    Default Bunches of hands from October

    There are going to be a ton of hands in here so thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer about any of them.

    Hand 1

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    CO ($10)
    Button ($8)
    SB ($27.73)
    BB ($10)
    UTG ($13.76)
    UTG+1 ($4.27)
    Hero (MP1) ($10.77)
    MP2 ($17.18)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K, Q
    UTG calls $0.10, 1 fold, Hero bets $0.50, 2 folds, Button calls $0.50, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.40

    I suppose opening this is semi-questionable but w/e

    Flop: ($1.65) 7, 4, Q (3 players)
    UTG bets $0.20, Hero raises to $1, Button calls $1, 1 fold

    Limper donks so I raise my TP given that his range is hella weak. Guy who flats is a little worrisome but he is also extremely loose if I remember so he probably has a good amount of weaker Qs and FDs in his range besides sets.

    Turn: ($3.85) 10 (2 players)
    Hero bets $2.50, Button raises to $6.50 (All-In)

    Gives 89s a gut shot now, he's obv shoving sets. Could have QT for two pair and I'm not sure about him shoving FDs. I am getting 3:1 odds so I don't need to be good very often but I suppose this could be a sigh/fold spot. Against a tight player I'd probably check the turn some but against this guy I think barreling is okay.

    Total pot: $8.85

    Hand 2
    Not really that interesting, flatting pre is better than shoving I'm more curious what line the way the board runs out if I had flatted. Possibly c/c down? Or get it in on the flop or turn. I'm not totally sure but I think this cooler probably just plays itself regardless of the street the money goes in.
    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (CO) ($11.15)
    Button ($9.79)
    SB ($4.77)
    BB ($3.20)
    UTG ($11.55)
    UTG+1 ($2.79)
    MP1 ($17.07)
    MP2 ($11.30)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with K, K
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.10, MP1 bets $0.45, 1 fold, Hero raises to $1.20, 4 folds, MP1 raises to $3.85, Hero raises to $11.15 (All-In), MP1 calls $7.30

    Flop: ($22.55) 7, 4, 6 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Turn: ($22.55) 10 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: ($22.55) 7 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Total pot: $22.55

    Hand 3
    Pretty aggro dynamic between us. He's been playing back at me a lot and is running about 22/18 with a 8% 3b.
    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($5.48)
    Hero (BB) ($7.29)
    UTG ($5)
    MP ($6.07)
    Button ($5.48)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with K, A
    1 fold, MP bets $0.17, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.60, MP calls $0.43

    I think I got a little confused with my 3b sizing moving down from 10NL This should be like .80

    Flop: ($1.22) Q, K, 4 (2 players)
    Hero bets $0.65, MP raises to $3.17

    Sizing is pretty wtf. Looks like he wants to get the money in since bluffing this size seems awful. I think I probably can find a fold here 95% of the time despite our dynamic simply because of his bet sizing as gross as it may be to fold TPTK in a 3b pot to a LAGG with history.
    Total pot: $2.52

    Hand 4
    No real history at all. Vill has only been at the table for a little bit.
    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($5.88)
    BB ($5.71)
    UTG ($5.51)
    Hero (MP) ($5.27)
    Button ($4.78)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, Q
    1 fold, Hero bets $0.15, 2 folds, BB raises to $0.45

    this 3b is pretty small so I am not sure whether to take my odds IP or to just 4b and get it in vs an unknown. Thoughts?

    Total pot: $0.32

    Hand 5

    Villain is a LAGG regish guy who has been stealing a ton.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (6 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Button ($3.63)
    SB ($5.22)
    Hero (BB) ($5.07)
    UTG ($5.35)
    MP ($3.61)
    CO ($5)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, K
    4 folds, SB bets $0.15, Hero calls $0.10

    Flat because I dominate a ton of his range.

    Flop: ($0.30) K, Q, 2 (2 players)
    SB bets $0.20, Hero calls $0.20

    Flat again since he probably barrels a lot of turns and raising just seems bad

    Turn: ($0.70) 3 (2 players)
    SB bets $0.50, Hero raises to $1.30, SB calls $0.80

    Probably not the best turn to raise. I think flatting here is better but I am unsure of what his continuing range is. I suppose 22, 33, KQ, AK since I think he shoves FDs.

