Re: $3.50 hyper - a couple of hands

Good I thought so.
I made a call which I thought was good and posted it in another thread. Turns out it was actually a pretty bad call (I had MP on mono board) so I'm just making sure I'm not missing anything here and bleeding money.

Re: $3.50 hyper - a couple of hands

First hand Idk if its ok but Id call.

Second check/call will be better than just jam, just you dont fold out any better hand and he might bluff on that A with 89,9T and some random floats.

3rd snapcall

Re: $3.50 hyper - a couple of hands

First:

Depends on his default opening size
If he min raises every hand and then does this just fold.
If its the first hand readless you can call or fold.
Shoving i think is the worst since he could play his AK, AA type hands just this way since its micro and some people play 1:1
I think folding would be better just so we can see whats his standard betsize on the next couple hands and adjust. If he always 4x shove K8s+, QJ, every A, pp.

Second:
Id call you with a J or A since you dont rep much imo.
Lets say you had a 7 why wouldent you bet turn then? you want to make him pay for fds and J/3. So you cant represent a 7. You wouldnt shove a 3 since you got sdvalue and want a cheap as possible showdown.
Its tough to shove A on this board since its paired and thers a flush so you could only get herocalled by a J wich isnt likely.
But your gonne get called by every 7 and flush so you cant bluff him of anything exept a J or 3 here.
Just c/f

Third:
Oesd and fd on the flop is always a snap call in hyper imo

Re: $3.50 hyper - a couple of hands

Hand 1: shove is pretty bad I think, you can flat or fold (I'd probably fold)
Hand 2: Really bad spot to bluff. Passive villain can take the flat flop, check turn line with any number of holdings...none of which are folding really. 7x that he slowplays turn with, obviously not folding. Flush draw that he played passively, obviously not folding. Jx mayyyybe you could fold out but people hate folding flopped TP. Ax that flatted flop, not folding.

The only things will be able to fold out are missed gutshots (which you beat anyway) and 3x (miniscule portion of his range compared to the above, esp given that he flatted a 3bet).

Like someone else said c/c is an option here IF you have reads that 1) he is floaty and 2) he bluffs missed draws with a high frequency. But in the absence of good reads c/f is far and away the best option.

Hand 3: snapcall
If you want a quick way to estimate your equity on the flop, there's the rule of 4: count your outs and multiply by 4. Here you have 9 flush outs and 6 more straight outs. 15 * 4 is a whopping 60% versus AK (remember it's an estimate, the actual number is 57%).

If you apply the same rule to the 3flush hand you posted in the other topic, it's pretty easy to see that even a random flush draw is flipping with you as long as it has an over to your pair of 7s.

Re: $3.50 hyper - a couple of hands

1. First time he's doing this? I'd probably fold > shove > call.

2. He's never folding an A, rarely folding a J i guess. I don't like this spot to bluff tbh. If you bet I hate the riversizing. If he's on a draw he will fold to a much smaller bet. No need to shove.

3. snapcall.
