Re: Few more tricky situations.
Why not c/r the turn in hand one? Looks like your pumping a spade draw and BB might bet the turn.
On two, I'd check-call to induce the bluff, looks like he missed his diamond draw, get him to take a stab at it. In 3 I think I would've c/red the river 4. I'd check fold the turn 5. Bet the turn, you might get a chance to 3bet, c/res scare the crap outta people 6. I play this one the same. I think you maybe could bet fold the river, but I dont think you could vs. an unknown 7. All day long 8. I play this one the same too. |

Re: Few more tricky situations.
1. No. Bet the river, you might get raised but even most As are checkign behind.
2. Yes call the flop, why are you betting the river, is it a bluff or for value? or are you not sure? 3. Do something besides c/c the flop and turn. Ugh. C/r the flop would be my choice. Also, the river is tough, I want to 3bet but I'm debating. 4. That situation kind of sucks, if you think he's drawing checkcalling the river is ok. Otherwise just bet I think. 5. No, don't get fancy, that's a finely played hand. 6. Ugh. Sometimes fold to the river raise. 7. Yes. 8. Yes. 9. Don't post 8 hands at once. Focus on one hand at a time and discuss it in more detail. Make sure to reply to more hands than you post. |

More than when you just post hands, when you post advice you subject the way you think about the game to scrutiny. I'm pretty sure if you responded to a hand I posted with bad advice I a) wouldn't take it and b) reply and tell you why I thought it was bad. Neither of those things are -EV |
