Most of these hands have little reads because its my first time at the limit...

1. her range seems super polarized here, how do i decide if there are enough bluffs in it for me to call her down?

SB ($136.20)
Hero (BB) ($50)
UTG ($50)
Button ($124.10)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9, 3
1 fold, Button calls $0.50, 1 fold, Hero checks

Flop: ($1.25) 9, 7, 3 (2 players)
Hero bets $1.50, Button calls $1.50

Turn: ($4.25) K (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $2.50, Hero calls $2.50

River: ($9.25) 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $8.80

2. this guys been three betting me a ton, from position and from the blinds. i decide to take a stand while in position and see how he plays post flop... KQ seems to be what he is trying to rep... or maybe he has QQ... his line is so weird, it makes me wanna call him down, could see him having something weird like AJ here

3. hmmm was the 4bet here bad? I guess it let me know that he is probably ahead... can i put AK and QQ in his range or not? standard fold? or should i be thinking something else. villain hasnt been out of line so far

nope, since I just realize the flush got there in the first hand, you do not have the nuts.

Prob is a fold, given that people that limp are generally very passive donks that aren't likely to bluff.

AJdd hand- I don't get it, what are you trying to accomplish by minraising turn and also betting river? Get him off Tx?

eh he was cautious and prolly folds too much, i thought i could get him off AQ sometimes and anything worse, didnt really matter that i rep basically nothing

and ya.. button limp i dont see much im beating in retrospect, hard to find hands to even put in a range that dont beat me

hand 2 what are you putting in his range that i beat?

hand 3 any comment or you think shoving is fine?

 2) Not sure what his range is, seems like nonsense though so call and find out

3) Ohhh, 200bb deep, hard to say without reads. Prob a call.

Fold if u feel he's a mega nit. 4bet if you feel he's a capable reg.

2) you're good, he had k9, what made you feel that way, just the stupid looking line?

3) he isn't a nitt but i havent been out of line enough for him to think im stealing super light from the CO, and the huge 3bet seems pretty over kill. i feel like i should have flatted the 3bet. i need to start flatting ak to 3bets maybe, i like never do that unless its like some uber nitt idiot

 1) The fact that you're sure that its a she means you can fold river pretty easily. I'd probably bet the turn though.

2) You played it fine.

3) I would always call here and play a pot in position. No reason to 4 bet here at these stakes 200bb deep unless its vs a complete monkey.

 Hand 1 - meh fold

Hand 2 - preflop I'm not a huge fan, but as played call

Hand 3 - I'd call the 3bet. I doubt we're ahead of his 5bet jamming range 200bb deep

Hand 4 - Yah I'm confused by this hand, but I would just take the A high showdown on river. Turn raise also accomplishes nothing.

 1 bet turn and river, dont c/c. as played fold riv

2. sigh and call down. QQ is in a lot of peoples range here but a lot of times they just realize its one of their more likely hands so they turn a bluffcatcher into a bluff.

3. call the 3bet fo sho

eh its horrible, i just posted it because alexos said i was juust posting with the nuts so i had to prove my non-nittinesss!!!! lol... ignore it

for hand 3 i think im having trouble with when to 4bet ak and when not, is it pretty much only when i think he 3bets quite light? or is there much more advantage if im oop?
