    Default some of my hands

    Ok trying to concentrate on Aces for these: 10NL 10players

    BTW, the stupid converter doesn't convert PP hands!

    i think i messed up big time here in these hands. plz help

    im MP+2 with AcKs. Villian is MP+3
    i raise 50c (5xbb). villian calls.
    flop= 7s9cQh
    i check. villian bets 50c. i call
    turn= 3s
    both check
    river = Kd
    i bet $1

    answer:
    villian called. had 10sJd straight



    next:
    ok i got AhAd at button
    CO bets 2xbb =20c. i raise 50c. UTG calls. CO calls
    flop = 9sAs7c
    both check i bet 10c (pot is 1.65). both call
    turn = 6d
    both check i bet 30c (pot is 1.95) both call
    river = 3c
    i bet 60c (pot is 2.85) both fold
    i don't care what cards i got as long as i lose the minimum and win the maximum. is there any way i could've gotten more money out of em??
    UTG was ultra-aggresser with SF25 and CO SF37. so with the ultra-agresser being non-aggressive and the CO with relative high high SF% both were just drawing? bad by me coz they could've drawn out on me with flush??


    last one:
    im SB with AsKd. villian is UTG
    i raise 50c and villian calls.
    flop = 6hAd9d
    i bet 50c. villian calls
    turn = 7c
    i bet 40c. villian AI......

    I'm no expert but here we go.
    Hand 1) I think preflop is ok(I usually open w/4xbb). On the flop I fire a c-bet of 2/3 the pot. If opp. calls I check/fold the turn to a decent bet. The river is where I have problems in situations like these. At first I liked the bet to get some value when we're good, but what happens when we're raised a small amount? Are we forced to call because of the odds? It might be a situation where you can check/call.

    Hand 2)You're flop min bet makes me want to slit my wrists, you have to force the people drawing to the flush into paying to see the next card. I make it 3/4 to a pot sized bet to go on the flop and the turn. That way when you bet for value on the river they're getting the odds to call with weaker hands then ours.

    Hand 3) I'm betting more on the turn, you realize you're betting a smaller amount then on the flop into a much larger pot. This doesn't make any sense. I'm probably folding to a push either way but it depends on stack sizes.

    edit: I'm assuming that in these hands both players are near 100bb's deep, you should really add that to your post.

    Hand 1 - C-bet this flop. Your check on the flop tells him that you missed the flop. If you are willing to call his bet you may as well lead out and put the pressure on him. If you had bet the flop you could then bet the turn. As played did he just call your bet on the river? If so, that was a bad play on HIS part.

    Hand 2 - you want to know how you could have gotten more out of this hand? The answer is to bet more. I make it $1 to go on the flop and if they both call that make it $3 to go on the turn. If they are as aggressive as you say that are they will call if they hit ANY part of that flop.

    Hand 3 - Why is your turn bet smaller than your flop bet? make it $1.50 to go on the turn. Your hand is vulnerable so you should be happy to take it down right there. As played did you call his all-in? Barring a solid read that he is ultra tight I would call here because in many cases you are ahead and even if you aren't you have 10 outs to improve to a full house.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.
