A few hands at 10NL
I'm pretty shocking at cash but I'm trying hard to learn. I've read Sklansky and Miller's NLHE TAP a few times and I'm hitting the micro games on Cake.
Play is extremely passive on Cake. If there is a raise PF, there is very seldom a 3-bet. I've limped the odd speculative hand from an EP or MP. Is this ok if no one raises, or there is the odd raise PF?
There are no HUDS on Cake, so I have to remember all the details of the opponents from my memory, so sorry is the reads aren't all there. I know I should jot down the hand # while I play and make some notes. I'm going to do that from now on.
Ok, here are some hands ... feel free to comment on one or several. Thanks.
Hand 1
This was the first hand at this table, so no reads. I have no idea what the turn bet means. I'm probably quite useless at estimate cash hand ranges but here's a shot... JJ-77,ATs,A8s,KTs,K8s,QTs,Q8s,J8s+,T7s+,97s+,86s+,ATo ,A8o,KTo,K8o,QTo,Q8o,J8o+,T7o+,97o+,86o+ plus FD's.
I called the turn since I figured an 8X might play this way. Should I fold the river after he shows significant strength twice?

Hand 2
Ok, first couple of hands again, so no reads yet.
I think this is bad as his range here probably includes a lot of overs that may have missed the flop and it looks like a standard c-bet. I folded since these spots tend to lose me a bunch of chips when the 4th card to a flush comes out or overs hit.

Hand 3
Villain has been overly aggressive in previous hands. Villain's PF range is ATC here. Turn betting range includes two pair, sets, if he's connected anything on the flop, club draw. His river line just looks desperate. Are the turn and river lines ok?

Hand 4
I'm not really sure what to make of the PF betting here. I'm not sure what hand limps PF and then min-reraises after a raise and a call? I'm happy enough to put the other villain on a PP, high SC's or AK/AQ.
I think the villain is often flipping up a set or 2 pair here if I call the turn, no? The betting line if just so weird though.....

Hand 5
The villain here is fairly loose and has a wide limping range from the SB. He has limped every time from this spot. Is giving a free card bad on this flop? I've given him the free card since I think he'll continue to donk off his stack with a J or if he hits the turn. Am I giving him enough rope to hang himself or me?

Hand 6
Ok, this is the first of 3 hands versus the same opponent. He seems a little loose PF, but otherwise ok.
Ok, I've flopped the nuts. I know I want to get as many chips into pot as possible, but the villain just calls the flop bet. His calling range is might be something like QQ-TT,ATs+,K9s+,QTs+,J9s+,ATo+,K9o+,QTo+,J9o+ and hands like 8d7d for the FD. The turn card is terrible and gives two pair hands with a Q a FH, leaving us drawing dead. I am worried about giving a free card to a FD, which forms part of his range, plus I'm worried about giving him implied odds to draw to it. Can anyone give advice on how to calculate what approximate bet size I need to make here to make drawing to a flush -EV? Next, do we actually want to bet the turn? And, after the flush makes it on the river, should I just save my last $3.50?

Hand 7
I don't know what the feck I'm doing here. Based on his flop play I figure he has TP, a SD or FD here. I need to grow some balls and push the turn, right?

Sometimes I make a standard raise here and sometimes I limp with TT here. I have to fold the river after I've shown aggression on all streets and he plays back?
