I trying to pick good spots to play back at villians where i just call. Ive alot to do to improve this part of my game, improving this aspect should make my marginal hands alot more profitable.


hand 1 - Vs reg tag, Ive done some floating already where he barrelled one, i bet turn and a 3rd where i delayed float.

$0.5/$1 No Limit Holdem
4 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
CO OMGUSHOVE ($277.40)
BTN Hero ($205.25)
SB Mr-T ($333.45)
BB Marc80 ($66.27)

Pre-flop: ($1.50, 4 players) Hero is BTN
OMGUSHOVE raises to $4, Hero calls $4, 2 folds

Flop: ($9.50, 2 players)
OMGUSHOVE bets $5, Hero calls $5

Turn: ($19.50, 2 players)
OMGUSHOVE bets $12, Hero raises to $32

hand 2 - Vs another but tighter reg. Im toning down my 3bets vs utgs. this guy will call 3bets lightly in CO and BTN but Im not sure of his utg 3bet calling range.

$0.5/$1 No Limit Holdem
6 players

BB Ludde21 ($77.27)

Pre-flop: ($1.50, 6 players) Hero is BTN
Mr-T raises to $4, 2 folds, Hero calls $4, 2 folds

Flop: ($9.50, 2 players)
Mr-T bets $7, Hero calls $7

Turn: ($23.50, 2 players)
Mr-T bets $16, Hero raises to $42

Any thoughts appreciated. Especially on betsizing.
Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

1 - This probably works a high %, you probably have to fire river big if he calls (maybe even an overbet shove?)

2 - I just fold flop, his UTG double barreling range is probably pretty strong, and I doubt he folds anything decent with a heart.

 both are good in the sense that you can represent a wide range of value hands. in 1, a problem is that his turn double barrel range is not wide. As such, you should have a read that he can lay down a legitimate hand. in 2, a problem is that you have very poor equity when called. it would be better if you had a heart. a good thing about 2 is that he should be double barreling with a wider (weaker) range.
My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.
