Pre: 88 is now on the boarder of raising UTG so i do it when i feel like it. Oh NOES, randomness.

BB is 23/2/ over 52 hands. Since I don't have a ton of hands I can see his range being as wide as AQs+ (though AK likely reraises), 22-qq(, as most poeple reraise kk and AA.

Against this range on this flop I have 56% equity. His continuing range would match pretty closely to his calling range, is something like 66-qq,AQs+,AKo, or it might be as narrow as AQ spades, AK spades 66,77,88+. Against that range my equity sucks about 17%.
Flop: Looking at this now i want to check, but He still folds a decent percent of his range 22-55 (30 combos) he might fold 15/16 combos of AK and 15/16 combos AQ, leaving only the drawing ones. So he fold 60 combos, out of possible of 3+1+1+6+6+6+6 + 60= or 60/89= 67%. betting 1.5 means that if i have zero equity i need him to fold 41% to show immediate profit.

Thus I bet and check it down as I am very likely crushed or his is bad.

Villain is 29/4 over 77 hands.

Pre:Std.

Flop: His preflop range is fairly narrow as 4% means a range of 99+,AQs+,AKo, against which my equity 33%. On the flop my equity increases to 43%. Now when he checks it means that I am crushed or his has over cards. The problem is that if this was a dry board I would love him to draw to overs, but since his has a few flush draws in his range I need remove them, which is why i bet slightly more than pot. I think my mistake here is that I can achieve the same results with betting 1.5.
