 Villain is 18/13, and had donked another flop a few hands previous, to which I'd folded.

$0.10/$0.25 No Limit Holdem
6 Players
Hand Conversion Powered by weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG eltopo57 ($25.40)
UTG+1 djrion ($25.35)
CO Hero ($37.30)
BTN ferhat53 ($11.15)
SB lenni66 ($30.95)
BB AApa2 ($24.65)

Pre-Flop: ($0.35, 6 players) Hero is CO
2 folds, Hero raises to $1 ($36.30), 2 folds, AApa2 calls $0.75 ($23.65)

Flop: ($2.10, 2 players)
AApa2 bets $1.50 ($22.15), Hero calls $1.50 ($34.80)

Turn: ($5.10, 2 players)
AApa2 bets $4 ($18.15), Hero calls $4 ($30.80)

River: ($13.10, 2 players)
AApa2 bets $7 ($11.15), Hero goes all-in $30.80 ($0.00) ...


Preflop: I imagine he's calling out of the big blind with something like: {22+, AJ+, KJs+, KQo, 76s+}

Flop: I really don't know what villain's donk betting range here is, but given previous history I don't want to rule our bluffs nor value, but I think it's unlikely to be 7x or Tx, likewise not missed pocket pairs. So villain's range here is: {AJ+, KJs+, KQo, 98s, QJs, 77, TT, KK, AA}. Against that range I have like 32% equity, so I'm getting direct pot odds to call. There are maybe arguments to semibluff raise here, but I'd feel like I'm just folding out his bluffs and keeping in his value hands, so I like the call.

Turn: On the turn I pick up a flush draw to go with my OESD, and villain bets again, and quite big. Now I'm thinking it's much much more likely to be for value on his part, perhaps with the range: {AK, KJs+, KQo, 98cc, 98dd, QJcc, 77, TT, KK, AA} against which I've got 34% equity. Again I'm getting direct pot odds to call, and I think I probably have fairly reasonable implied odds, too.

River: On the river I make my flush, and villain bets again, with the range {AK, KJs+, KQo, 77, TT, KK, AA} I think it's pretty unlikely that villain folds some combos to a $11.15 shove that he calls a $7 minraise with, so I think shoving here is the best play. Even if there are combos for which that's the case, it has to represent more than 37% of his range (7 * 1.0 = 7, 11.15 * 0.63 = 7) before shoving becomes the worse play.

 Looks good, now post some hands where you fuck up

 [10:44] <kiwiMark> I'm always like "Hmmm, nah that's probably fucking horrible, I'll find another hand to post"
[10:45] <kiwiMark> so retardedly counter-intuitive



But alright, m, you're on. Tomorrow I shall post a hand I played fucking horribly as my hand-for-review.

 Figure out what to do with the rest of your range on the flop.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
