Re: help me
Firstly preflop is as standard as it gets not raising here is a serious mistake, so I wouldnt listen to rockboys advice.
On the flop I probably just fold this without a decent read otherwise you...

Re: T3o Awkwardly played 2nd pair
Another reason I'd be more inclined to check fold on this board is that it has 2 cards in the playing zone. This means that there is likely to be hands like QJ or some kind of gutshot that players...

Re: How to play middle pair hands?
Why are you checking the flop?
You only go for a checkraise if there is a very loose player who nearly always autobets when checked to.
Bet out if you get raised then you can choose when to...

Re: i openlimp on the button with Axo
Why arent you check/folding this flop you have nothing against a passive player.
Mixing a few limps into your preflop play is fine but following up with dumb postflop play like this isnt.

Re: T3o Awkwardly played 2nd pair
I check/fold this 4 way its just too weak, sure you might be best but the pot is just too small.
If I felt they were fairly tight and my image was tight then I'd bet out hoping to take it down.

Re: couple of paired board hands
1st hand I just dont think he is betting a worse hand on the river, most of these type of weak/tight players will check behind here with a worse hand.
I probably should have bet the turn as the...

Re: real men dont play hit or miss...
I'm not a big fan of calling a raise with this hand, maybe with another limper but its just not that great, you gotta make up a lot of ground when you make a set.
Also some chance you are 3bet...

Re: i dont know what im doing, do you?
Why would he call a checkraise in a tiny unraised pot with a gutshot?
The only hands I'd call with would be an overcard + gutshot and of course any sane person would raise that preflop so he...

Re: i dont know what im doing, do you?
He limps with the weak Ace so people think that he doesnt have an ace.
A TAG will automatically know that a limp doesnt mean an Ace, it usually means hey I've got a weak hand that I wanna test you...

Re: i dont know what im doing, do you?
Not raising preflop is fine but going for a checkraise and then calling a river bet is pretty bad. This board is pretty scary so betting out is more effective.
I really dont see what he is calling...

Re: Cap this turn with TP + nut flush draw?
Capping is spewing unless this guy is a LAG who would bet TP like this which I doubt.
Your draw isnt that good you likely have only 9 outs and that is if he has a set or a straight.
