    Default A few 3/6 hands

    BB ($814.30)
    UTG ($482.90)
    MP ($139.55)
    CO ($521.25)
    Hero ($602.75)
    SB ($343)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 6, 8.
    UTG calls $6, 1 fold, CO calls $6, Hero calls $6, 1 fold, BB checks.

    Flop: ($27) 7, J, 5 (4 players)

    BB checks, UTG checks, CO checks, Hero bets $24, BB calls $24, UTG folds, CO folds.

    River: ($75) 7 (2 players)
    BB bets $54, Hero raises to??

    $150 for value? Anyone like to raise flop? I've noticed a lot of people (especially first to act in a multiway) won't respect a flop bet by the button if it's checked to, and I've gotten re-raised a few times this way.
    Do you call a push here?
    If A diamond hits, do you raise?



    Hand 2


    MP ($576)
    Button ($99.40)
    SB ($374.25)
    Hero ($835.50)
    UTG ($527.10)

    3 folds, SB completes, Hero checks.

    Flop: ($12) 5, 6, 3 (2 players)
    SB bets $12, Hero raises to $36, SB calls $24.

    Turn: ($84) A (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks.

    River: ($84) 2 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets ??


    $80? I did check turn, could look bluffy. Do you like turn check?



    Hand 3

    CO ($601)
    Button ($615.95)
    SB ($81.10)
    BB ($710.20)
    Hero ($875.50)
    MP ($479.35)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with 2, 2.
    Hero raises to $18, 2 folds, Button calls $18, SB calls $15, 1 fold.

    Flop: ($60) T, 8, 2 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $36, Button raises to $80, SB folds, Hero calls $44.

    Turn: ($220) Q (2 players)
    Hero bets $102, Button folds.

    Final Pot: $220


    Often when re-raised on the flop with a set I go for a turn C/R, but the Q made the board too draw-heavy and I decided to lead
    Should I have re-raised the flop? At 200NL and below I'm used to people dumping hands pretty easily if I re-raised that spot -- at this stake is it more likely for ppl to be re-raising draws, top pair, etc. ? Does my line look like a monster to a higher stake player? Now that I think about it, just calling the flop raise then leading turn looks suspicious.



    Hand 4

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB ($209)

    Played OK? Should I have lead the flop?




    Hand 5

    Final Pot: $60

    Reads: Lots of family pots at this table, limps/small raises

    Fold OK? Maybe he is raising with a good draw? Top pair, but garbage kicker and I don't want to pay to see it to the river...

    If you call, what's the plan?

    3- why not reraise flop
    4- i lead turn and push river, but as played might as well check raise turn. i hate all streets here actually. every single one.

    what's wrong with flat call of flop min-bet? You prefer a semi-bluff? I mean, obv. we don't want to be chasing j-high flushes... but

    5-std
    PF seems to be a fold unless opps are total donks.

    the j high flush thing, might as well semibluff after he makes that retarded small bet

    the q7o hand is a fold preflop, good call zen, i skipped over pre when i didnt see 'hero calls' or something

    hand 1- raise pf bet flop. turn is good as played. raise river to 215

    hand 2- id call flop usually but raising is def ok. turn bet/check r both fine id prolly bet to be honest. bet 65 on river as played

    hand 3- lead 45+, 3bet to a committing amount

    hand 4- folding preflop is perfectly fine here tho if other players in pot are bad a call is probably better.

    id lead flop for 28 with the intention of 3betting

    as played id lead turn for 40. as played again id raise turn to 175

    id probably bet/fold 150 on river as played

    hand 5- def raise/fold preflop. as played flop seems fine as is check/calling.
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum

    All the good players already said it. Raise river more than pot on hand 1.

    Hand 1 -- button raise is usually goot but I had been getting 3 bet so much at the table I decided to limp sometimes to combat it. I raised river to $120 and got called byAce 5 . I woulda folded in his spot, I don't see how he calls after I bet turn and re-raise river.

    Hand 2 I bet $60 and got called

    Hand 3 most people seem to fold when I re-raise their reraise on a flop like this, I guess sometimes people don't have a hand because I have to bet something here

    Hand 4

    I guess this is often a fold but cheap to see a multiway I often call just to look for yahtzee from someone who didnt raise properly, I guess you hate all the streets gabe but the guy showed up with absolutely nothing... I got the max...

    Hand 5

    yeah this shoulda been a fold pf...


    Sidenote I have noticed a lot more flop c/r and re-raises with air then ever before...
