hi tizim. thanks alot for this post.

1) yah i do is there something wrong with that? i thought that was standard

2) i was running over one20x40 viciously because i was catching such good cards against him. as a result he started to tighten up but he never ever folded postflop against me when he had any pair or ace high and he was going into passive-predictable mode so i thought 54s would be very profitable against him there.

3) yah i thought about this one last night. :/

3a) think i need to defend here? i defend liberally with almost any 2 but i really dont like the 3 gapper offsuit rags. id prefer to have Q4 here than 96. is that wrong?

4) raising the turn is a standard for me there but with how one was playing against me capping the flop seemed right. i felt like i needed to vary my play against him a little bit to keep him off balance.

5) UGA was peeling any flop against me. if im just going to bet the flop and checkfold the turn im better off folding preflop or just openfolding the flop.

6) i was looking at his attsb

7) i really dont know about my calldown there i was very unsure. like i said UGA was calling any flops against me and trying to take pots away from me or at least it felt like that cause it always worked.

8) my flop raise with the pair of 4s is more a frequency thing. i usually just call there. raising the flop lets me get to showdown for half a bet less and i didnt feel like he would play back at me with a bluff.

9) i thought about this one as well and wasnt sure if i liked my turn bet, but miserable is weird

11) this was a read based thing. i was going to call the river but i felt that the jack really hit his hand for some reason forgot why.

12) yah youre probably right about this. i think this was a spew too. in the hand when he donked the river to me it looked like he was afraid id take a free showdown and was planning on folding to a raise. i got the feeling that even though he was going to fold to a raise after i raised he would end up calling. maybe im just crazy.

13) i felt i had a big edge against one postflop there and wanted to see a flop. if i complete from the SB i think he raises and if i raise i dont think he 3bets much. by raising at least i represent high cards. maybe this is poor logic though.

14) 77? you mean 47? i think in the hand one slowed down on the turn, i bet the river and he raised. you really want me to slowdown on that board with a straight and not 3bet??

15) interesting. you like calling in position with bottom pair on a AK3 flop but you like checkraising bottom pair on a AK6 flop. out of position i checkcall alot more and in position i raise more.

16) i think the river raise is right but the turn raise is probably better for reasons you mentioned.

17) youre right on this one as well. i thought if HKF called the flop raise which i thought he would i could get a free card on the turn. i dont know what i was thinking. yuckyuck.


thanks again tizim :>

I defend 96o and worse vs an aggressive SB stealer every time. Maybe I'm too loose from the blinds.

Nah, it's not that important really, and I shouldn't have mentioned it. You probably just misread the board. Basically, you bet a 23456 river OOP without a 7.

The reason I might checkraise the AK6 flop OOP is because I plan on betting the turn. If you call that flop, mis knows you have a pair, so on the turn, he'll valuebet when he's ahead and take a free card when he's behind. Since I'm betting the turn, I either checkraise the flop or donk the turn. I CR the flop when I think my opponent is likely to play back at a turn donk, since lots of opponents don't take donkbets seriously.

hi tizim. youre probably right about the 5 straight board. here were my thoughts during the hand:

villain is a total idiot. and i mean total idiot. he might actually not realize there is a straight on board hes so dumb. ill bet it. rethinking the hand the bet is probably wrong but when you bet at those types of boards you only get a fraction of a second to think it through.

maybe youre right about the bottom pair OOP. i have trouble playing those hands. maybe ill post some more threads about them in the future.
