$100 NL 6m newbie confused x 3
I usually play limit, and for the last week or so I've been trying to play some 6max 100 NL, with kind of sucky results.
In this first hand I have no idea of how I would get him to pay me off. My check-call-bet was a rather random result of my confusion. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 6 handed) converter MP ($76.45) CO ($123.40) Button ($117.10) SB ($215.87) Hero ($85.15) UTG ($137.82) Preflop: Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.50. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) calls $1.50, Hero calls $1. Flop: ($6) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets $4</font>, SB folds, Hero calls $4. Turn: ($14) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $9</font>, CO folds. Final Pot: $23 This second one is a good example on how lost I am on playing draws in NL (in contrary to in Limit which Im used to). It ended with me thinking until the time was up and I was autofolded. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) converter Button ($78.95) SB ($105.80) BB ($105.50) UTG ($234.57) Hero ($98.50) CO ($137.42) Preflop: Hero is MP with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

UTG calls $1, Hero calls $1, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB (poster) completes, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $1</font>, UTG calls $1, Hero calls $1, SB calls $1. Flop: ($8) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">SB bets $5</font>, BB folds, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $15</font>, SB calls $10.

Final Pot: $63 This third one was probably a bad rivercall. I guess I just didnt see a straight draw call my turn raise.

Re: $100 NL 6m newbie confused x 3
1) Dont slowplay flop. Just lead out.
2) Seems like a call. Youve got pot odds, and seeing as he has 9T/68/7T/set, probably considerable implied odds. 3) Yeah he had 89. That sucks, but just note him, and pay him off. I rarely find a fold on this river (if ever). |

Leading out is good if he's got an overpair or something but he only min-raosed PF and you'll probably just get him to fold, might as well let him bet a little bit first. I'd probably lead or check-raise the turn. 2)You have a pair, gutshot, and flush draw, granted you dont know which of your outs is clean but still I think you gotta call here getting like 2.5:1 + implied odds. 3)I disgree with the above, as there's a 4 str8 on the board. Its a tough situation, but this guys got an 8 here an awful lot of the time, and he knows you'll check behind so he bets. I don't see people bluffing in this spot very often, and thats all you can beat. |
