Learning the game again

[UG]

I'm just getting back into the game after a 2+ year hiatus. I've been keeping my head above water so far. Here's a hand from tonight that I felt like I 'effed up.

Reads: 35/17 but I haven't seen him do anything crazy post-flop, only 30 hands.

I could have either a) checked on the turn, b) folded to his raise, or c) went all-in. Instead I called his raise.....

I felt like he was strong here but called anyway.

I left results because I know I played this hand horribly and don't mind hearing about it. I'm trying to learn the game again.

preflop is good

683 multiway is a flop you probably don't want to cbet multiway. i dont like the turn double barrel because a 2 changes nothing and if hes calling you on the flop hes calling you on turn

I probably wouldnt c-bet this flop, because it doesn't really hit our range. If I did, i'd be wary of someone calling as with such a dry flop it might very well mean two pair/set. Wouldn't bet the turn, and would probably fold to the minraise..as played river fold was good. (IMO).

Sure it does. We can have 99+ and sets! :P
