A bunch of 1/2 hands
 

Ok, so after going off for 300 BB at 30/60, the lists died down for 1/2 and I decided to empty my account there. Here are just a bunch of hands. I won't really say anything to start off with, but some of these I think I played great and some of them sucked. I'm getting a new account soon so I don't mind showing these. Feel free to berate.

Hand 2: Opponent is good.

Is this another converter mistake?

Re: A bunch of 1/2 hands
 

hand 3. 3way, i lead.

4. seems awful w/o a crazy history.

6. i bet the turn.

7. is eh, not too sure about that one.

8 is also eh, but also, wtf.

Re: A bunch of 1/2 hands
 

Hand2 - 3 betting A9o vs a olsid player open from the CO is close. The fact that he is solid is a good arguement for mucking. you could "run it through two dimes" vs his range!

hand3 - This is a fold for me out of the SB

hand4 - the turn is spewing I think.

hand5 - very nice hand

hand6 - tough hand, I would probably call flop and fold to turn bet but bet if checked to, but your line is good, why not bet the turn and have it be last money you put in the pot?

hand 7 - I check/call this flop, but like your turn and river play. against 4 opponents with a very small pot I think leading this flop is bad.

hand8 - I think the flop call is bad.

Look at the hand right before that.

I laughed.

I deleted it from my original post, but he is pretty liberal preflop. Originally it read he was tough postflop but stole a lot. Here's a hand we played:

no way does that hand justify it. i don't think the KQo K54K hand is all that bad from him.

nice.

but the fact he is solid does mean he notes where he's at.

{AA-66, AK-A7s(A6o-A4s?), KQ-K9s, QJ-QTo, JTs, T9s}

those are right about the standard openings of a "solid" player, give a take a hand or two for personal preference...

now throw in the fact that CO knows BU will fold a good deal of his hands that the CO wants BU to fold (A8o when CO holds K9s etc..) and the CO will probably open up a bit more to J9s, J8s etc...

i agree its close, clearly, but given position and the info, wouldn't you say CO's range opens up rather than narrows down. and wouldn't that be an argument for 3betting?

I think it could be a fold as well, depending on what CO thinks about you. how much postflop have you and the solid played/how much has he seen you play postflop?

love the line about twodimes though...clearly covers this situation entirely lol.
