I promissed myself that I should start posting hand histories about a month ago so it's about time now. Anyway here are some big pots from todays session.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($33.50)
BB ($101.57)
UTG ($51.90)
Hero ($56.45)
UTG+2 ($109.67)
Villain ($47.75)
MP2 ($43.42)
MP3 ($25.35)
CO ($52.80)
Button ($115.08)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with K, K. SB posts a blind of $0.25. CO posts a blind of $0.75.
1 fold, Hero raises to $2.5, 1 fold, Villain calls $2.50, 6 folds.

Flop: ($6.50) Q, 7, 6 (2 players)
Hero bets $4, Villain raises to $10, Hero calls $6.

Turn: ($26.50) 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, Villain bets $15, Hero raises to $38.43, Villain folds.

Final Pot: $79.93

Villain seemed good, maybe just a bit passive preflop. I definitely put him on a lot of hands with a Q here so I was prepared to play for stacks. Is there a better way to get all the money in?

BB ($38.35)
UTG ($73.15)
Villain ($59.37)
MP1 ($49)
MP2 ($42.44)
Hero ($48.75)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K, K. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
1 fold, Villain raises to $2, 2 folds, Hero raises to $7, 4 folds, UTG+1 =#A500AF(Villain)/ calls $5.

Flop: ($14.75) 3, 4, J (2 players)

River: ($44.75) 3 (2 players)
Villain checks, Hero calls $26.75 (All-In), Villain calls $26.75.

Final Pot: $98.25

Villain in this hand was nitty. I think his stats at the time was something like 10/4. More importantly though, my image at the table was supermaniac/superfish.

BB ($10)
UTG ($88.16)
UTG+1 ($26.21)
UTG+2 ($38.75)
MP1 ($67.15)
MP2 ($49.25)
MP3 ($53.80)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A, A. Hero posts a blind of $0.25.
7 folds, Villain raises to $2, Hero raises to $6.75, 1 fold, Button =#A500AF(Villain)/ calls $5.

Hero bets $12, Villain calls $12.

Turn: ($38.50) T (2 players)
Hero bets $25, Villain calls $25.

River: ($88.50) 4 (2 players)
Hero calls $49.25 (All-In), Villain calls $49.25.

Final Pot: $187

This was at the same table as the previous hand but my image was definitely tighter/more solid now. Not a lot of hands on villain but he seemed fishy. Thoughts about playing this big a pot with an overpair against a relatively unknown player? I didn't really get any resistance.

I definitely messed up on this hand. Is a raise on the turn always neccessary? Unknown villain. I don't know what to put in his range either.
