Is a push terrible here? No reads.

I like hand 5 especially with up to 10 outs yo

I think you get him to fold a lot of his range, and even if you don't, having upwards of 20% equity is nice.

If you're taking some of these guys to value-town you might not want to be shoving so much and v-betting a bit smaller. I reserve my shoves for monsters/pure-bluffs.

hand 1: what does 3betting acomplish here. Your fold equity is really no good since villain raised to only 3bb and you are still OOP the rest of the hand. As played i think i check the turn.

hand 2: you generally dont want to play SC's OOP like this. As played c/f flop is fine but if you must raise there i like the rest of the hand. I think id be more inclined to make a 1/2 pot value bet on the river here because your only getting called by 4x and boats. A smaller v-bet lets a hand like TJ call.

hand 3: try just floating this flop and not raising it like a monkey. What made hands are you raising here? I can almost guarantee your not doing it with much. Calling the flop you catch a showdownable hand on the turn and you dont have to play such a bloated pot with a weak made hand.

hand 4: standard

hand 5: with no reads this is gross. check/fold turn mostly, i may even check the flop sometimes.

Wow, I'm very surprised, I opened a thread with all marginal plays or bluffs in it and i like every single one of them. Some of them have marginally bad decisions, but not bad enough to complain about.

Nice

The Q9s hand's river is the best definition of a two way bet i've ever seen.

thinking about it more at these stakes i def check behind river on the Q9s hand. Versus a very good hand reader with an aggro image i like a bet.

He's not looking for FE, he's killing a 70/30's range.

meh, you're right.

Ok...results:
1. He calls with an 8
2. He calls with JJ
3. I really check river and he shows TT ftw..but was debating pushing and was not too sure
4. I end up winning, one guy folded on turn the other checked river with missed flush draw
5. This was actually my friend's hand. He c/f turn. I told him to push and wanted to see if what I said made sense.

Thanks all who responded.
