Hand 1: Interested to see the results....it's similar to what I was talking about in another thread, except the turn wasn't a brick in this hand.

Hand 2: Looks good.

Hand 3: I think calling the flop raise is probably not the best option. If you're planning to give up on the turn unimproved, I'd just fold to the flop raise in this fairly small pot. Otherwise consider 3-betting the flop?
TylerK: its just gambling if i want to worry about money i'll go to work lol

hand 2: i would probably check raise, but betting out and letting him raise and limit the field does make much more sense.

Hand 1 looks good, if he's stupid aggressive you can 3-bet.

Hand 2 is an interesting hand. My defualt move is to raise preflop to buy the button and isolate the limpers. Do you consider this a close limp/raise situation?

Post-flop I think you have two options, either 3-bet the flop or bet the turn. There's a good chance you have the best hand and he's frequently taking the free card when he has overcards. His flop raise doesn't really indicate much strength.

River bet looks good.

Hand 3: I don't understand why you 3-bet preflop. You're probably at a coin flip in equity and in a blind war the raise doesn't buy you much folding equity.

I wouldn't give up when he raises the flop, I like 3-betting here if there's any chance he'll get frisky with Ace or King high.

Why did you call the flop if you were going to check/fold the turn unimproved?

TAgg will often fold here anyway, so I didn't see much value in raising this pre-flop.

Plan was to check/fold the turn to any face card, figuring that if it didn't help him than there is a good chance he picked up outs.

I've been trying to defend aggressivly with small pocket pairs, but just can't seem to find the right lines...

Wait...

You're only a coinflip to win assuming you both see showdown whereas he'll often throw his hand away if he misses. You will have the best hand on the flop considerably more than 50% of the time.

Fuck yeah?

Hand 1: Blind steal I assume. Well played.

Hand 2: I play it the same.

Hand 3: I like the Blind defense, got stuck with a shitty board, nice fold.
