Had enough of a read that this table was playing like a micro table at this point. PPl limping c/c w/ trash and even limping w/ good hands.

Poster could have any random. What do u think...flop and turn especially.

Hand 1: I don't know. I think I call. There is too good a chance that you get 3-bet if you raise and then you can't be sure if you are being 3-bet by a Ten or by a flush, so you almost have to call because you might have outs either way and the pot is big. So, you might end up putting 4 bets into this pot with a loser. Yeah, call and hope nobody checkraises.

Hand 2: I check the flop. This isn't the best place to semi-bluff with a gutshot because there are 2 broadways, 2 straight cards, and 2 flush cards. Too many reasons for someone to call. Plus, your pair outs are undercards. With 97o I would prefer to semibluff on flops like Q65 or T62.

Hand 3: I think you can bet-fold the river, but checking behind is OK, too.

1) hand 1: call and pray it doesn't get raised. if it does, call one bet. If it's check/3bet i guess we won't have odds to boat up so fold.

Call one bet on the river.

2) i don't really dig the flop bet. Undercards and a gutshot? icky.

3) i would bet the river after CO bets the turn then checks the river. Fold to a c/r and feel stupid.

Hand 1: This is close. If no one has a 10, then we have odds to call. If UTG ck raises then we should fold as we are likely drawing to 2 outs.

Hand 2: check /fold the flop with 2 overs on the board and only a gutshot. Change the 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] into a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I love it.

Hand 3: I play it exactly like this so that means we should've value bet the river.

Hand 2 - UR pot, yeah, I was not a fan of this hand. The flop bet is definitly gross. Definitly misplayed, just one of those mistakes u sometimes make while playing. Really my thought process on that was was poster w/ a random and sb who limped, so I took a shot on the board knowing it was gross.

hand 3 I took a couple of seconds before I checked. He was a passivish player, loved the donk, but the 3bet was new. I was like what the hell does he go crazy with on this flop, seeing him play and hit a pair before and he hadnt pulled this. I didnt think he'd do this on a draw or say, top board pair. Maybe two pair. I mean seeing him go crazy on the flop was new, and while I would usually bet this river when checked to I didnt here. He turned out to be quite a bad player. He had AA. Weird hand.

Im assuming you guys call the river if he bets, or do u re-evaluate?
