Two hands. No reads, played a few hands with both villians, I would gather they play 30-40 percent of their hands. Hand one, anybody fold or play differently? And hand two, anybody play it the same or take a different line (with UTGs cap in Hand 2 I thought she might be fast playing a flush)?

One thing I forgot to mention.

Hand 1, I know the villian plays alot of hands but seems to raise with the goods. Thats why no 3-bet preflop. I played maybe twenty hands with him at this point, so maybe that doesnt mean much.

Anytime he did raise however he did have a premium hand.

Hand 1:

You missed a bet preflop. AQs is a powerhouse; you should be kicking it up a notch.

Flop looks standard. Turn, too.

On the river, I think you could bet if you think MP1 is capable of folding two pair; otherwise, checking through is best. Well done.

Hand 2:

Preflop is standard.

Flop is perfect. Barring the unlikely flush, you're way ahead, and even if someone does have the flush, you've got about a 1/3 chance of hitting a full house by the river. All bets are for value.

By the turn, you're heads up; either he has it or he doesn't. If he has it, you've got 10 outs to a winner. If he doesn't, you sure as hell don't want to give him a free look at a river spade. Lead the turn, call a raise.

Given how it played out, the river is standard. I hope you were planning to make a crying call if UTG had bet.

Im absolutly calling a river bet. I havent come up against the situation in Hand 2 pretty much ever, I knew I should have lead the turn, but I was suprised that she capped it.

Hand 1: I always always 3-bet AQs but I really felt like he might have me beat from the get go. Still I think I need to 3 bet it.

(it has been a bad bad day at my 5/10 and 3/6 tables. So I took a break, it was affecting my play).
