I think I make it 75 pre. Assuming you still get the one caller, I bet 140 into 180 otf. I'm sure Darsum raises here and it goes in either ott or river but you could exercise a bit more pot control IMHO.
Its very early in a T here. By betting fairly large pre, you will bloat the pot quicker and could get committed to it with not so great hands. Normally its 3x plus i bb for each limper so 80 ould be fine. Remember early doors players set mine and play suited connectors in order to win that big pot early on so always keep in mind that someone could have trips especially when they call big pot sized bets on the flop. Remember your opponent limped from HJ then called a big raise. That suggests either small pocket pairs or suited connectors.
You should have a plan before you go into the pot ...then when the flop comes...ask "do i want a small pot or big pot?" and act accordingly. You need to balance your bet sizing with your stack size, i think, but it will come with playing more, i'm sure.
You'd have made a fantastic hero fold to fold his raise on the Turn but by that stage, it'd be wrong anyway. You'd have to be psychic i think. Less than 1% would have got away from that. Maybe not even that as its early doors, low buy-in etc so you had no choice really. Just a cooler really but try to be aware of what he could be playing with the info you have ie his position, his stack size and the fact that he limped then called your raise. that suggested that he had a hand which needed to catch well.

Yes, fair points BUT and its a big BUT.....
I don't think that the player in q would like it advertised on the forum about his betting pattern/hand ranges so specifically....
RLT, its new for you but cancel out the name of the player in question in future. They won't mind it then but if their play is shown along with their hand it gives us info on them. Poker is a game where the more info we have then the better decisions we make (supposedly).
Maybe we need sky to put a messge board of how to put hands up along with points made about
a) players in the pot and their type(TAG etc...)
b) previous play before this pot
c) your image to table.......
Without this info you may be making assumptions that aren't correct. Also it may justify their behaviour.
The likes of Beaneh has been stating this, quite correctly, from time after time. Maybe a layout of info to include along with the hand history could be put forward by the likes of him or a group of experienced players that SKY could paste up at the start of the clinic
