Hand range practice at 2NL
Here's another attempt at some hand ranging. I am sure there are other comments that can be made about how the hand was played and they are welcome but what I am really focusing on at the moment is the hand ranging.
I have 118 hands against him.
Here are the stats:
31/1.6/1.6
Pacific Poker - $0.02 NL - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3
Hero (MP): $2.00
MP+1: $1.90
LP: $2.06
CO: $2.00
BTN: $2.54
SB: $0.53
BB: $2.36
UTG: $2.00
UTG+1: $0.83
SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02, UTG+1 posts DB $0.03, Hero posts DB $0.03, CO posts DB $0.03
Pre Flop: ($0.12) Hero has Q J
UTG raises to $0.10, fold, Hero calls $0.08, fold, LP calls $0.10, fold, fold, fold, fold
I call the bet because QJ is in my calling range for preflop in a late position.
Villain calls 29% of preflop hands.
So that makes his preflop range 29% of the 31% of his Vpip range?
That is about a third or 10% however, because he is in a late position and there has been money in the pot I will widen that a bit to allow for set mining and I get this:
22+,A9s+,KTs+,QTs+,AJo+,KQo
Flop: ($0.40, 3 players) 8 Q J
UTG checks, Hero bets $0.28, LP calls $0.28, fold
That's nice. I make a standard c-bet for me of 2/3 pot. He calls.
According to his stats he folds 44% of the time to a flop bet. So I can leave him with a little over half of the top of his range and that should be this if I include flush and straight draws. I also take out QJs because I can see blockers for this combo in my cards and the board. So I have this:
QTs, 88, KK+, AT, AQ, KT, AJo+, JJ, A9c+, KTc+, QTc+,
The question here is would he have raised if he had trips? What should I be looking at to know this?
Turn: ($0.96, 2 players) 8
Hero bets $0.47, LP calls $0.47
I didn't get anything out of that so I make a half pot bet because I think I probably have a stronger hand at the time.
Going over things afterward I can say he didn't get a flush or straight out of that and he calls even though he doesn't have pot odds to call so now his range is this:
QTs, 88, KK+, AQ, AJ, JJ
I now doubt even more that he has trips because he really should be raising me, so I am going to make it:
QTs, KK+, AQ, AJ
River: ($1.90, 2 players) A
Hero bets $0.57, LP calls $0.57
I don't like the look of that. It could give him trip Aces, it hits his AQ, and AJ.
So I make a small bet to at least get something in the pot because I still have a strong hand. I don't want to check and miss on value but also want to see what he does. If he raises then I fold?
In retrospect I can try and look at the combos that we have here and it comes to this:
2+9+8+6 = 24 combos.
I beat 2 + 6 = 8 combos so I am behind?
