Fold hand 1 pre-flop. River bluff is marginal at this level.

Hand 2 is all around well played.

To clean up your hands, exchange : for = and exchange CC3333 for red.

Instead of color:CC3333 it should say color=red
Instead of color:blue it should say color=blue

bisonbison converts hands to 2+2 format. FTR format is slightly different.

As far as play. I echo Fnord's thoughts. K3s is bad, it's worse in UTG.
I don't know what they have to say
It makes no difference anyway.
Whatever it is...
I'm against it.

Hand 1:
Fold preflop. but since you called, the flop was nice. I think its ok to bet out the flop and turn b/c you have pot odds with 1-2 opps calling behind. 1 to 9.5 on the flop and 2 to 11.5 on the turn. Although, if you get raised, you dont have pot odds any longer. So its a trade-off between being the agressor (all opps might fold) or securing pot odds on flop and turn. You still might be worried with the flush draw taking some outs away

Hand 2:
I might check the river. With so many callers, its very likely someone made a flush or straight.

Hand 3:
I might cap the flop. At least the bet on the turn from UTG would be convincing of set or better. Since Ace dropped, if UTG had QQ or JJ in same scenario, UTG just might call the turn if you capped the flop and you would have more information vs calling the 3-bet.

1281 hands played and saw flop:
- 39 times out of 149 while in small blind (26%)
- 117 times out of 155 while in big blind (75%)
- 214 times out of 977 in other positions (21%)
- a total of 370 times out of 1281 (28%)

Pots won at showdown - 59 out of 107 (55%)
Pots won without showdown - 41

How do you like the way these look? 117 out of 155 is high for big blind but concidering that probably 1/2 to 2/3 of those were when no one raised and I saw the flop for free.

Since I've become more aggresive and cut down my flop percentage by about 5% i've increased my profit dramatically. I've also increased the number of tables i'm playing to three.

Thanks Fnord for your advice as being aggressive has worked much more than I thought it would, it even allows me to take pots that before I would have just checked.

11 down, only 16989 Frequent Player points to go until i get that nice Clay chip set at PokerStars.
