Hand #1
V is 69/4/2.8, only 50 hands, but already seems to like the checkraise. Turn is a spot I'd like to check behind but should I give a free card to a flush draw?

Hand #2
Vs standard reg 14/10 2400 hands. We've played together quite a bit but don't really tangle all that much. Never really have seen him play like this, it kinda threw me off...

Hand #3
Another hand played wierd by a reg 13/5/2% 3bet 5200 hands. The only possible hands I can put him on are JJ or AK with JJ being more likely. I've never seen this guy play like this either. Would he play AA like this or KK??

I bet this turn, I might have 3bet the flop against this villain.

they always have it in 2

that, or I run bad

Hand 3 2% range this flop against your hand in pokerstove. Also note where he's 3betting from.

hand 1: i bet turn hard, like 40, also might repop flop but i dont mind just calling in position.

hand 2: preety gross, i guess he has draws alot so i call though im not happy about it.

hand 3: probs just fold, though his flop bet is suspicious.

1. 3 bet flop. Not adverse to stacking it all off here, but not fist pumping

2. Trivial call IMO.

3. Mucks as he beats nothing unless your opponent will 3bet AK oop in which case call.

Ok, here's more of hand 1. Ya in hindsight probably shoulda just 3bet the flop and got it in. Do you just pay off now? Is there a hand I beat that he would check minraise twice (I think Spenda calls this getting sexied :? ).

Hand 2 I folded, ran this in pokerstove vs a range of QQ+, 77, 88, suited aces AQ, AJ, and sc 78, 89, 9Td, 56d and I was a 60/40 dog. Is this range too narrow, too wide?

Hand 3 I folded - I ran a range in pokerstove Spenda and I'm like 70+% dog. But what or why would he play this way? The only hands I call w/are JJ and maybe AA. Isn't he just blowing me off hands?

Also, miffed what do you put him on in hand 2 to make it a trivial call? Just an overpair trying to fold out AA, KK exactly like I folded? Isn't it similar to hand 3...all I beat is a bluff?

how is hand 3 at all similiar to hand 2? in hand 2 theres a shit load of draws he could have plus hands like 99-qq. in hand 3 hes repping only aa and kk so his range is far tighter, compared to hand 2 where sb's range is far wider than just trips.

You're right, and I didn't mean to say the hands are that similar. I mean the situation is similar, in that all I beat is a bluff. I guess my question is how is calling around 80bb's trivial when at best I'm like a 60/65% favorite and at worst I'm like 90% dog?
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate any thoughts but I like to hear the why's, and then I question to make sure I understand...not just "ovious call".
