villian is pretty loose, and agressive enough to raise the midpairs, when he leads the flop its prob anypair ... am I passing up value by checking behind on the river?

I dont think you're getting called by worse hands in Hand 2.

Hand 1 -- were you waiting to raise a safe turn?

hand1: yes I was waiting, he's prob leading out with a club, a pair, or something like 76

hand #2: why not 3-bet that flop?

Re: AA HU on 4flush board, and A6o HU easy river bet?
 

Hand 1: I feel a little bad calling down here, but don't think I could fold it. If villain were not aggressive, I think I'd let it go -- pot is not that big.

Hand 2: My initial reaction was that I would check behind, but I think you get paid off here a fair amount, actually, so I say bet it. If he had Tx, I think he would have led the turn. More likely, if he has a hand, it's 4x or 6x, which he'd call.

um you mean raise?? I think that scares all the hands I beat, and costs me a bunch extra when behind.

Re: AA HU on 4flush board, and A6o HU easy river bet?
 

Hand 1: I honestly think the river bet screams, "I have at least one club," but I don't think I could lay down ze Aces for one bet on the river. I do think an aggressive player could easily bet the turn without a club, but after being called I'm not sure that he just doesn't freeze up on the river. I make too many loose river calls, I think, and I'm trying to find folds...but I don't know if I've got the stones here to fold.

Hand 2: I check the river. May be weak.

Hand 1:
Since Villain is aggy, I like waiting until the turn because there's a good chance he'll lead again. I think we gotta fold the turn in this size pot though. 1/4 of the time, you'll be playing the board by the river, and just by combinatrix he'll have a club ~1 time in 3ish.

Hand 2: I think we're best pretty often here. Villain is folding very often but may pay off with a worse pair, and it's unlikely he's drawn out on us based on the lack of aggression. So I'd value-bet.

Re: AA HU on 4flush board, and A6o HU easy river bet?
 

Hand 1: I'm raising the flop but otherwise I like it.

Hand 2: Definite river value bet.

Re: AA HU on 4flush board, and A6o HU easy river bet?
 

Hand 1 is fine. Hand 2 I bet river and raise flop. Raise flop because I'm raising alot of flops there.
