played a little FR. havent in 2 years.

1) stupid stab at pot, but i didnt think a 6 could call. upon further review, i dont believe i have the Q either. thats not what i was repping. i am just used to nitty FR players folding with weaker stuff. at 6max wouldnt work with bottom pair out there. but, how bad is it? i leave that up to your comments...

KoRnholio will become famous soon enough

1- I just call, if UTG was sandbagging, we don't want him to 3bet and have the two callers fold. Free card FTW

2- He *shouldn't* have a 6 here when limping UTG, but I can't see him check-raising with a worse ace very often either at these stakes. I guess he could have limped A7-AJ UTG though. Meh. Against a non-retard I think we could raise-fold the river, but I assume retardedness until I see differently.

3- I just call this river. He won't fold a bigger pp or king against our line. He might call with an AT-AQ type hand if he thinks we missed hearts, but given our cap preflop I don't think he will put us on hearts.

If we're going to raise to try to get him off TT-QQ, the turn is the place to do it, but even then most villains just won't fold. It could get us a free showdown though.

4- Looks okay if your read is correct

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.

First of all, as someone who plays a lot of FR, Chopper is an EXCELLENT full-ring player at least at these stakes. I don't know why he doesn't do it more often. He is tight, he picks good spots to be aggressive, and he changes up nicely.

Hand 1-- if the fish call you, they call you. The one thing I would say about this hand is something that was once said to me by one of the better regulars at the 15/30 tables at Hollywood Park. What happened was pretty similar to this hand. The hand was a limp-fest pre-flop, and checked around on the flop. On the turn, I turned an open-ended straight draw and bet it aggressively. The river paired the top card on the flop. I put down another bet and got a snap call from this guy, who showed down ace-high and won. He said "if you want me to believe that bet, you have to start on the flop".

So these guys may have been fish, but I suspect some good players are going to be suspicious when you woke up on the turn when the flush draw came out.

Hand 2-- standard. You raised a good hand pre-flop, hit top pair good kicker, bet on the first two streets, rivered top 2 and faced a donk bet from a player who raises 1 percent of the time pre-flop and quite a lot post-flop-- in other words, this is the guy's M.O. Raise-call the river, as he doesn't know you just hit top 2. Perfect.

Hand 3-- correctly played, but only if people know the context. We had gotten into a couple of blind battles before on different tables. The first one I remember, I think I had ace-4 on the button, you 3-bet me from the big, blind, I whiffed on the flop, and folded to your c-bet.

Second time I was is the big blind with ace-queen suited, you opened from the button, I 3-bet you, and you capped and I called. On the flop, I bet, you raised, I 3-bet, you folded.

So basically, each one of us thinks the other one is FOS. In that context, pocket 9's on the button is a perfect hand because you are ahead of quite a bit of my 3-betting range from the BB. The raise on the river is fine too-- sure, that king could have hit me, but it actually makes it less likely I have a king, and that and a higher pocket pair are just about the only thing you are afraid of.

A perfect example of reads and ranges. (I played the hand poorly, by the way. I was correct to stay in until the river, but I should have c/c'd it as I was likely behind.)

Hand 4-- just so everyone knows, the CO is me. I was commenting about how on the last hand, I called with 77 to set-mine when up against a bunch of short stacks. I hit my set but everyone got all in and I took down too small a pot to justify the play. (That's why there are only 8 players on this hand.)

So the hand after this, Chopper turns his set against the maniac who I wish had been in the hand I played. I think Chopper misplayed the final 2 streets here. You have to let the maniac hang himself, and that requires some slowplay, especially since the maniac was the last aggressor on the flop.
