Hand 2
As many have said, this one is a lot more dicey since my hand will be best less often. When he 3-bets preflop, I'm thinking JJ+ and AK. I think he might donk it with TT or AQ or AJs. The one hand that I really hope he has is AA, so I feel like I should have check/called it.
I actually bet, he raised and I called. I got shown KJo and MHING. Not much I could do, but river aside I don't see much to do differently. |

Re: Hand 2
I got to this thread too late.
First, I hope you stick around donking in the forums for another 5000 posts. Second, I think the first hand is a perfect spot for a river check-raise (calling if 3-bet). Sucks you lost. Third, I think in the second hand I would probably check-call (I was thinking this even before I read the results and your thoughts). If your read is accurate, it doesn't seem like this guy is betting both the flop and turn without a K; and if he has a K, he's gotta have an A, right? Turns out your read was a bit off - live and learn. But aren't you an advocate of not betting the river against someone who likes his hand unless you intend to 3-bet it when raised? Fourth, I really hope you stick around the forums for another 5000 posts. |

Re: Thoughts about Hand 1
In both hands I would bet the river and call a raise.

Re: 5000 Posts and Still Donking
Hand 1:
I would CR the flop, hope she 3-bets so I can smoothcall and CR the turn. The way you played it I'd lead the river. Hand 2: I like this better against a weak TAG, but I'm still betting the river. |

Oh I'll give her action [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Yeah probably a good point. I might be developing some FPS. Better get that checked out. |
