WSOP $1500

V1: ~16K
V2: ~14K
Hero: 8,200

Blinds 100/200/25

V1 UTG+1 Raises to 600. Fairly active. Has only showed down Aces vs. Kings though. Seems to always follow up his raises with c-bets.

V2 SB Calls. Very loose.

I'm in the BB with KcTc and I call. I think my image is tight. I've only played 1 hand in the last 45 minutes.

Flop: Td 3d 2s.

Checked to Raiser who bets 1,000. SB Calls. I call.

Should I have raised?

Turn Js. Is this a good spot to lead out and represent a big hand protecting himself against straight and flush draws?

Check raise flip for sure with your stack size. Pot is 3800 which is half your stack. You might even get action from a worse ten because the board is so wet.
Bad turn, as played I wouldn't lead it.

Flop can't be a fold....can you explain how we are getting away from tpgk there?

I just dont think our equity 3way is that great here, and going into c/c mode vs these two likely ranges when maybe 5 cards give us playability ott, is just likely spewing, imo.
If we had some read on sb, where he is calling hands like QT-T9o pre, i guess it changes things a bit, but no read was given

Both villains are loose. The board is wet and villain 1 can easily be cbetting. I say raise here and hope that villain 1 puts you on a draw and calls with a mid pair if he's even that strong.

The pot is 50% of your stack. I say you make your stand here. If you're no good that sucks, onto the next one.

If we are ck-folding T32 two tone with KT here against a "100% c-bettor" and a "very loose" player, then shouldn't we just fold pre? Check-folding seems horrendous given the reads listed.

+1 to GII on the flop.

On the turn, check. If there is then a bet and a call or bet and a raise back to you, throw it away. If there's a bet and a fold in front of you, consider calling. Your hand has showdown value and you're closing the action. If there's a check and a bet in front of you, toss it because you're screwed with a raise behind.

Lol at checkfold flop. I think it's ok to cr/get it in with the dead-ish money from SB, but check-calling is standard. Definitely don't do anything stupid on the turn.
