1) fine.
2) Id shove the turn and lose just as much. reraise bigger preflop though unless you have some specific reason not to.
3) wtf raise preflop. As played I cant see why you wouldnt stack off with top 2 Vs a shorty.
4) Ok.
5) I think I like this line actually although Id also consider checking behind the turn since the A is a scarecard for alot of the hands you want value from.
6) I like. Might bet slightly bigger on the turn though,

Might answer some more tomorrow.

gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

bigspenda73: But how much did you win?

Hand 1: Standard.

Hand 2: I raise the flop harder because after a raise to $25 he's calling $14 in a pot of $57.50 which gives him correct odds to call with a flush draw.

Hand 3: I raise preflop everytime here.

Hand 4: I don't like the flop raise here unless opponent is notably loose or 3-bets preflop with a wide range of hands. The only hand he doesn't 3-bet the flop with is AK, imo. I call the flop and evaluate my odds on the turn.

Hand 5: Well played, imo. I prefer a bet/fold on the river here as well.

Hand 6: Standard.

Hand 7: Standard, but I generally reraise preflop.

Hand 8: Turn bet is out of place here. Again, I reraise preflop.

Hand 9: Depending on the player I could fold to a 4-bet here, but keep in mind that I'm a nit.

Hand 10: I check behind on the river. As played, your river bet looks weird.

Hand 11: I probably check/call flop depending on the player. You're good to get it all in on the turn here. What's up with these weak bets of less than half the pot?

Hand 12: Again I could see a check/call on flop but it depends. Yet again, you're also in great shape getting it all in on the turn here.

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.

9) Its a cash game. You have to rely on reads. You don't have to get "married" with your hands pf strength.

12) realize that when you cold-call a pf raise with a small pocket pair, your main intention is to flop a set and then go for broke. If you flop a set in a HU pot, you pretty much have the nuts. In a multiway pot, your hand is still very strong, but less strong.
Very, very few times you will have to avoid going for broke, like say against four-to a flush with no pair onboard.