    River: ($3.30) J (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $3.42 (All-In)

    Given the range i gave him on the turn this shove is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too thin and I really like his check.

    Total pot: $3.30

    Hand 6
    I feel like this is probably pretty standard.
    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($12.01)
    BB ($3.75)
    UTG ($10.63)
    MP ($34.79)
    Hero (Button) ($18.37)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, K
    2 folds, Hero bets $0.30, SB calls $0.25, 1 fold

    Flop: ($0.70) 10, 9, 8 (2 players)
    SB bets $0.50, Hero calls $0.50

    He donks into me which could really mean anything. I could see folding here but if he has a pair + straight draw or a straight or set or just naked straight draw I have overs plus a GSSD to a straight that presumably dominates him.

    Turn: ($1.70) K (2 players)
    SB bets $1.35, Hero calls $1.35

    Possibly a reverse implied odds card since it makes me call a second street but I also improve equity-wise vs straight draws and pair+SD since the K only improves already made straights.

    River: ($4.40) Q (2 players)
    SB bets $9.86 (All-In)

    Not really the card I wanted to see. I just don't see two pair ever been good here so folding seems pretty standard.

    Total pot: $4.40

    Tried to sort through the coolers for the most part I think I did okay
    [00:29] <daven> dc, why not check turn behind
    [00:30] <DC> daven

    1. DEF iso this hand/raise more on the flop/ need to be good 23% and with AQ/QT/44/77/KsJs 9s8s Js9s and all Asxs you have 28% but if you take out the Asxs then your equity plummets to about 15%...also i doubt he is shoving flushdraws here on turn rather than raising on the flop so i would fold to the raise. Barrelling is def good, in fact the texture of the baord is such that i think a Bet/bet/check (or maybe even Bet/bet/bet if he is calilng with like QJ Q9s Q8s) line is going to be way better than a Bet/check/bet.

    2. poor dc ran into AA

    3. 3b sizing is meh, probably a little bigger cause your going to be oop...yea im shoving he has JT/hearts/KJ here a lot more than QQ KQ 44

    4. i probably flat and ball out on non K or A boards, but im pretty weaktight lul so idk 4betting vs some unknown is prob fine...also hoopy said at 6m when i was sweating with him that its liek sooo Std to get QQ in pre so go for it imo i guess

    5. hate the turn raise, without that the river becomes a whole lot easier to play. but now that youve putyourself up against a virgins cornhole of a range checking behind is probably best, hes gonna be folding all flush draws/JT...he has 8 combos that you beat and 12 that beat you so go ahead and check behind.

    6. I raise/fold flop probably terribad advice but i have had good success raising random donk bets on dry boards...as for how it played out river is easiest fold ever

    H1 only way a call on the turn is even possible is if the guy is a drooler. You're dominated or he's really bad, there's no in between. cold call on flop is strong. I'd fold.

    H2 shove pf is fine. If you called, then you will have 1 psb left in your stack. you just let AK get away cheap if the case K doesn't drop on the flop. QQ+ is going no where regardless if u shove or call PF.

    H3 IDK. I woulda bet more on wet flop and expect calls from QJ. going with the hand is probably a high variance play but may be +EV. What do you thing his range is on the flop given your dynamic?

    H4 pump it up. Don't be scared of taking down a 5bb pot

    H5 Were you really considering raising this flop? This hand is the same as H3 almost. Would your villain in H3 raise KJ? What does raising a blank turn accomplish? For the same reasoning you don't raise the flop you should also just call the turn. As played, bet on river is too big imo. You've represented a big hand, now he may consider folding top pair to your jam. Maybe $1.50

    H6 Thin call on flop. Reconsider folding here unless you've got a read this guy cbets a lot and gives up on turn. Fold river.

    i'll take a shot
    hand 1:
    played fine now fold?
    hand 2: standard
    hand 3: seems like a fold
    hand 4: 4-bet/get it in
    hand 5: call/call/call, bet the river if he checks
    hand 6: I probably play this the same way but I wonder if folding the flop is best. seems weak but when the board is this coordinated obviously Jx is a huge part of his range and we end up in retarded spots like this a lot.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.
