1) New to the table, no reads. Am I supposed to fold to the reraise preflop? How much do I bet on the river?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB ($57.60)
Hero ($49.50)
MP ($55.15)
CO ($23.20)
Button ($56)
SB ($92.35)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, K.
Hero raises to $2, MP raises to $5, 4 folds, Hero calls $3.

Flop: ($10.75) K, T, 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $5, Hero calls $5.

Turn: ($20.75) Q (2 players)
Hero checks, MP checks.

River: ($20.75) 8 (2 players)
Hero bets $15, MP folds.

Final Pot: $35.75


2) No reads, only ten hands at this table so far. Should I bet the turn and fold to a raise?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB ($7.70)
UTG ($78.75)
Hero ($53.70)
CO ($8.95)
Button ($119.35)
SB ($43.20)

Preflop: Hero is MP with T, T.
1 fold, Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, Button raises to $6.5, 2 folds, Hero calls $4.50.

Flop: ($13.75) K, 5, 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button checks.

Turn: ($13.75) 3 (2 players)
Hero ?


3) Is my line okay? Fold preflop? Or do some people raise this on the CO? Table dependent?

Not much to say about the villian. He's been sitting there short since I got to the table 30 or so hands ago. He hasn't won any big pots and he doesn't raise preflop (ever).

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($64.65)
MP ($84)
Hero ($48.95)
Button ($32.50)
SB ($51.55)
BB ($15.30)

Preflop: Hero is CO with J, K.
1 fold, MP calls $0.50, Hero raises to $2.5, Button calls $2.50, 2 folds, MP folds.

Flop: ($6.25) 6, J, 7 (2 players)
Hero bets $4.5, Button calls $4.50.

Turn: ($15.25) A (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $2.5, Hero calls $2.50.

River: ($20.25) J (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $5, Hero calls $5.

Final Pot: $30.25

Hand 1: I think your fine calling this. Played well.
Hand 2: You are not beating much here that he would have reraised PF with(AQ). I would try to check it down.
Hand 3: This is an always raise behind limpers, I would have bet that A on the turn, as played you need to raise that weak river bet.

1. Standard.

2. With QQ I'd bet, maybe JJ too, but with TT here it looks like he has QQ/JJ that will call a turn bet, or a slowplayed AA/KK/AK. AQ and other stuff would likely bet the flop. So yeah, c/f here.

3. Bet this river for sure. As played I think a river raise is in order, looks like he is squeezing value with Ax or something.

In hand 1, why aren't we declaring war on the flop?

1) I assume you were going to c/r the turn ai?
3) I shove the river (~20 into 20). Preflop is a trivial raise.

Wouldn't raising turn the hand into a bluff?

When you hit on a scare card you should almost always bet.

I put him on JJ-QQ as well. Doesnt that mean we can push him off these hands if we bet turn, he calls, and we bet river strong?
