3 hands I need help with
 

Blinds 50/100 Hero has 2140T. Villain has 1699T. This hand happened just after the first break. Background on villain he had tried to bluff the last hand and lost 1000t. Folded to me in MP3 I have JJ I make it 350 to go. Villain comes back over the top for 1566. Villain could be making a play here as he just bluffed the last hand. Making it about 1200 to me. Hero?????


Second hand. Blinds 75/150. Hero has T2365 after posting SB. Folded to villain in MP2 who has T1403. Villain raises to 450. Folded to hero who has 88. Villain has not done anything crazy. He is not a great player but not a bad one either. Hero ?????

Last hand blinds 25/50. Hero has T2370.
Folded to hero in MP3 with 10d9d. Hero limps in. SB completes Villain BB(T2024) checks. Pot is150.
Read on villain is he is very new to the game. Very straighforward bets when he has something folds to any bet if he doesn't have anything. Has check folded many flops he has limped in to.
Flop comes 755 two diamonds.
Checked to hero who bets 80.
SB fold. Villain calls. Pot now 310
Turn comes Qd.
checked to hero who bets 150. Villain calls
Pot now 610.
River comes As.
Villain bets 525, hero?????

hand 1: what position is villain in? it doesn't matter b/c you call, just curious.

hand 2: close. i think you have too much hand to fold. if you fold and he has AK (assuming BB folds) you've given up quite a bit of equity. so i like a push or call. if you think there's any chance he'll fold to a push (he shouldn't), push. otherwise, i think the best line is to call here, and c/r any non-A flop (may be a check/call b/c he'll have less than a pot sized bet) and check-fold any A flop.

hand 3: villain has ~1200 behind. i call. there aren't too many hands that villain will call a push with that are behind - 5x is probably the only one. however, i think villain will have 5x or maybe a smaller flush too often for you to fold. or maybe AK and he played it like an idiot, as new players sometimes do.

Villain is CO. Well I ended up folding that hand. I know too weak tight. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
