Deanglow is on a distinguished road
 Hand 1 Villain is standard weak tight who calls too much preflop. Was a shorty I think.

CO ($216.60)
Button ($209.70)
Hero ($321.05)
BB ($230.90)
UTG ($227.40)
UTG+1 ($167.90)
MP1 ($200.80)
MP2 ($197)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 6, 7.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $2, 4 folds, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($6) A, J, 2 (3 players)
Hero bets $6, BB folds, UTG+1 calls $6.

Turn: ($18) A (2 players)
Hero bets $14, UTG+1 calls $14.

River: ($46) 6 (2 players)
Hero bets $30, UTG+1 raises to $84, Hero

No reads on this villain. Comments on all streets welcome.

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

UTG ($303.10)
UTG+1 ($197)
MP1 ($192)
MP2 ($210)
MP3 ($279.10)

Villain is a standard TAG. I have no reason think he is bad, and he certainly isn't bluffing here. Do I have FE? Do you fold?

 1. Hard to say. I don't like folding since his line is so non-standard with a flopped boat, and if he's decent the only thing we beat is a bluff. Which he doesn't have since he's weak. So getting about 2:1 it's probably a fold, but I think I still pay off since I've seen weird stuff show up from weird players when all three previous streets plays exactly the same on similar flop. Or he probably just has A6s.

2. What did you bet the turn for? A king stacks off to you so rarely. A diamond on river sucks, but only if this unknown is real good or real stupid will he bluff you.

3. You have no FE. Four hands to flop and your tag cold caller raises? He isn't bluffing. If you think you're getting the odds to draw (which I don't think you are) then calling is good since he will be scared without the nuts and may check turn behind. I think I'm just folding, though.

4. Not folding to his possible float/draw/pair. River is the harder part. If he still likes his hand I may fold.

5. I could go for both a bet/fold or check/call.

Hand 1, his line doesnt really make sense for anything other than a flopped flush, or maybe AJ but i think its a fold.

Hand 2, why didnt you raise the flop? His bet seems like a FD and i think you are letting him get off too cheaply, and your villian dead posted the BB UTG, which makes me lose some respect for him. When the diamond hits i really dont like that bet and as played i think you have to fold.

Hand 3, his line is screaming set, so i don't really like the push. maybe he has KcQc, but you are way behind that too. So, having to call 56 into a pot of ~161, i think its a fold. You are almost certainly not getting a free river card, and not making enough on the times that you hit the club on the turn.

Hand 4, it kinda looks like he is floating you, so i like a turn call. River is tricky basically regardless what hits, so maybe a turn lead is good? If we bet turn and he raises we can fold easily, and he would probably check down river without a better hand then us if he just calls. I dunno, im undecided on this one.

Hand 5, i dont think that is a particularly good river for you because it only makes us beat A10 which would almost certainly bet the turn. I think his range is heavily weighted to flush draws or air because a set has to bet the turn but something like 10dXd could check through. I think the best line here is c/c because nothing we beat calls a bet except maybe AQ. I dont think a fold would be right on the river but i expect to be shown a flush a lot here.

 1). fold

2). agree w/ papal you really should raise this flop - K-x will want to get in too.

3). with $160 already in the pot, as well as the possibility he is doing this with K-Qo, you don't need any fold equity to make felting +EV.

4). as played check/raise all in, your range will definitely contain flush draws and he may call with 9-x. i prefer bet/fold on the turn versus an unknown. check/calling is worse than check/folding.

5). you are only a 3:1 dog versus A-3/A-10, and 3-3/10-10 are the only hands that really dominate you. shove the flop since villain will be about priced in to call with a flush draw. I'm sure people will show up w/ A-Q here too. as played yea that was a bad river for you, check/fold.

without the backdoor straight/flush draws, getting raised on the flop is a lot crappier. Then i would probably call the raise and check/fold the turn.

1.) I've called way too many of these and lose pretty much all of them.

2.) Raise-call the flop, there's only one hand you worry about.

3.) Probably a set of threes. This is never a bluff.

4.) Bet the turn. This is a draw heavy board (two flush draws now!) Do you think he would slowplay a set on a drawy board...doesn't seem too likely.

5.) Check-call. There's a few two pair combinations you beat, and against an unknown with no reads you can't put them solely on the nuts.
Save your stories 'cuz they're all the same..
