A few suited A\'s from the CO
 
I've just reached 10000 hands at 5/10 and rather than post a stats thread i'm going to post loads of simple hands to check i have the basics right. Please bare with me.

Hand 1

is this a correct peel, would anyone raise the turn?

Hand 3

Not sure this is the correct way to play these hands vs aggressive opps. Any better line, like say c/r flop, or c/c flop and c/r either turn or river if i hit?

Hand 1: Fine
Hand 2: Call down.
Hand 3: I check the turn sometimes, but betting is probably just as optimal. River fold looks fine.

I would probably check turn hand 3, but I agree w/ spy dog.

Re: A few suited A\'s from the CO
 
i figured most of these are going to be played reasonably well and it seems so given your response. Just thinking about possible different lines i could take, hand one, would you ever raise the turn? Hand two, are you calling even if a club hits? Hand 3, as both opps are aggressive and CO will probably bet here if i check, could i either check-raise as with my flush cards + overcard i have enough to do so, or given i check-call can i check-raise this turn. It looks strong to c/c, c/r and given i now have an extra few outs for my gutshot plus they may fold.

The only different line i would consider is a turn raise in Hand 1. He prob has a peice of this board though and being 3bet would suck.

I bet the turn in hand 3 in order to buy the button.

Re: A few suited A\'s from the CO
 
I agree with spydog.... just adding:

I bet turn in hand 3, button has been very aggressive and is probably checking this through pretty rarely. At least if I do the betting I have a tiny bit of fold equity. If just the button folds I can then usually take a free showdown.

hand 1.
cap that sh.t preflop with quickness. easy cap w/ a nice hand AND position for me.
flop, raise it.
turn, raise it.
river, prob raise, but maybe just call... if u do raise, you really need to lay it down for a third bet (ppl just dont bluff there), so if u dont want to risk not seeing a showdown, just call is fine.

hand 2.
play so far is obvious. after u get checkraised i just call down and raise riv if u fill, obviously.

hand 3.
play up to river is fine. i bet turn 100%... river is intersting. that bet from the BB is really bizarre... hes representing a T? we are supposed to be believe that?
looks v possible that he is an idiot make some ridic bluff w/ J8ish. i think u need to strongly consider raising to prevent button from overcalling. of course that is kinda expensive (and quite the parlay since button is a big donkey and could make an idiotic, but "correct" coldcall w/89), but i still like it.

Wow, loads of questions. What else would you cap here? If i cap an i just firing away until shown aggression? If he leads on this flop am i raising?

Do you call if the river brings a four flush?

I thought bb's bet interesting, if i raise here obv button has a hard time calling with say 77, but does my raise fold out a pair from the bb.

I did think about this line, but the guy only raises 10% preflop. Against his 3-betting range our hand doesn't look great. Of course this all depends on a read for how he plays in blind steal/re-steal situations, so a 3-bet preflop is possibly a good idea.

On the turn we have a big draw but the board fits with many potential holdings and it would really suck to get 3-bet.
