Here's a couple hand examples.......without researching spots and such, answer to yourself honestly what you would do against these players going forward.
Things like:
- should I bluff this person more, or less?
- should a value bet this person light more, or less?
- what other exploits can I make against this V?
This only works if you read the scenarios and honestly tell yourself what you changes you will make to adjust to each V separately.
Villian 1:
2/5, 500 effective
V: on BTN raises to $15
H: BB (hand doesn't matter) calls $15
Pot: $32
Flop: Ks 7h 2c
Hero: checks
V: bets $10
Hero: c/r to $50
V: calls
Rest of hand plays out (doesn't matter how) and you see that V called your c/r with Td9d
How would you adjust to this villian?
Villain 2:
2/5 500 effective
V2: raises to $15 in CO
Hero: calls $15 in BB
Pot: $32
Flop: jh 7d 2c
Hero: checks
V2: bets $10
Hero: raises to $50
V2: calls
Hand plays out. And you see that V has 3d3s and called your flop c/r.
How would you adjust to this villian?
Feel free to share what exploitative changes you would make against these Villains.
Sorry but your hypotheticals here are a little silly. You intentionally are making both situations extremely dry boards. Them using a very weird flop raise. Only two of you in the hand. No 3 bets.
I doubt you'll encounter these players anywhere. You could have just asked how to dealw ith people calling flops with nothing. The answer to that is you are ahead and they have nothing to bet and get them to call.
Poker is very easy. Bet when you're ahead and fold when you're way behind.
