    Default A couple hands (NL50 6max)

    Hand1:

    Opp semi-loose aggressive, around 29/19 over 60 hands, no specific reads. The turn rr was a misclick, my intention was to raise to $8. Do we have to let this one go?

    MP ($52.19)

    Hero ($206.99)
    SB ($55.23)
    BB ($50.69)
    UTG ($49.93)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, K.
    3 folds, Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($4.25) Q, K, 5 (2 players)
    BB bets $3, Hero raises to $6, BB calls $3.

    Turn: ($16.25) 9 (2 players)
    BB bets $5, Hero raises to $15, BB raises to $25, Hero ???

    Hand2:

    Sat down this orbit, no reads on opp. Basically the only hands I'm afraid of are TT/QQ/AJ, what do you guys think?

    Hand 1 : I put him all-in.
    i recon you see A-K. though no raise pre-flop is odd. though surely hes gotta raise with q-q and k-k also? only hand you should be afraid of is 5-5 and i suppose you gotta pay that off.
    its either badly played A-K or he's trying it on with A flush draw(?).

    Hand 2: I thought insta call, though maybe not. A-J wouldn't just go all-in. other hands he could have = 10-10, Q-Q, K-K, K-Q
    hhhhhhhhhhmmm. then again maybe its A-K?
    i recon i call and punch myself for losing with A-A again.....

    i play at 25nl and you see so many odd hands you gotta call with both, maybe its different at 50nl?

    I've only played 6max at party and sunpoker, I'd say party NL50 is comparable to sun NL25, no clue how they relate to other rooms. Party NL50 has some decent regs but an unbelievable amount of complete idiots.

    hand 1: this looks like JT, maybe even JT diamonds... btw AK does call here pf sometimes, I've seen even better hands (AA/KK) just plain call pf @ 50NL

    hand 2: awh man, this sucks so much... I'd make my 4bet bigger preflop, like 20$. As played I definitely c-bet here too like 16$(though I don't know if this correct here). But now it could just be a move because he thinks your check is weak. Btw. I've seen people do this with KJ, but with no read I guess this is a fold. I always have trouble with these spots though, it could be weakness, it could be strength...

    hand 1: 55,JT,AK make up his range here really. I just dont see what villain is doing this with that we beat.

    hand 2: def. 4-bet bigger here. $16 seems good. Not c-betting this flop isnt terrible. The only hand hes calling your 4-bet w/ that you beat now is AK/JJ. I guess this lets him (semi) bluff with those hands but i dont think im folding this with that much money in the pot. youre getting 1.7:1 on a call and since you checked so he can bluff with a worse hand i call it. i think he would bet smaller with QQ/KK here, but maybe he knows this and thought this looked more bluffy.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    Hand 1: Reraise more on flop to 10 or something. Not to happy about the turncard (a 2p2'er said that if JT gives Op the nuts he always has JT...), but i think u have to stick it in as played.

    Hand 2: Make the 4-bet bigger, then shove the flop. He will call with worse.
