 hand 1

reads: baller is a bit overaggressive, loves Ax hands. Oriole is kind of a donk, but not too bad.

ANTES/BLINDS
zPokerNutz posts blind ($1), royalgolfer posts blind ($2).

PRE-FLOP
Oriole44 calls $2, baller556 calls $2, rlplayer1 folds, MrCyco calls $2, RICK32221 folds, Stonef4ce calls (3d 3c) $2, iz711 folds, zPokerNutz calls $1, royalgolfer checks.

FLOP [board cards 10C,3S,8H ]
zPokerNutz checks, royalgolfer checks, Oriole44 checks, baller556 bets $2, MrCyco calls $2, Stonef4ce calls $2, zPokerNutz folds, royalgolfer folds, Oriole44 bets $4, baller556 bets $4, MrCyco folds, Stonef4ce calls $4, Oriole44 calls $2.

- May as well let them bet my hand for me, then go for a raise on the turn

TURN [board cards 10C,3S,8H,5H ]
Oriole44 checks, baller556 checks,Stonef4ce bets $4, Oriole44 calls $4, baller556 calls $4.

RIVER [board cards 10C,3S,8H,5H,9C ]
Oriole44 bets $4, baller556 bets $8, Stonef4ce folds, Oriole44 bets $8, baller556 calls $4.

- I figured at least one of them for a straight, since either one could easily be holding 67, 7J or QJ here. If it was just one bet to me I would have called.

SHOWDOWN

Oriole44 shows [ JC,QH ]
baller556 mucks cards [ 9D,10D ]
Oriole44 wins $66.


hand2 -

reads: RICK is very loose, overplays his decent hands. baller same aggressive guy from the last hand.

ANTES/BLINDS
Stonef4ce posts blind ($1), iz711 posts blind ($2).

PRE-FLOP
zPokerNutz folds, royalgolfer folds, Oriole44 folds, baller556 bets $4, ummmyup folds, rlplayer1 folds, MrCyco folds, RICK32221 calls $4, Stonef4ce (Ks Ts) calls $3, iz711 folds.

FLOP [board cards 6S,7D,9C ]
Stonef4ce checks, baller556 bets $2, RICK32221 bets $4, Stonef4ce calls $4, baller556 bets $4, RICK32221 bets $4, Stonef4ce calls $4, baller556 calls $2.

- Didn't like calling the flop cap, but I figured my multiple draws were good.

TURN [board cards 6S,7D,9C,5S ]
Stonef4ce checks, baller556 bets $4, RICK32221 calls $4, Stonef4ce calls $4.

RIVER [board cards 6S,7D,9C,5S,4S ]
Stonef4ce checks, baller556 bets $4, RICK32221 calls $4, Stonef4ce bets $8, baller556 calls $4, RICK32221 calls $4.

SHOWDOWN

Stonef4ce shows [ KS,10S ]
baller556 mucks cards [ 7H,7S ]
RICK32221 mucks cards [ AH,9D ]
Stonef4ce wins $72.
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.

Hand 1 - I really want to raise this flop the second time around. You have a LOT of dead money in there, you might as well get as much in as possible while youre still sure you've got the best hand. Its not horrible as played, though. Good river fold.

Hand 2 - Horribly played on the flop. You can't cold call a cap!!?!

 Sorry, missed a bold in hand 2. I called 2, then called 2 again (fixed now). I wouldn't have called 4 cold, but by the time I called 2 the first time I was already in too deep.

Still a fold. You were not in any way "in too deep". You fold the flop the first time it gets to you, AND the second time it gets to you.

Yeah, horrible on hand 2. What draws were good?

A gutshot that you might split. So we'll call it 2.5 outs
A backdoor flush draw worth 1.5 outs
A T overcard that's not good since you'd be vulnerable to a straight or to a re-draw. We can consider this 0.5 outs.
A K overcard that's also good for 3 outs. So you have 7.5 outs, of which given the flop action only 1.5 might be good, yet you call 2 bets cold and then another 2.

I 3-bet the flop in hand 2 because I'm a LAgg.
