hand 1 is standard, hand 2 ...

Thanks, I'm in the middle of "the noob's first 200BB downswing" sorry if these seem routine.

Re: A few hands
 

I'd raise the river in hand 2, Td completed a lot of draws, but he I'd hope he had 2 pair and you could get the overcall from the guy inbtween.

Re: A few hands
 

These both look right to me on every street.

barring any extraordinary reads, I don't see how any other play on ANY street could be even close to correct.

f me. I'm doubting every damned play I make.

I'll get a handle of this variance one day.

Re: A few hands
 

hand 1: why not check/call this flop.
-When you bet you can get raised, which sucks.
-When you check and its to bets cold, you can fold.

hand 2: good I think, maybe cap the river, but I think he hit his runner runner flush.

The flop in #1 is good to attempt a steal at, 1 high card and rainbow = [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] You have to take shots at pots to improve your win rate. Although if called, I really cant see being ahead that often.

Re: A few hands
 

Ok but thing is you'll always get called by 1 or 2 of those 50+/5 types (atleast on 3/6 that is). Betting out with bottom pair, getting called,then what to do when you don't improve on the turn.
When you check/call you can check/raise de turn when you improve or fold UI.
