Villain is a Goldstar reg but he is a looser player at this game. (He played a lot game.)

First hand at this game. I suppose that villain knows the different board texture. It is unlikely that this board hit me. In my oppinion I had a lot of fold equity.

If it wouldn't have been the very first hand then I just folded it.

What should I do in this case? Flop call and should be give up on the turn?

Keep posting i love ur threads!

Some additional info to the first hand:

In my oppinion there are a lot of player who like to overplay his first hand at this limit. Because of this shoving seems to be profitable for me.
+ I have a lot of fold equity. He will fold huge part of his range except 2 pair, drill, overpairs, and some overcards.

I was thinking excact opposite. If he's a reg then just call, and 3-bet against a fish who never folds to 3-bets.

Hand #1: I like it except the fact that you showed your hand.

Hand #2: I give up on the turn without reads. Raising the flop is a little iffy, cause this board does not hit your defending range and many people realize that. Even fish peel a flop like this with overcards or A-high, even though they realize nothing. Just sucks to put in a lot of chips early and out of position, only to fold later on.

I often barrell in these spots, but usually I just end up valuetowning myself against a fish who calls me down with J2o.
