Hand#1 Calling out FPS here bro! Raise the damn flop already, look at you on the turn, LOST!

#2, Preflop fine, perfect relative position, consider donking out, but c/r is fine. On the turn, you have nearly enough effective odds to call to fill, for sure add in IO, easy call. Reevaluate the river.

#3, interesting, but he could have a hand like 88, the flop is drawn up and you are closing the action. Call the flop, evaluate the turn planing to raise. As played, raise the turn.

#4 4-flush board, youve had the flow the whole time....hrm, i bet this in a LIVE game with black-KK over pair (J high flop, like yours), 4-diamond on the river OOP and got called by just a jack no-diamond. I think you can easily bet/fold.

1, 2, 3: agree with Joe.

4: agree with toni mostly just because his hand doesn\'t look like any pair which I would expect to raise the flop. His hand looks like a draw and the draw hit.

i think posting 1 and in 1 thread would be much better. Makesthings easier and discussion dont will get confused, at least 2 but 4 is too much imho and 1 is best.

Ok in hand 1 what di you want to accomplish with the Flop call? The Pot i big and getting bigger so please protect it vs gutshot Hands and backdoor draws and its not like villain can only have AA KK or QQ in this Hand, as played raise the Turn! Pls no Slowplay in multiway Hands until you the unbreakable nuts.

hand 2 is an easy calldown. Not much u can do besides that, folding is out of question and u dont have enough equity to 3 bet i think, i dodnt stove it but i would be suprised, i think u need 66% eq.

Hnad 3 i think i cap the flop here, as played i go to sd wich means i call but dont have a real reasoning why, mostlyx because i dont want to get 3 bet or getting c/r on the River


Hand i think I like c/f vs him. I dont think hes the type of player to bluffbet this River and i would be verys suprised if he calls with something that u beat.

I normally take notes only for unusual play like if a tag never raised TP or a fish raised a draw; so the lack of notes in these hands means they played as their stats would indicate.

If this annoys ppl I can separate them but mostly my hand posts aren\'t interesting, they\'re just basic \'this was right, wasn\'t it?\' kinds of posts. This is actually I think the first one I played nearly all different than the replies said to so I have a couple more questions.



#1

Apologies for not including info but co coldcalls and clearly is an idiot (a 60/5 type); so I wasn\'t even paying attn to him, this is between me and sb isn\'t it? Is waiting for turn raise FPS because co\'s in there? And/or you guys definitely don\'t consider top two pair the nuts, effectively HU vs. 36/22/2.1?


#2

I wasn\'t wondering about calling turn, I was wondering about raising; I take it it\'s a mistake to think a 24/18/2.3 does this w/position and AQ, KQ, KJ or KK/AA?


#3

Although the 9 didn\'t thrill me I did raise turn and got 3-bet - is this fold-worthy to a 28/21/2.1 or after that kind of action I\'m practically committing to showdown?
