Both of these are on Pacific Poker 100 NL, with a full table.
Hand 1:
Pacific Poker 100 NL, full table
No reads on villain.
Hero is MP with Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gifK /images/graemlins/heart.gif and opens for 4xBB raise, folded to BB who min-raises, Hero calls
Flop: J 9 Q all /images/graemlins/heart.gif(Pot ~12)
Villain leads for $5, Hero calls
Turn: blank (Pot ~22)
Villain checks, Hero bets $12, villain calls
River: blank (Pot ~45)
Villain checks, Hero ???
Here's my thoughts on this one, he's played this hand pretty scared for min-raising preflop ... If he has AA or KK, he doesn't have the ace of hearts for sure, but theres still a possibility he wants a cheap showdown.
If he was going to pull a move on me, he would've done it on the turn.
If I bet here, it's probably one of those situations where only better hands call, and weaker hands fold.
Hand 2:
This one is more about tweaking my betting for max value. I'm pretty much positive I have the best hand here and I'm trying to get max value of donk villain.
Hero is in BB with AK /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
MP calls, LP min-raises to $2, SB calls, Hero calls, MP calls.
Flop: K 2 3 rainbow (Pot ~7.50)
SB bets $3, Hero raises to $9 (good number to keep him in the hand, but get the pot heads up? hows my pot control?), MP and LP fold
Turn: 9 (Pot ~ 25)
SB checks, Hero bets $15, SB calls
River: J (Pot ~ 55)
SB checks, Hero bets $20
