You are playing very passive. You have to be willing to bet with less than the nut, especially against villains who are not doing anything out of the ordinary.

I make tons of money allowing people to hang themselves... I'm not folding hand two to a raise on the turn, because people dont bet 2x pot with 66-67 on the flop in that situation.. If he has 79 or A7 - so be it... I'm minimizing losses from it and make the most from 78 type type of hands by just calling the turn... I can also bet a club river because villian DEFINATELY has 7, not a flush draw and MAYBE make him fold A7...

You obviously don't need my advice. Sorry to bother you.

How are you making the most out of 78 if you never raise??

hand 1: raise the river harder. Also, you might want to think about c-betting sometimes. You have the 2nd nuts, try and get as much value as possible.

hand 2: need some stack sizes (how deep?). I think you should have raised either the flop or turn. Kind've depends how deep you are, but I believe you lost some value. Also, value bet the river if checked to.

Hand 1. If you think he'll raise your CB bet with air, then I like the check, but then you have to bet the turn and try and win the pot. I also go broke here if he has AK. People have been blasting your "min-raise", but it wasn't even a min-raise, because that would have been to 30. Anyway, you want a call here so bet whatever you think he'll call with QJ or AQ. If that's only $20 more, so be it.

Hand 2: Tough spot. I never know what to do when villain's are overbetting pot. I think the clue here is that he seems afraid of the flush draw since he would probably bet less on the turn with a fullhouse. The let him hang himself vs. raise for value and info is a good debate. My thought is that he is not playing like he has a full house so unless he has A7, you are ahead. Additionally, he is clearly not folding, so I re-raise all-in on the turn.

Hand 1: I lost to AK. And he just called the minraise [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hand 2: Villian showed Q7 for a rivered 3-outer...

I like my line in hand 1... But I should probably fold if he pushed...

Hand 2 is DIFFICULT IMO.
I don't like raising the flop, because I'm not ENTIRELY sure if it's a 7 or a flush draw. Villians actions on the turn tell me it is DEFINATELY a 7. The more I think about hand 2, the more I'm not sure about it... What's the point in raising if it's 50/50 situation? (I'm ahead of 75,78,crap like 73s(he is SB) and behind of 79,A7,67... maybe it's better to just call and minimize losses if I'm behind...)
