Default Critique my play, again

i do feel that this is what we should be doing. being that we have a fair amount of outs against just about any hand that he could have with the exception of Q10 in which i would only have 3 to chop. but that is unlikely.

so i want to see what you guys think, and if this is a spewwy play that i should not continue doing.

Post flop is fine. I usually fold JTo from the sb though. If anything I'd rather 3bet than call.

Besides what everyone else said about not callign TJo Preflop, my usual line would be similar but i wouldnt shove 3 bet id 3 bet for more information as its a fairly co-ordinated board and they could easily have you outkicked or 2 paired or even have a made straight, all of which your really drawing to 8 outs. But if they 4 bet shove i would be more inclined to fold.

Just wondering after reading the other responses why shove 3 betting is fine, you may gain some fold equity but it seems a bit iffy at these stakes as people rarely fold after reraising?

Even with 8 outs you're almost never correct to 3-bet fold. In this spot even if we min 3bet I don't think we can fold to a shove since we'd be getting about 2-1 to call all-in (which is more than enough when I doubt we're less that 40% against his range -- too lazy to check though ).

Anyway, a small 3bet is just bad. We still have to get it all in, but we just lost a ton of fold equity. What information would we have gained anyway?

when playing with 5 you guys fold J10 to a CO raise? What if it was suited?
what if it was a button raise? folding J10 to a normal raiser when in the sb seems a bit nitty.

am i really way off in thinking this?

JTs I would 3bet usually, sometimes call, sometimes fold (if the raiser is short I'm folding). JTo is really a much worse hand than its suited counterpart. You're really now just looking to make a straight, and it's a hand that's often dominated by a CO opening range -- TT+/AJ/AT/KJ/KT/QJ/QT are all well within their range and all have you in really bad shape.

That's why I'd really rather 3bet (since a lot of those hands fold to a 3bet) or fold with JTo, usually I'm folding since most people at micro stakes aren't stealing all that often.

Calling preflop is actually really bad here. I wouldn't even call in position with TJo let a lone OOP. I don't want to be mean, but if you keep doing this you will lose a lot of money. FOLD PREFLOP

On the flop, you don't have a lot of choice. You could call, but it's not like you could fold the turn, so you might as well be the one getting fold equity and shoving.
