1) fine - a river bet only gets called by a better hand

2) I threebet the flop most times, but at full ring he's pretty much flipped his hand over here and I dont mind a call down.

3) Its fine. Against a lot of opponents, you can probably lie that down on the river but not at .5/1.

4) You can fold the turn or call down depending on your impression of villain.

5) Shitty spot. Dont hate the way you played it against THAT many people.

6) Fine

7) Bet the flop, everything changes after that. I dont like your turn donk.

8) EEehhh. Close to me between a bet and a check.

9) Fine

10) Let this go on the flop. Threebetting OOP is alright if you think UTG sucks. Just calling isnt horrible.

11) Fine. Theres no way I'm folding on that river. BB is a moron. Or a genius. One of those two.

12) I probably raise the flop for information and free cards.

13) Raise the flop, punish the drawers

14) Dont limp UTG. As played "eeeehhhh" one of the tougher spots.

15) Fine. If the turn had been not an A or not a 7, check it trhough.

16) Fold preflop.

17) On a board with that many players playing THAT passive, dont checkraise. Lead.

18) Its fine, call. Yes, call with one pair from time to time, particularly overpairs. Dont overdo it.

19) C/f the river. A bet and 3 callers means second pair is no good.

20) Raise preflop. Stop open limping.

21) You can fold the turn a lot. He's got a K.

22) Raise the flop, take a free card.

23) Yucky. Umm... yeah I think youre correct to slow down there.


All I got time for.

 Dang that's a lot of hands for a noobie. Welcome to the forums. I'll take a look at the later but
Hand 1 looks good
Hand 2 I would lose a ton more money. You're really losing a lot of value against AK/KQs here.

This post has really helped me a lot. I like having all the hands posted, and then having you guys critique the play. Very informative, and it's helping me learn a lot. With hand 17, I want to know is it ok to cr (since he chose to check in the first place) the nut flush draw on the turn? Or is cc the best option on the turn? Maybe I added wrong, but I thought we'd still be getting better pot odds (assuming there's not a 3bet behind) than our odds to draw out. Still learning!

 YAYYY Im at work today and bored so I thought Id run through these hands with you.

1. No one here likes calling the flop and raising a non-diamond turn card? We have position so worrying about giving up a free card is not an issue. On top of this we can force the button to coldcall 2 on the turn if he calls the flop bet. Making it 2 to go on the flop still is plenty of odds for the button to call with a naked diamond. IDK, we don't want the SB slowing down on the turn but I don't think he will after capping PF. He most likely has an overpair with a diamond in it OR AKo with a diamond. All in all this is a pretty interesting hand. No way am I betting the river BTW.

2. Like I think I stated before I 3bet the flop or smooth call and raise the turn. You're really only behind KK or overly played 99, You're way ahead of AK/KQs. However, seeing how you hold 2 of the aces really reduces his chances of having AK PF. However, flopping a King really reduces his chances of having KK. Eitherway you pick up some equity on the turn even if you are behind KK/99. All in all I love a King flopping when I have AA and I would probably lose a lot more money than you did. Well played if you had a read on UTG+1.

3. Check/calling the river a viable option here? Not really sure but what hands are we now ahead of? B/f is fine to get max value out of Kx. However, every possible draw has connected on this river. If you are going to bet this river card, then I think you need to fold to a raise.

4. If villain is sane he just turned his hand face up. JT is a hand that limps a lot in FR limit. I think you need to learn the concept of bet/folding the larger streets.

5. Bet the flop. Call a raise. c/r the turn UI. That's a pretty good flop for AK against 3 opponents.

6. Can your opponent fold? If his WTSD is low I think about raising the flop and 3barrelling. I almost cap PF as well. My aggression may be a little too high for FR here cuz I've been playing 6max for a while now.

7. Bet the flop, put a fish note on MP1. Probably fold the turn after MP1 raises you HAD you bet the flop.

8. Check behind river

9.

Few questions about this one. Is leading on the flop correct? And how about calling reraise with just overs?
Yes, lead the flop after 3betting. BTW, AJs is a coldcalling hand and one of the few ones I believe. I especially will coldcall against UTG/UTG+1 raises PF unless they have been acting maniacally.

