Hi.

Okay, bit of a noob at Limit. Decided to give it a try and wanted to check that I'm not missing anything in transition?

Opp seemed very loose, is it right just to bet this through?

Cryptologic
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $1/$2
10 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $58.25
UTG+1: $61
UTG+2: $47
MP1: $33.50
MP2: $14.75
MP3: $86.62
Hero: $93.25
Button: $56
SB: $19
BB: $80

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is CO with A A
5 folds, MP3 raises, Hero 3-bets, 3 folds, MP3 calls.

Flop: 3 J 5 (7.5SB, 2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero bets, MP3 raises, Hero re-raises, MP3 calls.

Turn: T (6.75BB, 2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero bets, MP3 calls.

River: 2 (8.75BB, 2 players)
MP3 checks, Hero bets, MP3 calls.

Results:
Final pot: 10.75BB


Not sure how you play these OESFD in limit; in NLHE I think it's right to get as much into the post as possible.

What about the turn bet?
The river check?

BB: $20

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is Button with J T
3 folds, MP2 calls, 2 folds, Hero calls, SB calls, BB checks.

Turn: T (4BB, 2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets, MP2 calls.

Blah blah Op Blah blah

Faith in Jesus Christ is +EV. That is all.

 I think you can extract more value out of hand 1 by smooth calling the raise by MP3, what does he raise you here with, KK/QQ or AJ, maybe even Ax in diamonds. If this player is capable on donking the turn and river with a weak hand such as AJo then I smooth call this flop, smooth call the turn and raise the river. It can work out a few ways, dont know if you won or not, but lets say your hand holds up and MP3 has kk/qq/AJ.

Pot size way you played it: 10.75BB
Smoothcall flop/turn raise river. Pot would become 11.75BB
Smoothcall flop/villain checks turn/you donk/he calls down: 9.75BB
Smoothcall flop/turn/raise river/villain 3bets river with QQ: 13.75BB
---don't think you can cap a river 3bet

Well, it's tough to knock your play, but it's HU, and a lot of it comes down to reads. You really slowed MP3 down with the flop 3bet. I wouldn't do it, Id wait to raise on a bigger street. By smooth calling you really look like you have AK, if MP3 really has a hand then he would most likely donk the turn and you could raise there if you like or wait until the river. If you don't raise the turn you could miss value if MP3 passively checks the river. All this is dependant on MP3 actually having quite a large pair.

Hand 2: I donk the river, he probably has nothing but a 9 or something like 77. BTW, I don't mind limping on the button with JTd.
