    Hand 1
    - I think he has a fair amount of 6x, that I'm not sure he's folding. If he had bet smaller I woulda liked it more

    Hand 2
    -yah seems standard if you float flop

    Hand 3
    -I think his turn c/c range has a lot of Jx and a lot of Tx. On a diff river I would like this more, if he's not the type to fold

    The River bet in hand 3 sure makes you uncomfortable to play against.

    Hand 1: Is actually pretty decent if he would bet 57 or 710 on river.
    Hand 2: Perfect
    Hand 3: Only good vs no fold tards who think you either have nuts or nothing and want to super level themselves into calling with worse.

    I like 1 and 2 and hate 3. In 3, if anything I'd rather bet small and call a shove over this.
    Family Cruise IMO

    this. Although I prefer a check in 2, and bet river.
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    Can offer RB deals on most sites, PM me.

    hand1- i would be very hesitant to jam it in here since it seems insane for him to not pot a straight on the turn but then to turn around and pot it when the board gets bad for him.
    hand 2- seems fine
    hand 3- really close. id say this is good, but id check back KK. definitely raise more preflop, im guessing your range is polarized to AA KK and rando stuff.
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum

    Aren't KK and AA the same hand here? Are you checking back KK here just to control your frequencies better?

    KK is one of the best hands to flat a 3bet with oop after opening utg imo.

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    Was going to say I don't like 1 n 3 too much without specific reads but I changed my mind. In 1 he is being an idiot w/ A high or other float often and you rep 8x/99 well enough, 3 is super thin but he prob raises or donks somewhere w/ a better hand more often than not

    2 is very standard.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    im changing my mind on 3, i like a check on that river. against this 'tag reg' i just dont think we win enough when called

    I'll just post my thoughts on all hands and hopefully someone better than me can provide some guidance

    Hand 1:

    Text results appended to pokerstove.txt

    8,624 games 0.251 secs 34,358 games/sec

    Board: 6d 8h 6s 9h
    Dead:

    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 67.869% 66.93% 00.94% 5772 81.00 { JJ-88, 66, AhQh, AhJh, AhTh, A9s-A8s, Ah7h, A6s, Ah5h, Ah4h, Ah3h, Ah2h, K8s, K6s, QhJh, Q8s, Q6s, J8s, J6s, T6s+, 96s+, 85s+, 75s+, 63s+, A9o-A8o, A6o, KJo+, K8o, QJo, T9o, 97o+, 87o, 75o+, 65o }
    Hand 1: 32.131% 31.19% 00.94% 2690 81.00 { KhTh }


    ---

    EV = equity(winnings) - hisequity(loss)
    = .32(44.40) - .68(18)
    = 14.21 - 12.24
    = + 1.97

    so our turn call is fine.

    So I guess he barrels the river w/100% of wat he led the flop with, which is ~23% of hands.

    He calls our ship with 8x, 6x and staights, which is aobut 15% of hands.


    Dead:

    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 100.000% 100.00% 00.00% 96 0.00 { 99-88, 66, A8s, A6s, K8s, K6s, Q8s, Q6s, J8s, J6s, T8s-T6s, 98s, 96s, 85s+, 75s+, 63s+, A8o, A6o, K8o, 98o, 87o, 75o+, 65o }
    Hand 1: 00.000% 00.00% 00.00% 0 0.00 { KhTh }


    ---

    EV = FE(amount we win) + equity(1-F)amount we win - (1-FE)(1-equity)(amount we lose)
    = .35(124.80) + 0(.65)(124.80) - (.65)(1)(169)
    = 43.68 + 0 - 109.85
    = -66.17

    erm... this result seems wrong, but i'm not sure where I made a mistake... anyone?

    Hand 2

    IMO our range is pretty strong when we call his c/r, pretty hard for him to put us on a float here, so I like betting to fold out his air/gutters.

    Hand 3

    looks pretty kool to me.

    after reading otehr responses, hand 3 confuses me.

    Are we valuebetting or bluffing?
  14. #14
    We are valuebetting.

    lolz, I thought we were bluffing to fold out Jx, repping Tx

    I really cant see the value here.

    I need to get better at 2. I feel like I almost always get led into again on the turn after calling raises. What do you do if he bets? Just fold?
    Hand 3 is nuts, I wouldnt do that on that river.
    1 Is sick, looks like a great play
  17. #17
    I like hand 1 and 2.

    Hand 3 the river is a check.
