A few hands later. Am I being a maniac for raising the river when they haven't shown agression earlier? I'm kicking myself when he reraises. The table seemed fairly loose, with several people in calling with high cards on scary boards.

Reraise on flop scares me into thinking of a set or two pair. I got scared and contemplated laying it down, but didn't. How should I take that flop 3-bet?

Is the river raise justifiable when the board double pairs? How scared should I be of full house there? Players seem fairly agressive.

Hand 2: Not crazy about the river raise.

Most of the other stuff looks good though. Hand 4 is weird /images/graemlins/confused.gif

[aK13]

Hand 4, don't raise the flop, you want people to stick around to pump your drawing hand. Don't raise the river, you're very likely behind.

[iNsChris]

Call hand 2river, Rest looks good.

Unlucky on alot on them, Looks like you lost most if not all? /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[istewart]

Oh wow, I thought the board in Hand 4 only had one pair. Yeah that raise is not good.

I disagree about not raising the flop though. Good time for a free card in my opinion.

Hand 1: MP3 87o, button has A9s. Button wins with a set of 9s.

Hand 2: BB has pocket 9s and wins with trip 9s.

Hand 3: BB has Q8s. He 3-bet the flop with top pair. I win with pocket 9s.

Hand 4: MP3 has Q7o. SB has A3o. None of them had a flush draw. SB wins with the better full house.
