    Macro economics is well beyond the scope of my knowledge - though as an Australian, I don't really think we were safe because of reserve bank or gov policy. I could be very ignorant though.

    Yes you guys are right obviously, I think I'm partially swayed by what it was like when I started playing years and years ago. Games were proper soft and a 10-15 buyin bankroll was considered pretty...

    As daven said, villain can have non nut flush draws that we should be betting into for value - Which is the likely result is villain is a fish.

    If villain is a bit more aware, checking the turn is...

    I don't like betting rivers, the only thing we are trying to do is get value out of Qx hands, maybe some mid pps. If I have Qx (as the villain) heros large river bet is a weird line that I would...

    as played I think fold river, I actually expect villain to show up with TT reasonably often here - though my opinion may be a little weighted towards behaviour at lower levels.

    so the small flop bet encourages draws to chase, then the full pot bet on the turn encourages alot of the hands you beat to fold.

    Your villain is loose passive you say, and you want all the chips...
  9. Both QQ and AA are probably not in your villains...

    Both QQ and AA are probably not in your villains range because we would expect a preflop 3bet. AQ possibly is.

    your right about your flop sizing being bad, make it atleast 2/3rds to whole pot.

    Well because its not 100k VPPs for $1600.. its 100K FPPs, and SNEs earn 5 FPPs per VPP, comparitively to 3.5/vpp for supernovas.

    Ultimately, SNE's get more like 60%+ (75% for 2nd time continuing...
