Villian is like 22/9/5 over around 100 hands. So he's pretty much a pseudo-station who knows how to raise good hands.

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, K.
Hero raises to $7, UTG+1 raises to $21, 6 folds, Hero calls $14.

Flop: ($45) T, 9, Q (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.

Turn: ($45) J (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets $40, Hero calls $40.

River: ($125) 3 (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets $80, Hero folds.

Timing tells too pretty much, but even without those... He never shows up with an 8 and playing a set like this is just retarded. I think his range is AK AK AK AK AK and more AK with a hint of KK. I'm posting this probably because today has been my worst session all month, and I may be off my rocker. What say you?

Nice hand sir. Your turn check is pretty sick.

edit: actually, what do you think his turn range is? Might be interesting to run equity against it.

We're about 2:1 vs JJ-KK AKs AK which I think is pretty liberal after seeing his bet. Before his bet, I know I'm beat if we play for stacks, and that I only have one street of value vs QQ, and I'll be able to get that on the river if the turn checks through. Also, the off chance he'll have some off the wall hand and bluff. No way he doubles with that though. You thinking turn could be a fold or something? I know it can't be a raise since he's gonna check a bunch of slowplayed sets and AA behind, while he will only call raises with at least a K. I didn't really even consider folding turn because, well, it's the second nuts, I don't like folding good hands to one bet anymore, and it's possibly wrong vs a range that may include a couple bluffs. I don't think he's looking to get value from a smaller set if he has QQ since I could have so many kings. So maybe turn is a fold. Now that would be sick.

His flop check was quite telling, imo.

Well, today was an even worse session than yesterday. I am getting ooooowwned lately. So I just wanna check if I'm still sane.

Villian is like a 12/3 little over 100 hands. After turn hits I have just one street of value at most vs his more likely overpairs, but am crushed by TT and JJ, the former of which will felt. So I check behind looking to get the value on the river.

I hate the pot button so much, but I think it saved me a little here since I don't see him thinking to get value with anything other than a T and maybe JJ QQ. Fold all day or what?

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9, 9.
2 folds, MP1 raises to $7, 2 folds, Hero calls $7, 3 folds.

Flop: ($17) 9, 8, 7 (2 players)
MP1 bets $10, Hero raises to $34, MP1 calls $24.

Turn: ($85) J (2 players)
MP1 checks, Hero checks.

River: ($85) Q (2 players)
MP1 bets $84, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $85

What about hands like QQ/JJ/KK/AA, or KQs, AQs?

Two streets of heavy value when all I need to have is any 8 or K to beat you? QQ wants a cheap showdown.
