Villain is MP3. He isn't super aggressive or super passive and plays lots of hands pre-flop. Besides folding pre-flop, how is everything else?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP1 ($1.34)
MP2 ($4.40)
MP3 ($7.24)
Hero ($9.98)
Button ($1.89)
SB ($5.98)
BB ($2.97)
UTG ($2.17)
UTG+1 ($3.06)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, 6.
UTG calls $0.05, 3 folds, MP3 calls $0.05, Hero calls $0.05, 1 fold, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.25) 3, 2, 9 (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP3 checks, Hero bets $0.05, SB calls $0.05, BB folds, UTG folds, MP3 calls $0.05.

Turn: ($0.40) 3 (3 players)
SB checks, MP3 checks, Hero bets $0.1, SB calls $0.10, MP3 raises to $0.8, Hero calls $0.70, SB calls $0.70.

River: ($2.80) 6 (3 players)
SB checks, MP3 bets $1.9, Hero raises to $9.08, SB folds, MP3 calls $4.44 (All-In).

Final Pot: $18.22

fold preflop

bet flop more agressively.. I like $.25

turn just sucks with the board pair. I think this is fine. I'd just call the river. NL10 donk factor might lean me towards a push.

Just fold preflop. Short of hitting a non-nut flush, does Q6s have any post-flop playability?

I disagree. Lukie, what if the flop comes QQ6 or Q66 or QQQ or 666?


J/k Like he said, fold that sh*t preflop. As for the hand, pot the flop or $.20 at the least. Minbetting here sucks. You want to build the pot so you can hammer the turn and river, and also charge higher flush draws. As for the board pairing, I'm not worried at all about a boat here. Do you think a set or 2-pair plays this passively on the flop? I like a turn 3-bet. Pop it up to $2.50 and get the rest in on the river. Trips will probably pay you off here.

But the important thing that Lukie and myself were getting at is that you need to tighten up your preflop requirements, and increase your agression post-flop. Improving these things are much more important than if you actually won or lost the hand.

Other than the obvious:

Bet more aggressively. Any0ne with the king or ace of spades is loving your small bets, so cheap! When you have a strong hand, drop the hammer. Only slowplay when you want your opponent(s) to catch up. This is not the case.

Let me put it this way, I'll play all sorts of crap on the button for a limp behind terrible players and if I was looking at Q6s I'd be like....mehh.....meh.....fold...

However if it was Q9s....
