1- I check behind and see what card/action comes from SB.

2- Hero is all over that shit

3- Hero raises more preflop. Why did you check the turn? If you wanted some action you have it, so go with it.

4- Again raises more preflop. With your check on the turn he may be trying to buy the pot. With the K to the flush here I say fuck it a lot and gamble with a shove.

5- OMG easy call

6- You checked the turn. To me that says something like AK that missed. I call this river more often then not. I also don't check the turn in the first place though.

7- Turn bet was weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak. I sometimes throw a blocking bet on the river here. If CO had something like 78 your turn size allowed him to come along. His bet looks more like for value then as a bluff.

Results
1) I was hero and SB had AcJc for the flush. Congratulations putting in $40+ drawing dead

2) I was villain and had 99, 3/4 stacker had AK. I am curious whether bottom set is foldable for 200BB given the action

3) I was hero, timed out and folded, villain showed JJ for set

4) I was hero and reluctantly folded

5) I was hero, they each had J9 and 72 of clubs so I clenaed them out

6) I was villain and made a reckless bluff w/ 53 of diamonds. Villain hesitated for long before calling

7) I was villain and had 6s4s. I floated flop with what looked like a strong overcall, but then I caught my thin draw and got paid.

I think it is foldable. Of course it hurts to do so, and I don't know if I could during the actual hand, but UTG's line is really scary.

3) Villain def aint drawing so this is WA/WB. Now you just gotta ask how often a worse hand calls a turn bet. I think a J is hanging around more so I'd rather b/f here. I think c/r is the worst line as there's no way a worse hand is calling.

I thought seriously about bet/fold on turn, but I didn't think that would give me enough information. If he flatted my $22 or so turn bet what would I do -- check/call any or bet/fold -- on river? If I c/r I induced him to think that I really liked my hand (which I didn't) and caused him to tip off the strength of his own hand.
