Default Trying to figure out my SH game

Hand 1:
CO = pre-flop LAG
Button = loose passive

PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button caps</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls, CO calls.

I thought about mucking here. Should I have?

Flop: (13.50 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, CO checks, Button checks.

Turn: (6.75 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Button calls, Hero calls.

Anyone lead here?

River: (9.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero...

What's my plan here?

Hand 2: Both Villains are loose and very passive.

PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG posts a blind of $0.50.
UTG (poster) checks, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, MP checks, CO checks, Button checks.

Turn: (3 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, MP folds, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds.

River: (6 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>

Is this standard here?

Hand 3:
SB = loose passive

PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (4 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Anyone raise pre-flop?

Flop: (3 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG folds, SB calls.

Pretty clear raise or fold situation. Anyone think folding is the better option?

Turn: (3.50 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero...

Now what?

Hand 4:

Same general situation but bigger pot.

PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, UTG calls, MP calls.

Flop: (13.50 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG folds, MP calls.

Turn: (8.75 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Hero...

Bigger pot make any difference here?

Hand 5:

SB = 67/10/1.6

PokerStars 0.50/1.00 Hold'em (4 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, BB calls, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, SB calls, BB calls.

Cap AK with position here?

Flop: (13 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Anyone not raise? Anyone cap it?

Turn: (9.50 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks.

Anyone bet?

River: (9.50 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero...

How about now?

Not the biggest poster here, or the brightest. I would have to assume one thing, though. If you were to select a couple of these and post them by themselves, it helps greatly in replying to them. It just seems really overwhelming to try and reply to that many, especially at a limit where games are so "out of touch"? Just my dinky two cents, bruthah.

Default Re: Trying to figure out my SH game

You will get more responses if you post .only a couple of hands per post

hand 1 I would fold prelop from MP
hand 2 lead the flop. Clean up some outs.
hand 3 I think your right. raise the flop. I would fold ti the turn bet.
hand 4 Tough decision. absence of reads I would fold but it is close.
hand 5. I would just call the 3bet. My guess is this hand is going to showdown. Unimproved I would just check call the rest.

I don't usually post so many at once but my SH game is really bad. I pulling like 3 BB/100 at 1/2 full, but I've been break even at best at SH.

I started looking at this post and then got overwhelmed and stopped after hand 2.

Hand 1, fold that before you raise, especially since you have admitted your SH game sucks.

Hand 2, lead the flop.

I dont really care about the rest of the hands.
