$100NL, couple hands...

    Default $100NL, couple hands...

    Hand 1:

    UTG+1 is 27/14/3
    CO is 24/12/4.25

    -I put UTG+1 on possibly pushing AK in this spot, cause it looks like I could be putting on a squeeze
    -CO could be joining in due to pot odds (and he only has half a stack)
    -Is this a preflop call or fold?

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $178.09
    UTG+1: $103
    CO: $52.80
    Button: $123.50
    SB: $53.40
    Hero: $95

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with
    UTG folds, UTG+1 raises to $4, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, Hero raises to $24, UTG+1 raises all-in $103, CO calls all-in $48.8, SB folds, Hero??


    Hand 2:

    villain 27/7/1.5

    -How is this line? Do I find a fold somewhere in this hand?
    -Do I fold the flop to his small raise?
    -Can I fold the turn, given my diamond outs?
    -Can I fold the river, given the pot size and the size of his bet? Its one of thoes spots where I'm pretty sure I'm beat, but I can't of have to call now, don't I?

    Hand 1 I'd probably fold. It could be the A5s play we talked about earlier, but... dare i say it, find a better spot.

    Hand 2 is a pretty easy river fold. If he's semibluffing his flushdraw he's there, he could have you outkicked, he could have you twopaired. Blockbetdariva? (But youd have to block around $35 so...)
    <Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

    Thanks for the reply Euphoricism,

    Hand 1: Should I generally be more worried about the UTG+1 push.. or the fact that after flat calling, CO suddenly feels his hand is worthy stacking off with?

    "Find a better spot".. uhoh.. let the fireworks begin =)

    Hand 2: Yah I agree that I knew I was beat.. if the last club hadn't fallen, maybe a call down woulda been better (coulda been betting with the draw) but even that draw completed.

    Hand 1 easy fold in my opinion

    Hand 2 river is obv a hand that beats you looking for value.
