Re: Hand 3
I'm not sure of the general concensus, but personally I like the biggest pots I win in HU NL to come from trapping hands against tricky, aggressive opponents. I'm also not sure how big a pot you guys wanna play with a 10 kicker for that matter. The two outcomes that are going to happen the most often with only top pair HU: you're going to win a small pot when your opponent realizes you were slowplaying on the flop and folds.....or you're going to lose a big one when you get trapped by an opponent with a bigger kicker or with trips. Even if bruiser isn't beat, this just isn't a spot where you wanna get a lot of money in on the turn. The pot is so big on the river that you can easily get bluffed when a blank comes off and your opponent decides to lead at you. Either make your opponent fold on the flop or dump the hand on the turn when facing a big bet.
