1. vs 27/10/3.7

i felt a little lost on the river. bet/folding doesnt seem like an option as if he shoves it'll be less than a minraise. Is this a standard value bet though?

No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (7 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Hero (SB) ($26.85)
BB ($3.65)
UTG ($20.20)
MP1 ($49.50)
MP2 ($6.90)
CO ($30.85)
Button ($32.15)

Preflop: Hero is SB with ,
3 folds, CO calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero raises $1.15, 1 fold, CO calls $1

Flop: ($2.75) , , (2 players)
Hero bets $2, CO calls $2

Turn: ($6.75) (2 players)
Hero bets $5, CO calls $5

River: ($16.75) (2 players)

Hero???


cheers.

lol that is one sick river card

i'd check fold here. i think he'll check behind weaker kings and if he shoves it's going to be pretty obvious he has trip jacks or a flush and either one we're beat.

I think this is a weaker king or straight draw more often than trip jacks and way more often than a flush. I can't decide what to do here though, the pot size and stack size makes this awkward.

I think a check-call might make sense. If the villain missed a draw, they will check behind, or might try a weak bluff. If its a decently sized bet, I would get out. A weaker king or pair is probably going to check through.

I don't think bet folding is a bad idea either.

I would have bet $6 on the turn, but overall I think you played the hand well.

I check and call here. Our hand isn't much more than a bluff catcher and he may decide to take a shot with busted draws and weaker kings.

smells like a weak King to me, bet a value bet on the river and fold to a shove? such a nasty situation. Not betting here, most of the time, makes you lose value though.

I like the check-call here. Although I'm check-folding to a shove or other larger bet.

What? Betting that big gets most worse hands to fold on what's a relatively dry board (don't worry so much about the backdoor flush draw). You're range looks exactly like AK, KK+. I bet $4 on the turn.

River c/c most bets. IF he has a J he probably ghey bets $5 or something.

Pre I tend to raise a little more because we're OOP. But if mashing the bet pot button is your thing so be it.

I actually raised to $1.25 but the converter must have messed it up. All the other bet sizes are correct though.
