

Looking further back, I'm now questioning whether or not TT is a good hand to raise when 4 players have already limped.

Texas Calculatem recommended a raise.

Small Stakes Hold'Em recommends a raise.

Poker Stove estimates that I have around 36% pot equity against random hands. But assuming the limpers have random hands is a poor assumption.

Please lend me your feedback if you have any opinions on this matter.
