1/3
1 limp (fish), hero (co) raise 18 w/ TT no d, limper call
pot ~40
flop A94r
x/xb
turn Kdd
x/xb
river Qd
vil bet 16, hero fold
should i call here? pot odds are good and my line looks very weak, so villain could bluff here to get me off my exact hand type TT-. i also considered bluff raising to rep JT and block villains bluffcatchers with a T, however, i dont think that i can get enough folds.

I don't want to put myself in that situation so I would probably fold to punish myself for failing to play properly.
Ever time against a fish, I CB that flop with 2nd pair. I have position and last aggro, so if he defends, I'm probably beat and give up. But most of the time he folds the flop as he can't have a decent hit or draw.

I like betting flop 1/3 for equity denial. Villain can honestly value bet a K or Q pretty liberally the river.
There are 16 overcards that can come out on either turn or river, so more likely than not it is going to happen by the river.
As played, it is close. Maybe lean towards fold without the diamond. Villain can have a lot of junk in their range too. Though. I would just rather not get to this point.

I'll assume non-short stacks.
I'm fine with preflop.
The larger my pocket pair on A high boards HU where I'm the preflop raiser in position, the more I feel WA/WB and can simply check back the flop. However, the smaller my overpair, the more vulnerable it is, so the more cool I'd be leaning towards a bet. So I'd probably lean to a small bet here with TT.
Think I'm ok just attempting to get to showdown on this turn card.
I think I'm ok with the river fold. Like, everything beats us. So we're basically hoping he is making a hail mary attempt at stealing the pot with like 87cc, but not enough people bluff like that in general.
