AK - 3bet pot 1/2 AK - 3bet pot 1/2

Villain seems to be a TAGish reg. Nothing really notable on him. He bought in for 300 a little while ago and has chipped up with no notable hands.

Hero has roughly 350 and villain covers.

Villain ups to 7 UTG+2. 1 call and hero makes it 25 with AKo, folds to V who calls, other caller folds.

Flop J97r $60
V checks, hero $40, V calls

Turn $140
J97 8
Check dark, check

River $140
J978 A
V checks, Hero?

The open seems weak. Pretty sure V has opened bigger in other pots. I think pre is pretty standard maybe a bit small on the 3! Flop I think is a decent texture to stab but I'm giving up on the turn. River seems to be our bingo card. 4 straight kinda sucks. What's our river size if we're betting and how do we react to a raise or shove?

Pre is too small. Flop I think is a little big and a bad board to cbet. Turn whatever. River easy check back.

Make it 30 PF, bet only 25-30 on flop

As played, after the flop, not much else is going to happen in this hand besides checking back as we serve no benefit to betting river, because if we get raised, we are folding. Sure, his open seems weak, which really means his range is just a lot wider and we don't want to be bet calling a river raise here...best to check river and have some showdown value.

i think 3bet size is fine given you have position.
the flop is a lot better for his range than yours. you will need 2 barrels to get him off like pair + gunshot, not to mention he could have two pair and set which will not fold.

My plan on the flop is check back on the flop, fire 2 barrels(delay cbet) on turn and river, especially when river didn't complete the draw.

in play, no need to bet 40, 25 should be fine to get a free river card.

What do you think the villain's raising range is UTG+2? This determines what I do on the river. Since he checked in the dark before the turn it feels like he has some sort of pocket pair like 10s, 9s, 8s, 7s or 6s.

However once he checked the river it feels more like 6s, but would he raise a small pocket pair in EP?

You noted that he's a TAG so if he had the straight he wouldn't have checked the river. Could he have taken a weird line like this with QJ, KJ, or AJ? It's possible.

With all that being said I think that the river is a check back. If you bet the river you're only getting better to call.

A weak open like this in this player pool usually means a weaker hand. I'm pretty sure I've seen this guy open limp at this point and I'm guessing we can eliminate both his weakest and strongest hands that he wants to play. Probably a lot of suited connectors and suited gappers, roughly 77-TT, A2s-A9s, weaker broadways like KTo, QTo.

I'd expect him to fold a good deal of that to the 3! like a lot of the suited gappers, suited aces and weak broadways. I guess that leaves him with a lot of mid pocket pairs and suited connectors. I just can't figure what checks the turn and river that has us beat.

Probably not much but you value own yourself. What calls you when you bet this river? It's probably a slimmer range than what beats you.

Pre: $30 might be a lil better but $25 is fine.

Flop is too wet to cbet light, even heads up. There are a billion combos of gutshots, pair + gutshots and they're all gonna call you.

Turn: like it

River: kind of an annoying spot. I like bet/folding $60 to get value from a J or AQ that decided to call flop. Totally okay with checking back here.

so what the V have?

If he had anything trips or better I'm guessing hes gonna bet the river, but I think you should have just checked. The only thing he is calling you with will probably beat you, and if he raises, then you are forced to fold.

I bet (I think $60 or $70) and folded to villain's raise.

Here’s the mail I got for my problem

When did the problem start? Did you recently add or remove any hardware or software?
The details provided suggest memory corruption may occurring. This can be attributable to hardware failure (faulty RAM, for example), or a bad/buggy driver, or a driver that is not meant for the version of Windows you are using. The dumps will offer further guidance.
General guidance for dealing with bluescreens:
Consider running chkdsk on all partitions. Let chkdsk complete on each partition and see if that helps.
Also consider running SFC /SCANNOW.
It can be helpful to use Driver Verifier. To enable Driver Verifier... start->verifier.exe->OK->Create standard settings->Next->select driver names from a list->Next->sort by Provider->select all non-Microsoft drivers->Finish, and OK your way out of the dialog.
Then, reboot and use the system as you normally would, and wait for a problem. In the event that the system does not boot completely after enabling driver verifier, boot into Safe Mode and run driver verifier, and tell it to delete the changes.
Wait for a bugcheck to occur after enabling verifier as described, and then upload the dump to your SkyDrive, and provide a link.
If you boot into safe mode, do you still experience bugchecks? What about if you do a clean boot, or device clean boot?
Consider testing memory with Windows Memory Diagnostic or memtest86. Note that memory that passes tests is not necessarily good memory - it just hasn't failed a test. Consider systematically eliminating RAM from the system - run with a couple of modules for a while, and see how things go. Then try the other modules.
Other common suggestions include ensuring drivers are up to date, as well as ensuring that you're using the latest BIOS.

Well played. I'd bet/fold ~$40. You're targeting a fairly narrow range of worse pair hands like QQ and Jx. You're going to need to bet small enough for them to bluff catch. Fold to any raise. Your line screams AK. Villain would be a fool to bluff and expect a typical low stakes player to fold TPTK.

I really don't like bet small/fold river approach as our range rarely has a T. V can easily check raise this river for value or turn his sd hands into bluff. We have range disadvantages on this board.

He probably check call many 2p on the river as well.

I am not c betting on this board, it murders their calling range

I think this is a worse river to bet than a lot of others do.

True, but villain's range also rarely has Tx at this point. Villain checked three times. If villain has a straight, he should bet the river after hero checks back the turn.

Sure, villain can check-raise for value but he won't get paid. Hero should insta-muck TPTK on a 4-straight board. Again, I'd be shocked if villain turns up with Tx and it would be a terrible slowplay. Turning a hand like QJ into a bluff on the river is quite the level for low stakes. I think one out of a thousand low stakes players would try to pull it.

I think villain's current range is QQ and some KJ/QJ vs. AJ. Tx/sets should bet the river and even AJ should make a stab after hero checks back the 4-straight turn. Other two pair hands are unlikely because villain raised UTG+2 and called a 3! oop. I think there is enough information for a thin value bet.
