 Hey guys,

I'd appreciate some linechecks on a few of these hands. Thanks!

Hand 1:
-The villain in the first two hands is the same passive villain, who is running at 45/1.82/.85, though over a small sample
-I haven't noticed him making any crazy river calls yet
-Is there any value in a river bet? draws will fold anyhow, and i'm not sure what worse hands are calling. Also, a check raise would make me sick here

Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $97.50
UTG+1: $126.75
CO: $62.75
Hero: $117.75
SB: $105.25
BB: $118.25

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with
2 folds, CO calls, Hero calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Flop: ($3.5, 3 players)
BB checks, CO checks, Hero bets $3.25, BB folds, CO calls.

Turn: ($10, 2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $7.25, CO calls.

River: ($24.5, 2 players)
CO checks, Hero??


Hand 2:
-Yah I know, I really should have bet this flop. But there were a few aggro players behind me who usually take stabs, so I wanted to let them in. Didn't work well on the flop
-Given how passive villain is, is this a river fold or auto-call?

UTG: $96.75
UTG+1: $158.51
CO: $130.25
Button: $56
Hero: $141.75
BB: $107

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is SB with
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO folds, Button calls, Hero calls, BB checks.

Flop: ($4, 4 players)

Turn: ($4, 4 players)
Hero bets $3.5, 2 folds, Button calls.

River: ($11, 2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $22, Hero ??

Hand 3:
-villain is 25/14/4
-This hand isn't overly interesting, though i'm wondering if this is a standard river call or fold. My biggest leak lately has been calling too many decent sized river bets like this one, and losing. So I'm trying to tighten up a bit
-call, since my turn check induced a bet, or fold to his possible flush?

 1) Value bet
2) I dont know, I'd probably lay it down given how passive he is.
3) Callio

I agree that Hand 1 I certianly could have raised, and 3 I sometimes re-pop or sometimes call. Villain was raising from EP in hand 3, so I gave him some respect and flat called.

Hand 2, you always raise KQ from the sb? I sometimes raise here, but its not the greatest hand, and we have pretty bad position.
