My only read on BB is that BB plays wide and raises all kind of hands...

As played, am I out of line on the turn, and what about the river?

Thanks.

Check call turn, hoping you're good one way or the other.... maybe both of BB is just throwing chips around.

Just my 2 cents.

i raise flop as i expect to be ahead here most of the time, especially against a lag.

as played, turn raise is fine. definitely raising river.

I'd flat the turn. If he's being here after flop and 3bet preflop, it's very likely he has you beat on one side, but you should be in decent shape. Did he lead or check river? If he checked, definitely bet. If he bet, I'd lean towards raising. There's some risk of being quartered, but honestly against a guy playing as loose as he is (64/38/19), I'm inclined to raise - might end up quartering him, or he could do something funky.

I'm probably just flat calling the turn, but I don't think a raise is terrible. Seems like a pretty easy raise on the river...he would need to have a very specific four card hand for you to be losing money.

I like raising the flop. Turn raise isn't awful but when that 3rd bet goes in hero is normally getting free-rolled. Would recommend leading the river.

This hand is the most important of the three i posted, imho.

I think it shows that aggression is needed and appropriate, to get the value we seek from every precious chip in our stack.

Thank you for responding to my hands, monikrazy.

Question:

I don't want this one to be about results. But, I did lead river.

Is there any way to bet/fold this river?
That 3bet on the turn is an alarm bell, and villain needs a very narrow 4 card combo to scoop.

Can you ever bet/fold here?

Well, not against this villain, but what about a good reg grinder. Any chance to bet/fold against a known tight reg?

Thanks.

I don't quite understand...you mean villain checked the river, you bet, and he raised? I think bet/call is fine in that case. Do NOT fold the river!

Ahh yes. Forgot I was in position. Yes villain bet river, I raised and got reraised.

Even so, too many villains will bet out a set+junklow

IDK maybe I should just call and be happy I improved on river.

Now that you pointed this out, this would be a call on the river versus a reg, obviously.

Raising a LAG here might be +EV versus calling, but probably close.

Thanks!

i don't think raising river vs a lag is close at all.

a guy with his stats, especially "defending" his bb will be betting so many hands OTR. you're rarely gonna be scooped, a lot of the time chopping, a lot of time quartering him, and also going to be scooping him more than you think.

Thanks! I like this hand, I like how I played it, versus this particular player.

Reg=call river we dont have a nut.
Lag=raise river for value, we are near nutted.

Even considering folding the river is horrible. You're only getting scooped by two hands - A2T6 and A2JT. There are SO many other hands that people will raise here.

Never doin anything apart from bet/call if checked to or raise/call if he bets. Whatever the players tendencies reg or random.

Turn raise is ok as you're often losing both ways and sometimes you have outs for scooping or 75%.

But anyway how why are ppl talking about leading river when villain is first to act??? Checking behind would be just a tad nitty.

Also you're categorising a reg cannot be a lag. Not the case. And you will get good lag regs and bad lag regs. Most of em bad right enough.
