Two 25nl zoom spots

Hand 1)
Villain was taggy, his 3b is awful, I call because Im pretty sure ill stack him postflop. Im floating a few flops too.

I hit gin and I decide that raising here looks super strong, so I guess calling is fine. Turn again is blank, so I decide to just call again. River, I now cant fold.

FWIW - I very rarely play hands like this, it would usually be raising the flop or turn. I decided in this spot that him being tight aggro he was likely to fire multiple barrels and I didnt want to show any strength by folding.

--------

Went for the ol' 3 barrel here, the guy was like 54/38, he has such a wide range I think I can barrel the turn here profitably. He has a bunch of hands he can fold, including a bunch of mid pairs. Plus I have equity (a clean 6 outs).

Hey m3ta, anything below 50nl belongs in the beginners circle forum.

Hand 1: Do you have actual stats on villian?

If he's "taggy" what makes you think we're ahead when he 3bets?

On flop you didn't hit gin... you hit a set, which is vulnerable on this board. Raise flop.

Without a reason to think he 3bets light I'd assume he's got a strong hand he can't get away from so again, raise flop.

As played I'd shove turn.

He was 16/14, really TAGGY nit.

I think shoving turn (looking back is best)

At this point I dont see him folding QQ, KK, AA, or random draws he may have...

Hand 1 - seems like a fold preflop/shove turn

Hand 2 - how often does he fold to 3bets and cbets? I'd c/f turn

Why do you think this about hand 1? I mean we are getting a little better then 20;1 on setmine value plus our hand can win on it's own quite a bit. If he's so tight that we are crushed(80;20) then we can pretty happily setmine and stack him a super high% of the time. I could be wrong, just seems silly to ever fold JJ 100bb deep for this price.

I agree with hand 2. We are 3bing A9s for value here right just so we are all on the same page. Also if we are bluffing(He folds a tonnne to 3bs) then we should probably just be c/fing the flop. If he's really cally pre-flop in which case this is for value which I assume it is then we can def cbet once on a board this dry and give up most turns.

Yeah you're right with hand 1, thought he 3bet bigger.

Yes its a 3b for value vs this opponent, so loose he can have a bunch on the flop and doesnt fold pre. Hence my 2 barrel (and then value river shove)
