 Table is 2€-2€ sb/bb, 50-250€ buyins, no dealer tipping allowed, sitting in scandanavia and table chat suggests that a few are regs, at least one is semi-pro online 200nl, and the two drunks are decent norwegians on a stag party trip.

Post-flop the table seems kinda tight, haven't seen much action from players with less than TPTK.

I've been at the table about an hour.
There is a lot of limping going on, and a lot of pre-flop calling.

Villain in the hand is a little loose pre, significant hands are him bet-calling all-in on a 346 mono flop with a Q-high flush in a limped pot vs his buddy who had top set. Other than that he's been happy to fold. He talks and jokes a bunch, we've been having some good banter but there is a bunch of dislike against a couple of players who are targeting and have managed to suck-out to get deep. I'm struggling to follow some of the dynamic cos i don't speak swedish....

Couple of limpers and 34s looks good enough to call the button.
Flop could be a fold but the bb is never squeezing and my hand is probably fairly hidden. Turn I think is easy check behind cos i hate a check-raise. River sizing is interesting, i've been on fairly quiet hands so far - i obviously have to raise, and i would love to get it 3-way or induce a shove. If i shove then the blind fish is auto-folding, but maybe he'll call along if i just raise. UTG is capable of folding two pair to a shove - raise size?


200€ No Limit Holdem
10 players

Stacks:
UTG drunk stag party not awful (310€)
UTG+1 drunk stag party running bad nit-tight(200€)
MP1 Nit ($180€)
MP2 seems decent (490€)
MP3 seems decent played a couple of $1500 wsop events(x)
CO deadmoney ($110€)
BTN Hero ($198€)
SB random passive($420€)
BB bad passive pre, bluff stupid post ($300€)

Pre-flop:
Hero is Button
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, 3 folds, CO calls, hero calls, sb completes, bb checks

Flop: :Ks: (12€, 6 players)
UTG donks 8€, UTG+1 calls, folds, hero calls, sb folds, bb calls.

Turn: :Js: (48€, 4 players)
checks around, hero checks

River: (48€, 4 players)
UTG donks 26€, hero raises to 66€, bb folds,
UTG gets chatty
"so, you want a call or a fold?"
Hero, "call, fold, whatever"
"how many chips left?"
Hero looks to count rather than insta-answering, a friendly swede helps him out.
UTG stares at me a while, I keep smiling, I've been smiling the whole time at the table. It's a friendly game. Thoughts?
don't raise with the straight flush bro, nobody ever gonna call that shit
allin, reload, repeat

 Looks like you played the hand perfectly.

If I'm going to nit-pick it's that you should keep your mouth shut most of the time when facing questions during a hand vs villain. You may be giving a lot of information for free.


Girlfriend: Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?
