Interesting two pair hand.
 
Is there a converter for full tilt??

Anyhow, I put this hand in here:

You can see the result and what really happened but try to be objective.

I am in this situation a lot. River 3-bet good or bad? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

No reads.

I'd fold PF pretty easily. I'd also fold the flop with two people behind you. BPTK isn't good enough for a CR here IMO. I don't like the river 3-bet either really. Though it's a little closer because he could have AK/AQ

tou should fold preflop. I definetly would not raise the flop, because all you have is bottom pair. I think you may have gotten lucky on the river but i dont like the way you played this hand.

I must confess. I didn't play this hand [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] My friend did and asked my advice --> I decided to put it here [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

edit: but is this so bad? If I calculated correctly I am getting 8-1 on the flop. The pf-reiser might continuate bet with AK for example. If I can isolate him with a c/r I think it is a good play??

I played this hand actually. I must agree with you guys that my call from big blind pre flop was probably a mistake, since there was a significant risk to be dominated with A4 against the raiser and I was drawing to three outs. However, I am certain that my play was correct after the flop. I immediately put the pf raiser on AK/AQ/AJ or a big pair. Action on the flop after my check was: check-check-(continuation) bet and there was a flush draw on board so I had to raise, calling was out of the question, since someone could have been drawing to flush and I had to charge them 2 bets. Against AK/AQ/AJ I knew I was ahead and if the raiser had had a big pair he would have re-raised and I could have folded. Turn was J and he didn't re-raise so I knew he had either AK/AQ and I re-raised for value with the best hand, easy re-raise since I thrusted my read. He couldn't have been playing AT so passively.

Check-raise is of course quite aggressive play with BPTK but I like that play if I suspect I am against unimproved overcards and I am ready to fold later if it seems that I am wrong.

Preflop play sucks, Don't do that ever again or you will be in for a nice little red number under pt "A4o".

Post flop is prefecto.

I don't like much of this hand. I think you are being results orientated.

True

You're not getting 8:1 if you raise. You could be dominated by AT here too. I would give this hand 4 outs on the flop. Getting 8:1, that makes for a pretty clear fold in my book. If you were heads-up this would probably be OK, but against 3 opponents? Muck it.

The problem with this logic is that you're not the only one who can checkraise here. Someone else could be planning to checkraise their ten, in which case you're in a pretty bad spot. Even if they just call with it, you won't know where you stand.
