This works well in HUNL, see here.

Post all action, don't post results.

Post hands here that you are almost certain you played correctly but just need confirmation so you can get rid of that tiny little bit of doubt in your mind. Preferably these are hands that require a simple "wp", "good line", etc. kind of reply. Leave strat discussion to a minimum or it might make this thread very confusing if it does take off. Post only complete hand histories (without results). If replies seem to show that your hand really isn't as standard as you thought it to be, you could always just post a separate strat thread.

This can be hands you lost even though you think you played correctly.

Or it can be just be confirming that your line was standard regardless of results.

The point of this thread is so that you can post super simple or super standard spots that you feel don't really require its own thread. I've personally felt so stupid to post some of the hands I had slight doubts on because they were so standard that I just ignored them, leaving the doubts still bothering me for a while. I'm sure some of you have felt this way before too.

SNG, tournament and cash hands all welcomed.

go go go

Alright, I'm willing to give this a shot and see if this type of thread works out.

Probably a good space for anyone who wanted to post a "standard" spot in the low contend thread. so keep those hands out of there and post them here instead.

I'll contribute!


Villain was decently aggressive, especially on the button. Haven't seen much else of him though. His Turn Aggression freq. was 50% btw. He's seen me 3betting more than AA in this session.

Flop is very standard I guess. Turn is an easy call? He's repping a very narrow range on the turn, and I've still got plenty of equity against 75**.

good idea jd, and nh to MarbleArch

MA looks good for a turn shove. Vs a very agro opponent I can see a c/r on the turn.

Hero ??

Villian is 31/22 reg with agg of 5

Think its a pretty std pot, but just wanted to double check.

I am raising preflop, our hand is too strong to limp imo and limpers are weak in general, so cbets take it down a lot.

I like your flop raise size given villains aggroness.
On the turn I am debating a c/r, given that villain is so aggro and T98x is not the biggest part of his range.
I think I would check the turn to let him hang himself, I dont think betting accomplishes that much.

Hmm just saw that you got J7 in your hand, was focusing too much on topset, hmm, this is really close, because now his range is heavily weighted towards wraps, one of which just got there.

And Banana could you rename the title to ***Official ...***, I the "*~*" is tilting the hell outta me.

You cant muck there imo. I would definitely call the flop raise, because there is a chance the other guy is coming along and vs 98** your equity is 45%.

I check/raise this turn. That way you will get an extra bet from broadway wraps that haven't got there and random air he decided to float you with. Bet/calling let's him play perfectly - unless he is aggro enough that a small turn bet will induce a shove from draws/worse.

Thanks for the advice, i check shoved the turn, and ran into the straight but meh. Happy with the way it was played.

UL, I definitely think it was the right play and you were obviously ahead.

idk I've seen too many stupid things in 3bet pots HU to fold a nfd and probable set outs.
what is player like?

i'm okey with shove here vs 34bb stack, but i might be wrong as allways. i'd def ship it in a HU vs shortstack.
hand 2: its close i think, at first glance i thought getting it in on a such a board with top two is horrible, but we got gutter with our top two, it's like minimum 9 clean outs+ 2 BDFD, so we are 42% dog vs naked straight and we flipping vs bottom set, i think i'd ship that
hand 3 is meh... i dont know... his cheking back all the hands that has any show down value on the river, what kind of hands is it make sense for him to turn in to a bluff? maybe 69 or 56

Unless he calls his draws and is not a bit ******ed I shove all day long... So many draws out there, u have the best or/and the best draw here often...

villain is passive and fishy 55/5/1.8 af (1.7 turn

He'd have to be really nitty and face-up post-flop for me to not just ship one of the best turn cards for you. Don't think he'd play a set or 2 pair like this, and he's not going to be calling the flop with a 2 very often. He could easily be bluffing or trying to set the price on the turn with a draw.

There is just way too may hands to respond here. Not all plays are standard wp etc, and any reasonable response takes a bunch of time.

maybe a :TAG: idea would be better i:e tagging your titles

You aren't doing it right. Look below for examples of good and bad hands to post.



This is a great hand to post, and exactly what we are looking for here. A complete hand history, and the question "I played this whole hand right, didn't I?". People can give a quick yes/no and if no suggest an alternate line.




This is not a great post. It's not that it isn't worthy of discussion, but it isn't what we are looking for here. There is a decision point in this hand, as posted ; "How do I play this hand from here?" is not the question we are trying to address itt. Responses get too invovled and the thread will turn into a cluster**** debate.

See the HUNL thread for examples of the TYPE OF HAND to post.

2+2 I like the first, the second might be a bit spewy against a lot of opponents but fine against some - depends on his donkbetting range and frequency.
