I'd appreciate your feedback on these two hands.
These hands were from 2 different 10/20 games at the Borgata.
Hand 1
This game was loose and passive. There was hardly any pre-flop raising.
UTG and Button were the key players in this hand.
UTG was very loose and passive. One hand I played against him, I raised the turn with top pair, He called. The board paired 2s on the river, he check-called and showed the nut straight. So he wasn't very aggressive. He also took an extremely long time to act when it was his turn.
Button was the classic calling station.
UTG limps, 3 more limpers, I call with A /images/graemlins/spade.gif 4 /images/graemlins/spade.gif, MP player (very tight player) limps, Button Limps, BB checks.
Flop: 4 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
Checked to me, I bet, MP calls, Button calls, folded to UTG who calls, one other guy calls.
Turn J /images/graemlins/club.gif
Checked to me, I check, checked around.
River 8 /images/graemlins/club.gif
Now UTG stares at the board for a long time. He reaches for his chips as though he is about to bet, but then checks (it looked like he was acting). Checked to me, I bet, button calls, UTG check-raises, I muck, button calls.
Hand 2
A loose table, but a little more aggressive.
UTG+1 was new to the table. He was playing a lot of hands and raising pre-flop frequently. Every hand he raised pre-flop and showed down was reasonable (AK, AQ, etc.)
UTG+2 was a very solid player.
MP1 was a loose passive player who was winning a lot and became LAG. Everyone else involved in the hand was pretty loose passive.
UTG+1 raises, UTG+2 3-bets, 3 cold-callers to me, I cap it on the button with QQ, BB calls, everyone else calls.
Flop: J /images/graemlins/heart.gif T /images/graemlins/spade.gif 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
Checked to me, I bet, everyone calls.
Turn: 7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
Checked to me, I check (I have no spade).
River 6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG+1 bets, I call everyone else folds.
