1/2 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (10 handed)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy Elephant 0.60 by www.pokerstrategy.com.

Preflop: Hero is SB with T♠, T♥
3 folds, MP1 raises, 4 folds, Hero 3-bets, BB folds, MP1 calls.

Raised preflop because only one player raised infront of me and all others folded.
Flop: (7.00 SB) Q♠, T♣, T♦ (2 players)
Hero bets, MP1 calls.

Almost fell out of my chair, when I flopped quads. I thought about slow playing but figured since he raised preflop I could at least get one or two bets out of him.
Turn: (4.50 BB) K♦ (2 players)
Hero bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 caps, Hero calls.

I figured he either had a straight or full house at this point so I bet everything I could, and he kindly raised everyone of my bets.
River: (12.50 BB) 5♠ (2 players)
Hero bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 calls.

Don't know why he stopped at $6 on the river, he only had $3.50 left in his stack at that point but oh well.
Final Pot: 18.50 BB

Results follow (highlight to see):
MP1 shows a straight, ace high (Jh Ac)
Hero shows four of a kind, tens (Ts Th)

Hero wins with four of a kind, tens (Ts Th)

Best hand of the day for me!

NH, not hard to play I guess . I think it is important that you don't slowplay these hands, if he has nothing you can't win a lot more and if he does have something you miss a lot of value.


Thanks... It definately felt good when he was raising/reraising me on the turn.

easy 3-bet preflop and postflop it´s quite easy to play as well
imo the most important thing at these stakes is to not be too tricky.
just fire, fire, fire; especially oop.
i would even 3-bet the flop directly if he raises. he might be doing this to get a free card on the turn which would be horrible for you (of course you won´t get oudrawn very often ;) but you might loose a lot of value)

river is interesting though. the 5 is a total blank and i think he has to bet every hand again on the river which he capped on the turn.
i just can´t see him checking behind here so i think you should check/raise because he might only call many of his hands if you donk again because he can´t have a T (^^) and the other possible made hands maybe aren´t strong enough to raise again (except QQ or KK which are unlikely and the money would go in anyways).
if you think that he would raise a straight again i think bet/3-bet is best because i can´t see him 3-betting your check/raise.
guess the hand isn´t that easy as it seems on the first look
imo his most likely holding is a straight so i guess it depends on your reads. do you think he will raise a straight again after the turn got capped and you donked the river again ? remeber that the board is paired and you 3-bet preflop so imo this board is quite scary for a straight after the given action.

hope i didn´t write too much crap ^^. kinda confused about my own thoughts now :P

//edit: my final decission would be check/raise against unknown but i´m still not sure
