for what my break even 2/4 noob advice is worth...

1. bet/fold flop bet/fold turn, maybe check the river. depends on the read. I had a very simaler hand last week, 99 called all the way to showdown.
2. i raise. force the SB to cold call, hopefully get it heads up. MP3 has the four or he dosn't.
3. what would he limp and bet? 33? anything else you're way ahead. bet.
Noooooooooooooooo!!

You're a pussy.

Hand 1, I probably lead the flop and fold to a raise. What's sweet here is that trips will probably just smooth call, giving you a chance to improve to a monster hand on the turn.

Hand 2, ! I'd MUCH more expect to see a JQ/JT and a flush draw out there than a 4.

Hand 3, I definitely 3-bet, his range contains a whole lot more trips than it does boats.
TylerK: its just gambling if i want to worry about money i'll go to work lol

1. i'd check/call the river, but i'm a wuss. betting isn't going to make him fold. there's just so much scary scary stuff out there.

2. against a laggy player 2 pair looks good to me. you're way ahead of any 2 random cards. really a set is the only worry. he'd raise AQ or QQ. you got A5 smoked. i suppose he could be a complete tool and suck out with 68 but hey, cost of doing buiseness.

so many players think they win money at holdem by making big laydowns. maybe this was one of those weak tighties. since i was planning on calling a bet anyway, i thought this was fine, but maybe I should folded to the raise without a maniac read on the guy?

Hand 4...check/call turn and river

Hand 5...looks good. I cap the turn against a lag everytime...But otherwise well played.
Superb play sir...I always call 20% of my stack off with a gutshot draw. Excuse me while I race for my wallet.

Hand 1: Bet/fold or bet/call depending on what happens.

Hand 2: Raise, you're still good here often.

Hand 3: Easy 3-bet.

Hand 4: Check/call the river, he isn't going to fold to the bet very often and you're behind a lot. I prefer bet/fold to bet/call on this river.

Hand 5: Looks pretty good.
