Reviewing my hands... I'm seeing myself doing this quite often..


BOBBLEHEAD - Posts small blind $0.50
STEVEIEJAY - Posts big blind $1
*** POCKET CARDS ***
Dealt to EUPHOLOGI [7 5]
WINTERHAWK7 - Folds
IMBUSTO - Raises $3 to $3
EUPHOLOGI - Calls $3

Horribly spewy? I never did this at 50NL, and under the guise of "opening my game" I think I'm cold calling too much.


BOBBLEHEAD - Folds
STEVEIEJAY - Calls $2
*** FLOP *** [6 3 9]
STEVEIEJAY - Checks
IMBUSTO - Checks
EUPHOLOGI - Bets $7

Standard?



STEVEIEJAY - Calls $7
IMBUSTO - Folds
*** TURN *** [6c 3s 9s] [J]
STEVEIEJAY - Checks
EUPHOLOGI - Checks

Standard.

*** RIVER *** [6c 3s 9s Jh] [8]
STEVEIEJAY - Bets $12
EUPHOLOGI - Calls $12

Crappy card, don't see any reason to raise.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

It's hard to throw away anything playable on the button.
I would usually bet this flop with 8 straight outs. If you only had 4, I might just check through and bet turn if checked to.

Turn, whatever he has it's got to beat you in a showdown, and unlikely you will bluff him off.

River is fine. Would you call if the river was the 7s?

I think I am more likely to bet with 4 straight outs when action goes check/check to me on the flop with a 2 flush board...

anyways, yea this hand is std
