i just started playing this yesterday. i played about 200 hands yesterday at .5/1 on party and needless to say it didnt end up to well. i started off great but i think i made alot of mistakes i need to fix. heres a few hands. any comments, criticizm, advice is greatly appreciated.

[/ QUOTE ]

I moved to PokerStars because the structure at Party isn't so great. It also allowed me to play lower stakes ($.25/.50). You might consider doing the same. You're also more likely to get responses if you post one hand per thread.

I think you've got to fold here. You're chasing half the pot (2.75 SB) and it might get expensive.

I'm new to the game, and I think I would always call on the river with a small two pair. If I were able to pick up reads, I would probably play these spots better.

I'm out on 3rd street. But I'm avoiding three-flushes until I get better on later streets.

I don't know if the check-raise on 4th is that smart. You need to draw two cards in three tries for either high or low. I don't think your edge is enough to be jamming it.

I would just call here. I don't understand what a raise accomplishes. You just allow what is very likely a two pair hand to win more money off of you (44 betting into TT can probably beat TT).

Default Re: a few 8b hands, need help

One hand per post please. It makes it a lot easier to follow what people are talking about.

First hand: definitely fold fourth street. Calling here is a significant leak. Get Ray Zee's book as soon as possible. The rest looks OK.

Second hand: I probably would have led on sixth, but the chicken-call is OK. You probably don't need to call on the river.

Third hand: you played fine until the river, and I assume that that's where you were unsure anyway. After the other guy raises and it goes to heads-up, you cannot be beaten for low, and you may well have the best high hand. The only reason in the world for you not to re-raise is if the rake is not yet maxed out and by raising you can potentially cost yourself money. I don't know what the rake structure is for this game, but you should.

Fourth hand: I usually fold this on third street, but I'm not used to such an absurd ante structure. Having two clubs gone is a significant detriment. The check-raise on fourth makes no sense. I would just bet and hope someone folded at some point, but with a draw this weak, you're not looking to tie people on. The rest looks OK.

Fifth hand: I think I'd limp on third street. The primary reason to raise with big pairs on third street is to try to thin the field. It is pretty rare for someone to limp in for a quarter and then fold for another quarter. I think it's better to limp in and hope to get in a raise later.

If you're going to continue on fourth street, you should probably raise and hope to get it heads-up. If the bettor is thinking at all, he should have trips or at least a high two pair. If he had a big pair in the hole, however, he might well have raised coming in. I think this smells a lot like trips, and with a couple of your cards gone, I'd lean towards letting this one go. In any case, calling was your worst option.

I see that even raising fifth didn't thin the field any. I think it was worth a shot, but you should lean towards giving it up on sixth unless you pick up a low draw.

The call on sixth is OK, I s'pose, but I wouldn't feel very good about it. It is entirely possible that you will make a hand and still lose. I pay off both bets on the river, but I'm not happy about it. Tough hand.

It's so hard to handle multiple hands on 1 post. If you would break them down into seperate posts, I believe you would get a lot more response. Only meant constructively. Good luck.
