constructive criticism, anyone?
No Limit ($0.50/$1)
Hero is in cutoff with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] SB: ($128.75) BB: ($96) UTG: Villain($83.42) UTG+1$106) CO: Hero ($42) Button: ($44.38) Villain: calls $1 UTG+1: folds Hero: calls $1 Button: folds SB completes BB: checks FLOP ($4) [A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]] checked around TURN ($4) [9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]] SB: checks BB: checks Villain: checks Hero: bets $2 2 folds Villain: calls $2 RIVER ($8) [8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]] Villain: bets $4 Hero: raises to $20 Villain: raises to $80.42 and is all-in Hero: ??? I know - fold pre-flop. But I am playing at a new site, this table is very loose, and there is a better than 70% chance everyone limps. On other sites, I am VPIP 20%. Here I am VPIP 34% and making good profits - so I thought I could see what happens. |

Re: constructive criticism, anyone?
If I choose to play PF, I'm coming in for a raise. The reason is not becasue I'm trying to steal -- UTG won't fold, so I have a FE of zero. The reason is becasue if any face card comes on the flop, I can make a decent bet -- say, half to 3/4 pot -- and usually take the pot then and there. By just limping in PF, you have represented a hand that doesn't include strongly-kickered high cards. That is, you clearly don't have AK. I like raising PF instead of limping here becasue of the position it leaves me in strategically on the flop.

Re: constructive criticism, anyone?
Good point - I just figured I'd get a cheap look at the flop and bail if it wasn't good. I've been doing so well, I really wasn't even thinking about setting up plays. If I flop halfway decent, I'll usually win - and when I connect well, I know I'll get paid.
This time, I just kind of wandered into a tough situation. No PFR - but these guys have played AA, AKs, TT, AT and JJ without raising PF - it is very hard to put them on a hand. Should I think my straight is good here? |

Re: constructive criticism, anyone?
If you're going to play QJo, raise it preflop (you can play position afer the flop) or fold. Your raise on the river committed you, so I think you have to call. With a paired board, I would've called the first bet on the river. But I'm a little weak-tight.

I think your straight is no good.

I like a potsized bet on the turn.
you don't have any fold equity with 2 dollars. |

Re: constructive criticism, anyone?
reads on villain? if he's solid, this is a pretty clear fold...
T9 seems likely, possibly AT. with no reads, i don't raise that river. as played, as short as you are, you have to call his push. |
