Default 4-straight on the board

No fancy hand converter for Crypto poker hands. Sorry.

Both Cryptologic Texas Hold'em Limit (£1/£2)


UTG calls. UTG+1 folds, I posted before button and raised with the powerful KJo. Button folds, blinds and UTG+1 call.

Flop QJ8 rainbow.

SB bets, BB calls, UTG+1 folds, I raised. Call, call.

Turn 9c, second club on board. Checked to me.

Any 10 makes a straight, I have just second pair and am not sure I'm best. I check. Do I bet here? Do I call a check-raise?

I (weakly?) check.

River 4c. Still 4 straight cards on board AND a possible runner-runner flush and the Q overcard to my hand.

Checked to me, and I check it down.

I win with KJ, other 2 both had J6o, and I probably missed collecting 2-4 bets.


Hand #2. 7-handed.

UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, I raise in MP with aces. CO, button fold. Blinds and UTG+1 call.

Flop J76 rainbow.

Blinds check, UTG+1 bet, I raise, SB folds, BB and UTG+1 call.

Turn 8. Checked to me, I bet, call, call.

River 5. I'm last to act. Checked to me, so I get to see a showdown for free.

Not this time. I'm going to collect the last bet from those 7s and 6s who've been calling me down.

Uh oh. BB check raises. UTG+1 calls. With 14 bets out there, I shut my eyes and overcall with the aces.

Unfortunately BB had a 9 kicker with his 7. Crypto doesn't show folded cards in hand history, so I don't know if I was 3rd best.

KJ is a solid hand.

Hand 1: Well played!
Hand 2: I would have checked the river. 2 ends to a straight against multiple opponents. I figure you're beat.

Edit: redo on Hand 1: You should have definitely bet at least either the turn or the river.
