Bison please fix the hand converter to work with PP again

A yes or no will do (or a yes you idiot). Feedback please.

I think the converter messed up the preflop action.

I'm not completing in the SB with A6 if there will be 4 to the flop. I need a stronger ace, like A6s or A9o.

Flop: ok.

Turn: bet is ok.

River: I would check-call and hope to collect from a busted draw. There are not enough worse hands that call here to make this a worthwhile value bet.

Thank you. Short-handed I often am lost for what hands to play out of the SB and on the Button (and I end up playing weak aces probably more than I should).

I agree with your river analysis.

I'm not usually completing A6o to play 4-way with this blind structure.

Why did a strong player call the turn at 3-1 after letting the flop check through? Probably because he has a six or a diamond draw.

You should bet the river to collect from another six or a flush draw with a four. I'm guessing he actually had 75 for his raise.

I can't see the villain limping with a 75. The more I think about it, the more I think he was either slowplaying a set, or bluffing me out with a busted draw?

Anyone else care to comment?

Does a sharp player, possible 2+2er, open limp any hands in the cutoff?

Sorry, Hand Converter messed up the hand... UTG limped.

I would have looked him up on this one. A sharp player would not slow play a set on that flop (two spades.) Also, I don't think he would just call on a turned set (plus he probably would not have overlimped preflop with 66.) The only thing that might make sense is a rivered set? More often, he's just reading you for a marginal hand and stealing the pot.

Actually, if he would limp with 75s, that hand makes sense since he has a double gutter on the turn.