10. Another coldcall PF. Either c/r the flop or c/f it.

11. AJs against two limpers is somewhat marginal I think. It depends on the BB as well. I cannot see a river fold.

12. Raise the flop. Check behind the turn. Fold to a river bet.

13. Raise the flop. Bet turn and river

14. Yucky spot. Raise PF for sure. AJo isnt a great hand to play multiway pots with so you want to disuade players from limping behind. Im firing at every street until CO tells me to stop. But, like I said, my play could be too aggressive for FR. BTW, it isn't a steal attempt.

15. I might fire at the turn. Don't think Im firing at this river though. MP1's line looks a lot like a flush draw and not a bad ace.

16. Fold PF. Hands like these play better with 5 or more players seeing flops, not 2-3. Im checking behind this turn.

17. You need to bet this river.

18. Close between calling/folding. Players who try to c/r river (hence you in hand 17) typically have the nuts/near nuts.

19. You're never good enough here to call this river against 2 overcallers

20. Raise PF, bet the flop. Either way Im betting this flop heads up against the BBs range.

21. Unlucky to say the least. The c/r means nothing to me on the flop. I call down expecting to see nothing as many times as I see a King.

22. Raise the flop, bet the turn, check behind the river. Fold to a diamond river donk or a diamond river c/r (if you decide to bet the river which I told you not to do, why don't you listen to me DAMNIT??)

23. Sucks but no other line unless Lee Jones pairs the river.

24. Hey, you found a hand you could open limp with. Im not sure about a flop donk here. I fold the river.

25. Good

26. Ehhh, fold the turn maybe? Yea, think Id have to let the turn go. Its funny you're losing these hands we are telling you to fold to but you are losing them to hands I never would have dreamt villain holding.

27. Fine, I don't think hands that you beat are calling here.

28. Bet the river

29. Raise the flop, if called Id probably b/f the next 2 streets.

 1. fine

2. 3bet flop or raise turn (I like a turn raise since often you are way ahead of AK in this spot and get an extra big bet in)

3. fine

4. fine, although a tight/passive villain will have you beat with 2pair+ here almost always

5. General rule is if you will call if there is a bet, it's better to bet yourself. After raising preflop I'd fire once at this rag board and see what happens. If he raises take one off and fold if you don't improve.

6. fine

7. semi-coordinated board, but I fire on the flop after one guy checks. Turn and river are fine.

8. fine, you are beating a lot of 2 pair hands here on the river and it's hard to give the BB credit for JJ+/AK since he didnt reraise preflop against your steal.

9. depends on the UTG+1 raisor, if he's loose I like a 3bet to isolate. If he's very tight, a fold is prudent. If the table is passive you might be able to get away with cold-calling if you think people will come in behind you.

10. just call in the SB against an UTG raisor. AJs plays well multiway so if the BB comes along it isn't so bad.

11. Against 2 opponents on this river I check to induce a bluff/let a worse Ace bet most of the time, unless they are so passive they'll call with any ace/ten/worse here.

12. Spots like this I tend to go laggy and raise to see if they really have a hand, and then check behind on the turn to get a free card if unimproved.

13. Looks good. With MP2 caught in between just calling and seeing if the turn is a nasty card is good, since he won't fold if we raise. If SB bet and we were next to act, with MP2 behind us, then a raise is best to make MP2 call 2 if he wants to go on.

14. Bet the turn, if he raises you there then you can let it go.

15. fine

16. fine

17. either or is good, I'd bet out about half the time

18. fine, although a river check-raise is rarely a bluff (especially on a non-scare card like an ace). I've seen hands like AJ play like this too.

19. Wierd lines by all the villains, but I don't over-over call (3rd caller with 2nd pair.. no good, at least one has an ace, probably MP1)

20. I'd open-raise preflop from the CO with KTs, as played call

21. He's repping a king, but if he's loose/aggressive I like a call down

22. fine, good value bet on the end. A flop raise would also be alright.

23. standard

24. that K on the end kind of sucks since AK/KQ just got there, but if the villain is reasonably aggressive, call.

25. fine, not much will call a river bet that doesn't have you beat

26. standard, often that turn raise is a hand with 2 big cards with one diamond

27. fine, probably a missed diamond draw/ace that won't call if you bet, but a Q or J will call

28. here I'd bet the river again, he probably isn't limping a 5, and would have raised the turn with a king. A bet will get a call from lower pps and probably an ace. I like a turn bet here since any 10, J, Q or A could make us a loser, so we don't want to give a free card.

29. fine
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
