Live $5/$10 NL: Going Broke in a Limped Pot?
$1000 eff. My image TAG grinder, a bit aggro, showed a bluff in the last 5 mins. I have Td6c in BB. Bad LAG in UTG+1 limps, Nit1 in MP1 limps, LAG limps CO, Nit2 in SB completes, I check.
Flop: Th6s3h Pot ~ $50 Nit1 leads $50, I make it $200, UTG+1 folds, Nit1 makes it $500, folds to me.
Can we find a fold here?

Call me a nit but this is one of those spots where the guy always has 33 or huge cooler against the one cmbo or 66 or tt, ask yourself, Is he ever taking that line with an overpair or a flush draw? if the answer is no then puke a bit and fold.
I guess you made a little mistake - Nit2 leads 50 not 1.
People will overlimp small pocket pairs and suited connectors and small suited aces (online). But when your raise donk and get a reraise from 3rd guy and he sees 2ppl involved in the pot with strong action already and still reraises, you are up against 33 and 66, so your equity 14%. Fold.
You know what nits do. Now you know what you should do against them.
I think this was a fold against his range. There's nothing I'm ahead of. But I'm not good enough to make that fold (yet). So I called and he had 54s for a huge combo draw and it was an almost perfect coinflip.
Hum. Usually not folding.
"$1000 eff."
"Nit1 makes it $500" ... Nit is IP. If he quickly 3B to that sizing, and depending on live reads, I'd usually weight him a lot on strong draws (ok they have big equity versus us, but that's still enough to stack off). Vilain reps 4 combos of sets, TT is like impossible ; and I don't think that would be a standard to 3b such a huge hand in a limped pot when vilain is IP and almost sure to be HU if he calls the XR. I've never played in the US, but from my european experience, I'd expect most bad players / nits to overplay strong flush draws (including nut flush draws versus which we have stronger equity) way more than playing a set fast IP (basically would expect a set to either call the check-raise, 3b very small, or 3b shove... 3b to 500$ in itself doesn't look the strongest to me).
I'd base my decision on live tells a lot, as always in live games, but basically if vilain quickly makes it to 500, then I'd shove (or call flop / donk blank turn, why not right). If vilain tanks then makes it to 500, that looks stronger IMO.
Nit wouldn't flat my raise with 33. There's a flush draw and a str8 draw there, he'd be scared. Line is very consistent for nit with 33.
I was def in the F camp, but MrSneeze, as usual, I think has changed my mind. Very nice post.
Made a mistake in description. Change "Nit1 leads $50" to "Nit2 leads $50".
theres no point in raising nit , calldown , u haz 16%~ EQ vs 33 which is 3c and TT/66 is only 1c
by raising u turn ur EQ into bluff , and even vsstraightflushdraw u not ahead
Actually, there's no point in calling.
villain is limping 66 and 33, i wouldn't put TT in villains limping range. lots of combo draws villain can have, i gii here...
