1/2 - couple turn decisions

    Default 1/2 - couple turn decisions

    Hand 1)
    -no major reads on either player
    -I can only imagine SB is bad given sizing of sq pre, and btn over VERY few hands (prob 20) running like 20/10
    -on the turn I feel like jamming?

    UTG ($408.90) 204bb
    UTG+1 ($200) 100bb
    griffey24 (CO) ($440.85) 220bb
    BTN ($239) 120bb
    SB ($226.65) 113bb
    BB ($230) 115bb

    Pre-Flop: ($3, 6 players) griffey24 is CO
    2 folds, griffey24 raises to $7, BTN calls $7, SB raises to $16, 1 fold, griffey24 calls $9, BTN calls $9

    Flop: ($50, 3 players)
    SB bets $38, griffey24 calls $38, BTN calls $38

    Turn: ($164, 3 players)
    SB checks, griffey24 ??


    Hand 2)
    -I haven't played many postflop hands with villain before
    -I know the last several sessions he's been on my left and 3bet me pre (CO vs btn) several times and from my recollection I've folded all of them - so maybe he thinks I'm weak tight?
    -I have him running 22/19/7.1 AF over 1000 hands, and he has a 3b of 9. His wtsd is 23% and won at SD is 45%
    -again not much postflop dynamic, so not sure what he thinks of my barreling range etc

    I'd check 1 and fold 2. Don't know why two is tough, although I admit he very rarely has a set. Something like 45 could do this or 67dd.

    Any reasons why you'd check 1 instead of shoving? The player behind is likely weak given he didn't raise flop and the squeezer is weak given he checked the turn?

    Hand 2 - my difficulty is for the same reasons you state. He likely doesn't have a set. Wouldn't a guy with an AF of 7 just raise two pairs on this flop? I feel like his range is very heavily weighted to like 5xdd, 6xdd, 67, 77 type stuff after he shoves outright no?

    I need 37% to call, is this range not reasonable? This range I'm even assuming he plays sets/two pairs like this which I think most would raise flop.

    Put only one combo of 77 and it starts getting reasonable.

    1- Player behind you is weak, but player 1 can have a hand and play it this way. So guy behind you might fold his marginal hands and NFD maybe, but then utg will def call you if he has anything! I'd prefer jamming on a T than a K. I think it's close but C/F seems best imo.

    2- Don't like your range at all, remove some of those low SC's and suited aces, add in 33 and some sets. Fold.

    I'd check hand 1, What would you shove for value there? Kx ss? And agree that SB can easily have a hand here, maybe even a hand like 10's which he will C/C because he is scared of the K if he's bad.

    Hand 2....I think this is one of the better hands to call with here....less combos of 10 10, and your hand is essentially no different to in terms of absolute value given it's very unlikely he plays JJ-AA himself this way.
