UTG was weak pretty much betting flops when he hit and check folding when he didn't. I raised to isolate and take it down post. after all the calls is betting the ace and giving up to resistance ok here?PokerStars 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (4 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FCP)Preflop: Hero is Button with 8 , T .

I'm not a short handed player.Your attempt to isolate failed. I think you should give up on the C-bet when everyone comes along.

I would think shorthanded the chances of someone having an ace would be less so I should c-bet being I raised pre. I'm not even close to what I would call being "good" at LH though so maybe I'm off?

Remember to evaluate the information you get through your action. You raised p/f, everyone called. The likelihood that there is an A out is higher now, based on their calls, than when you started the hand. Also, shorthanded big card hands are better starting hands than suited connectors. You will often times have poor odds for your draws based on fewer players at the table.

I wouldn't c-bet into 3 others here. 2, I would.Fwiw, SH hands go in the SH forum. I didn't notice if the rest were 6-handed or less, but I'll move this one, and others which fall into the SH category.

yeah sorry Zach it was same full ring tables just became shorthanded. Thanks for the insight on the C-bet

[Zach6668 513]

Fwiw, I'd like the c-bet a bit more if we at least had a backdoor flush draw or something, but we've got nothing here, lol.

Raising with Ten-High in a loose limit game in which we can almost always expect someone to see showdown with us just doesn't make much sense to me.I don't think you should make a habit of this.I would do it in a No-Limit game though.--CM

CM, your analysis doesn't jive with the reads provided in the OP. Furthermore, we're in a 4 handed situation here, and I think it's perfectly reasonable to be opening a hand like T8s from the button.

I'm playing this for value once we get 4-way family to the flop, and we have none on the flop.FWiW, I bet like a monkey here way too often as well. Less tables for me, please.
