This is my first session in a while. At .02/.05, buying in max ($10). These are the 3 hands I pulled for discussion. Converter isn't working quite right, so I improvised.

Hand 1)
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

Button ($5.93)
SB ($6.49)
Hero ($14.35)
UTG ($2.55)
UTG+1 ($6.94)
MP1 ($3.18)
MP2 ($10.94)
MP3 ($5.73)
CO ($7.16)

Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
UTG calls $0.05, 3 folds, MP3 raises to $0.3, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.25, UTG calls $0.25.

Flop: ($0.92) , , (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, MP3 checks.

Turn: ($0.92) (3 players)

devr: checks
bergkönig20: checks
kuszo: bets $0.25
devr?

I was planning on c/ring the flop, since it's such a good flop to c-bet I could get an extra bet out of air (as opposed to leading out).
as played, flat and c/r river?


Hand 2)
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

MP3 ($10.53)
CO ($5.32)
Button ($9.49)
SB ($7.94)
Hero ($10.43)
UTG ($9.15)
UTG+1 ($7.42)
MP1 ($10.04)
MP2 ($1.95)

Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $0.3, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.30, 1 fold, CO calls $0.30, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.25.

Flop: ($1.22) , , (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets $2, MP2 calls $1.65 (All-In), CO folds, Hero calls $2.

Turn: ($6.17)
devr: checks
FStieger: bets $5.12 and is all-in
devr: folds

too weak?

Hand 3)
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (7 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

CO ($10.73)
Button ($3.71)
SB ($8.27) 10/7/4/157
BB ($7.66)
Hero ($9.48)
MP1 ($4.44)
MP2 ($4)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with , . MP2 posts a blind of $0.05.
Hero raises to $0.25, 4 folds, SB raises to $0.8, BB calls $0.75, Hero folds.

nitty?

Hand 1) 3bet preflop vs. 10nl tards. Bet flop >c/r imo because there could be a 4 or something out there. Just bet bet bet for value all the time you have a hand, dont get fancy. As played bet turn, as played raise turn big.

Hand 2) c/shove flop

Hand 3) wtf is this? Call for set odds ldo.

how is betting the flop better because someone might have a 4. By what you're saying I go broke to a 4 anyway so why play based on someone having a 4? I figured the J is unlikely to have helped anyone else, so betting is pointless. I did raise tho, and got a fold. I thought maybe flatting and betting the river in hopes that Villain caught might be good.

That was my idea when I checked, but we have an overbet and a call all in. I'm beat here. My draws to 2p or trips might not be good. If we push here it's basically idiot-equity. If we can't say that both Villains here are idiots, we can't push.

Good point, didn't realise stack sizes. bet/bet/bet is still better imo because c/r gives them an excuse to get away from a 9. Also, c/r makes the hand v difficult on a lot of turns.

UTG+1 has an overpair here a hell of a lot and I'm not that worried about the shorty. We don't have that much FE but we have a shit ton of outs and I don't want to have to fold the turn.

Hand 1 I bet out on that flop, sadly nobody's shown any strength so you COULD flat the turn and hope they catch up on the river but IMO that isn't worth losing the off chance that they're willing to stack off here. I'd probably make a small raise inviting draws to continue.

Hand 2 is easy shove with OESD and backdoor FD, plus a top pair that is probably no good and some 2p/trip outs that just may be good, plus superawesome pot odds.

Hand 3's been covered.
