    Default a few line checks ($100nl)

    hand 1: no reads. HuD hasnt even overlaid stats yet. Easy fold?

    Absolute Poker
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $0.50/$1
    6 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $366.60
    UTG+1: $81.50
    CO: $27.75
    Hero: $116.15
    SB: $80.07
    BB: $90.48

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with K Q
    UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO folds, Hero raises to $5, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls.

    Flop: 7 5 6 ($11.5, 2 players)
    UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $7, UTG+1 calls.

    Turn: K ($25.5, 2 players)
    UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $16, UTG+1 calls.

    River: T ($57.5, 2 players)
    UTG+1 bets $30, Hero ???



    hand 2: Villain is 13.5/5.8/3.2 over 650 hands. Even with his nitty image, he took a similar line with JJ earlier this session. Gamboooool with short stack here?

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with A K
    UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO raises to $3, Hero raises to $10, SB raises to $26, 3 folds, Hero ???? (Villain has another $45ish behind here)


    is this a call I should be making w/ money in already? This is 5.8% of hands, but he isnt 4 betting w/ near that many hands.

    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 47.545% 39.46% 08.08% 38517174 7887655.00 { AsKh }
    Hand 1: 52.455% 44.37% 08.08% 43308844 7887655.00 { 88+, ATs+, KQs, AKo }

    more likely range:
    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 39.785% 23.66% 16.13% 10936805 7456889.50 { AsKh }
    Hand 1: 60.215% 44.09% 16.13% 20381624 7456889.50 { JJ+, AKs, AKo }




    hand 3: Villain is 84/22/3 over 120 hands. I tend to see this alot. Is this an easy call vs a 1/2 stack?

    hand 1 : with no reads i d pitch it

    in other hands i d gambool w AK but not AQ (it's close though)
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Yeah, that pretty much sums it up well. AK vs a half buyin is usually worth a gamble.

    1 and 2 are clear folds IMO. We now dont beat anything in one by river, and two is zomg standard fold on AP surely?

    3 is actually interesting. What do we know of him because i dont think this is an insta-muck versu a lot of opps.

    because AP is tight?

    ive seen him overpush preflop 5 or 6 times like this. Only one got called and he showed down ATs. Ill try to find the HH, very similar though.

    in one he needs KJ or weaker, but all the draws and stuff got there. The only one that didnt obviously was the top end of the straight. But the flush is a good bluff card.
    It looks much more like a value bet, but i can agree to a hero call here versus the corrct opponent.
    In 2 yeah, ap is quite tight (not ultra though) and without a strong read AK is rubbish to this line here.

    I think 3 is a boarderline call, probably a good call if youve seen him push over openers like this with AT. ofc, we could be getting levelled by a fish

    1 - I probably fold since just starting session. I want to call there and I will call this once I see they're not solid. Value river bluffs are in it seems. 3 to 1 is close.

    2 - I fold. Is this Mad Milk? The fact that he showed me JJ last time might make me think his range is tighter this time. JJ has to be the bottom of his range at best I think.

    3 - If he's doing this frequently I'll gamble.

    This is quite possibly the silliest statement I've ever read on this forum. Right up there with luck odds.

    Besides that, the analysis is spot-on. Fold the first two, and probably the third one, but it depends if you've seen him showdown in a pot like this one.

    i agree. AP is definitly the loosest of the bigger american freindly sites.
