HAND 2: Villian seems pretty bad got trippled up a few hads ago when he back doored a small flush, he bet got raised allin by guy with nothing and a third guy called with str8. Anyway, I decided he was prob on draw and that the ace would scare him on turn unless he had one.

Just wanted to say that I think you should be raising more preflop with your stack, with the low raises you make it too cheap for people to try and double up on you.

Also why do you rasie more preflop with TT than KK?

[buddha]

when you raise do you a. bet what they'll call, b. bet in proportion to your stack, or some combination of factors?

Also, do you add to raise with limpers in front? As for bigger raise with TT, i tend to vary my raises from 4-6BB in random fashion.

[krazyace5]

I raise more if I get a huge stack maybe $5-$6, I dont want them busting my aces with some garbage. I don't get a huge stack very often but I have gotten busted with small suited connectors because I did not raise enough preflop.

I guess I just always raise the same no matter what position, # of limpers, or what I hold. It works for me,
I was just wondering.

Hand 1:
Pre-flop: Ugly raise, you're making it cheap for them to outdraw you and you're OOP. Make it 6 to go.
Flop: Nice bet, but I think that since he isn't very aggressive post-flop, you can let that go.
Turn: If you were intending to fold here, let it go on the flop.

Hand 2:
Pre-flop: It seems that you raise more with mid-PPs than you do big PPs. Standardize your raise.
Flop: 15 would be fine here, 20 is unnecessary.
Turn: I like your bet here.
River: Don't push, if he missed a draw he'll fold and if he has you beat he'll call. Maybe he'll fold a K.

Hope this helps.

on hand two do you call if he sets you allin?

[tbach24]

Nope.
