Hello everybody

Hand from 11$ deepstacks MTT from pokerstars.

My main doubt on this hand is about the size of my bet on the flop.

My read on the oponent is as loose passive (althought it maybe doesnt matter much here)

Here is the hand:

Known Players:
[tg]Position_Stack: hands/vp$ip/RaisePreflop/AF/WTS/ORL/BBvsSteal/W$SD;UTG3_6373:///////;Hero_12722:///////;CO_8470:///////;BB_30238:///////;[/tg]
150/300 No-Limit Hold'em, Ante 25 (9 Players)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy.com Elephant 0.85.1360.2169 by www.pokerstrategy.com

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A :spade:, T :spade:
UTG2 folds, UTG3 calls, 2 fold, Hero calls, CO calls, 2 fold, BB checks

Flop: (1575) T :heart:, 2 :heart:, 2 :diamond: (4 Players)
BB checks, UTG3 checks,
Hero bets 1050, CO folds,
BB raises 2100 to 3150, 2 fold, BB gets uncalled bet back

Final Pot: 3675

I usualy always bet 2/3 of the pot on a board with possibility of flush draw, to make flush chasers pay it well, but on this case as the main menace to my hand comes from a 2, should i have only bet 1/2 of the pot to see where i stand?

Thank you for your opinions.

Greetings.

I think the problem is not isolating preflop. You save yourself a lot of pain by being the aggressor and being in position.

Should I raise with A10s preflop?
I try to follow the starting hand tables from PokerStrategy... and it doesnt come there.

isoraise preflop is better ... then u mosttimes play against one

as played
I prefer to check the flop and look later streets ... I see not many weaker hands calling if u bet the flop ... and there are just 12 cards u dont like to see
so i play it SD-bounced

as played u have to fold ... he have 2x or FD ... overall ur behind
