Carroters has a spectacular aura aboutCarroters has a spectacular aura about
 1. Villain is 43/8 over 25 hands. I haven't seen him do anything like this yet.

I figured there were likely more combos of flushdraws and 99-JJ (77) here than sets or straights.

Standard call?

No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB ($54.85)
Hero (UTG) ($50)
MP ($52.05)
CO ($53.75)
Button ($51.25)
SB ($56.15)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q
Hero bets $2, 2 folds, Button calls $2, SB calls $1.75, BB calls $1.50

Flop: ($8) 6, 3, 2 (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $5.80, Button raises $49.25 (All-In), Hero?

2. Villain is a reg running 21/14 and has folded to 2 of 3 3 bets so far over 50 hands. My image is pretty aggro and I've been 3-betting a bunch this session. He probably flats the 3 bet relatively wide.

After he calls flop, I discounted most Ax hands from his range and thus bet pretty small to induce a call from kings or even a stubborn pocket pair that wasn't believing me. This river really confused me because it felt like KJ KQ etc were a big part of his range after he calls flop and turn. I felt c/f was gorss though given SPR so elected to shove the rest in myself in order to stack some random Ax hand that had floated the flop.

Thoughts on my line?

No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Button ($73.45)
Hero (SB) ($52.15)
BB ($50)
UTG ($42.15)
MP ($50.10)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q, A
2 folds, Button bets $1.50, Hero raises $5.25, 1 fold, Button calls $4

Flop: ($11.50) 9, 7, K (2 players)
Hero bets $6.75, Button calls $6.75

Turn: ($25) A (2 players)
Hero bets $13.60, Button calls $13.60

River: ($52.20) K (2 players)
Hero bets $26.30 (All-In)

3. Sorry if this one's just totally boring and standard, but I wanted to check this wasn't too nitty.

Villain is relatively unknown over only 20 hands, but looks TAGGY and solid preflop running 22/19. I didn't think this was a board he'd barrel overcrads on on this turn, since it doesn't change the texture or improve his range at all. I'm sure most 50Nl TAG regs wont expect to fold out hands like 88 or 99 by beting the turn, nor will they want to triple barrel vs an unknown all often.

I guess it feels more natural for my plan should be to peel one more and fold to a river bet?

1 fold, MP bets $2, 3 folds, Hero calls $1.50

Flop: ($4.25) 5, 6, 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $3, Hero calls $3

Turn: ($10.25) 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $6.75, Hero folds

Total pot: $10.25

 1) meh call, I'm not super thrilled by it but I don't think I can find a fold vs somebody who is just clicking buttons on that wet of a board.

2) It's really thin but with so little money behind I'd probably play the same.

3) I'd call turn fold river. Your getting a pretty good price and a lot of ppl will just bet 2 and give up as I don't expect him to be really adjusting well to different board textures and turn cards.

 1. since i also play 50nl, i can say this is a call i'd happily make

2. on that Kxx flop with two backdoor draws i'd be betting the flop big to set up for a turn shove if an Ace/diamond comes on the turn. maybe shove on T/J depending on how much of his range you think is 66-TT and if he folds those.

3. agree with meeloche

2 id rather c/c since i doubt much worse is calling and he might bluff diamonds. either way we lose to kings but im not folding

3 if you call pre you must call turn imo

 1 - call

2 - I think shove is good, because I'm not sure that he bets with AT, AJ - but these hands probably call you

3 - if he bets more - I'm folding
- this is marginal, but probably I would call it and fold on the river

Hand 2.) Is it just me that dislikes the flop bet sizing? I'd rather 3/4 it and go for a strong double barrel as he is always gonna put you on AK anyway. I feel your going to get into quite a few nasty turn spots and/or have the weakness of that bet attacked a ton.
