25NL: Trips, CBs, TPTK, AA

I've now played 2.5k hands at 25NL, things are going wellish.
Lets just say its nice having the poker gods behind ya.

Hand one:
Villain 11/6/2.5
Only over 40hands.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP ($69.72)
Hero (Button) ($28.69)
SB ($33.61)
BB ($33.16)
UTG ($16.18)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 10, A
2 folds, Hero bets $0.75, 1 fold, BB calls $0.50

Flop: ($1.60) 9, A, A (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1, BB raises to $4, Hero calls $3

Turn: ($9.60) 2 (2 players)
BB bets $7.50,
Hero either shoves or folds.
Things going through heros mind:
1 Would he cold call oop with A-rag/ should 3bet Ak-Aq.
2 Would he actually checkraise and lead with worse
3 chances of him checkraising as a bluff and then leading after we call.
4 My timebank is expiring
If we're him is checkraising the best option versus a buttons opening range? Don't we push out alot of hands that would bet the turn (taking into account if the button doesn't have a worse ace)




Hand 2:
Villain is 71/17/1.2 over 70hands
Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Hero (SB) ($33.12)
BB ($9)
UTG ($23.95)
MP ($36.41)
CO ($5.72)
Button ($78.47)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q, K
1 fold, MP calls $0.25, 1 fold, Button calls $0.25, Hero bets $1.50, 1 fold, MP calls $1.25, Button calls $1.25

Flop: ($4.75) A, 8, 9 (3 players)
should hero be betfolding, or is A-rag to much of his range(which will not fold ever)

What shoves here as worse after c/c c/c
His stats represent fish but there only over 10hands.

1. b/f flop
2. which one is villain? There's 2 in there. I'd raise more preflop and c/f flop
3. RR small or something to make him spazz/call with barely any stack left. I guess calling him down couldn't be bad since he's so short.
4. Bet a tad more on turn. I guess fold river? I don't know. I just don't see the one pair hands he can have waiting for the river to do this.

oh god no don't b/f hand 1

Then what c/c? B/c looks gross with his stats.

why? if he raises he's repping a super thin range
does he have AQ/AJ/A9/99 every single time he raises the flop?

he has clubs or a hand like TT or a complete bluff some of the time (yes, nits bluff sometimes)
not sure if we're super happy getting it in, but he probably thinks we miss this flop a lot since our button range is super wide so I can't see folding when we actually hit about the best flop we could with our hand other than AAT

Disagree he has a flush draw here unless it's KcQc. So now we have to assume he bluffs basically 100% since all he has are PP (imo) that he uses to bluff and I just don't buy it. I think his range has us crushed.

omg we 3x the button, the reason we do this is b/c non thinking players call with like A5o cuz they're stupid

so you're saying if he's sitting there with JTs he says "he obviously flopped trips, raising here never takes the pot down"

No you misread me. I'm saying he only has KQs/PPs/AJ+ so he would never have JTs. I'm saying, with my range, that he'd have to use his PPs to bluff (except for KQs) like 100% and I do not buy that he does that.

he probably 3bs AQ+
so you're putting him on 99, AJ exactly aka the only hands that beat us that are in his range

why cant he just be a fucking idiot, we only have like 40 hands on him

well considering he's 11/6 I have a strong suspicion that he's not a good player

BTN versus blinds can be weird. He could well have called a BTN raise with something like A5s, thinking its likely to be the best hand and then thought hey its christmas when 2 aces flopped.

Hand 1: Is it fine to stack off on the turn here?
Hand 3: Are we calling?

H1: I think your good here. AQ or AJ maybe or JJ+ for a range. Your bet call looks weak so I would for sure put Axs. I think your ahead of his range enough to stack off.

H2:c/f is fine being your barreling into two villains

H3:His line looks like a bigger pair, which ever one it is...I would either call and re-evaluate on the turn (pot control also) or raise to $7.50ish and re-evaluate based on his play.

H4: Im calling but I stack off with over pairs more than I should.

for hand one, this:

hand two, post flop stats are way more important here than PF ones, and we need both of villain stats to make a decision here. that said, it's a c/f.

hand three, seems like you're just egging iopq on to say SPR

hand four, bet more on turn. our equity is plummeting as every card turns. if it's 7.5 to call in a 16.75 pot, now i'm calling.

well hand 3 is like TPTK in 3b pot
wtf would you call a 3b if you weren't happy with this flop
