1/2 NL, tool using poker office - I am telling you what I did I'd also like to hear how any of you might have played these differently. I lost $1000 on these four hands this weekend.

First hand:

$100 in my stack,

Pocket nines, limped from the big blind, Flop comes KK9

I check, there is a $10 bet and a $10 call, I raise to $35. One guy goes all in, the other guy folds...what do you do?

Second Hand

$300 in my stack

Ace/Seven of diamonds

Flop comes 9/7/3 off suit

I bet $the pot ($12), get two callers.

Turn: 7

I check, aggressive button bets $20, I raise to $70. He calls other player folds.

River: 5 - no flushes on board.

I check he bets $65, what do you do?

Hand Three

$300 in my stack

pocket eights

I raise $13 under the gun. Five callers.

Flop: Q/8/6 rainbow

Having lost the prior two hands I somewhat fast play it and bet $20 from early position.

Two callers. Everyone else folds.

turn is a 10.

I bet $75. One player folds the other player calls.

River is a 9. I check, he goes all in. What do you do?

Hand Four

Pocket aces, once again under the gun. Raise to $22 and get two callers.

Flop: 5/A/10 rainbow.

I check, one player bets $20. I call, other players fold.

Turn: 9 of clubs, putting two clubs on the board.

I bet $100, other player goes all in. What do you do?

if you are playing 1/2 nl why are you posting in the beginners circle? If you are a beginner why are you playing 1/2 NL?

hand1: Why aren't you bought in full, or topped your stack off?
why are you limping 99 from the BB vs limpers?
as played i call and he either had high PP that hit on turn or river , shit happens

hand2: I learn how to post a hand properly so that we have his stack size , position and can then put him on a range. I call since you've already told us you lost your stack so he has 99 97 73 33 55 75 etc.


hand 3: wow you really know how to play it fast betting 2/7 pot into a large field giving them all lovely odds to crack your set.learn how to bet and make it nearer $55.by the river any J or 7 has you beaten and by betting like an idiot you let him draw to his straight cheaply.

hand4 :10x raise UTG ......that looks so exploitable by 200nl regs. Check calling , same as previous hands , giving them great odds to continue and crack your set of aces. have you ever heard of check raise?bump it up to at least 70$ so that you can get your stack in and he has to pay to draw.
why are you just calling the flop and then leading out bloody near full pot now that there are now more draws against you.


overall , hands are played terribly , drop down to where your weak/bad play won't be respected and where it won't cost you so much.

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.
