Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
 I almost timed out on the river in hand 1 deciding whether to value-bet or not.

What do you do on the river in hand 2 based on the action in hand 1 (i.e. villain’s passive play OOP)? The paradox is villain coming out and firing OOP in hand 2 vs his check-calling a strong hand in hand 1. Does this mean I put him on a weaker or a stronger hand? Does it tell me he likes his hand MORE or LESS? I felt a huge donkish urge to minraise the river in hand 2 FWIW.

Hand 1 :

Seat 4 is the button
Total number of players : 6
Seat 4: Ricochet177 ( $242.75 )
Seat 5: Bagadu ( $624.90 )
Seat 3: HERO ( $370.65 )
Seat 1: oOkayplayer ( $237.85 )
Seat 2: Pavel55 ( $233 )
Seat 6: Comaz5 ( $176.55 )
Bagadu posts small blind [$1].
Comaz5 posts big blind [$2].

** Dealing down cards **

Dealt to HERO [ As 9h ]
oOkayplayer folds.
Pavel55 folds.
HERO raises [$7]
Ricochet177 folds.
Bagadu calls [$6]
Comaz5 folds.

** Dealing Flop ** [ 4s, Ah, 9s ]

Bagadu checks.
HERO bets [$15]
Bagadu calls [$15]

** Dealing Turn ** [ Ts ]

Bagadu checks.
HERO bets [$41]
Bagadu calls [$41]

** Dealing River ** [ Qd ]
Bagadu checks.
HERO bets [$66]
Bagadu calls [$66]
HERO shows [ As, 9h ]two pairs, Aces and Nines.
Bagadu shows [ Ac, Tc ]two pairs, Aces and Tens.
Bagadu wins $256.50 from the main pot with two pairs, Aces and Tens.


Hand 2 :

Seat 3 is the button
Total number of players : 6
Seat 5: Bagadu ( $765.25 )
Seat 3: HERO ( $234.60 )
Seat 1: oOkayplayer ( $234.85 )
Seat 2: Pavel55 ( $220.10 )
Seat 6: Comaz5 ( $209.25 )
Seat 4: SpecTickle ( $200 )
Bagadu posts small blind [$1].
Comaz5 posts big blind [$2].

** Dealing down cards **

Dealt to HERO [ Ad Ah ]
oOkayplayer folds.
Pavel55 folds.
HERO raises [$7]
Bagadu calls [$6]
Comaz5 folds.

** Dealing Flop ** [ 6c, Jc, 5s ]

Bagadu checks.
HERO bets [$11]
Bagadu raises [$22]
HERO calls [$11]

** Dealing Turn ** [ Qh ]

Bagadu bets [$28]
HERO calls [$28]

** Dealing River ** [ 7s ]

HERO…

Hand #1, I think you need to check behind here. You only beat AJ, AK. AT & AQ just made their hand and a slow played flush might be milking you. You built a nice pot, but I think I check behind. Caveat: I am a results Nit sometimes. Wish I didn't see them.

Hand #2, Again I'm wimpy, but I just call the river. Their are a lot of connected cards that provide 2 pair opportunities. This could also be a set wanting to get value from a Qx . It also looks like a missed draw. Is villain capable of firing 3 barrels.
I think a river min-raise is the sexy, but I don't have the balls.
Of course I don't know his stats or playing tendencies. Is he TAG, sLAG, TP, SLP, LAG. I'm trying to figure a starting range for Hand #2. SC's? Unsuited Conns? Suited junk?
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

 why are u posting results in hand 1?
Hand 1: I probably check behind, i just dont know whats calling that ur beating besides A4, and that probably doesn't.
Hand 2: I don't see myself folding to a bet that weak. I'm probably not raising.
