#1 raise to ~$200, more combinations of trips than full houses (only QJ), lots of J10 AJ J9 JK show up here. sucks if he did have QJ though but blah w/e

#2 bet flop firstly, depends on the image of this guy, if he is laggy flip a coin, if he is nittier lean more towards call imo, dunno about this one honestly need more villain information some people think KK is good there because they think there is no way anyone can have a 6

#3 once again i feel like this is more image oriented and i also think if you feel like you have a big edge i would just lay this down, really dry board and a huge weird raise, just lay it down, and add more to your stack

Bet flop in hand 1. You'd be going all in on the turn now. As played, raise to 160.

Fold hand 2, you're up against an ace enough of the time to make this -EV. This is also probably a fold pre in most cases.

Hand 3, bet more on flop, 30-35. As played this could be AK, TT, 33, or QJ. Probably a call, but it's pretty thin.

1. I don't mind the check on the flop, with no reads on the players and the turn bet and raise, I would put SB on having a Q and UTG+1 on having AJ,KJ,TJ,9Js. As played definitely raise the turn to 160 as said above. If they 4-bet you, shove if not already all-in, and if they call and check it to you on the river, shove. If an A,K,Q,T comes on the river and they only called your 3-bet on the turn and shove on the river, cry.

2. raise flop. as played, fold river.

3. raise more on flop as said above. no reads on villain?

#1. Hero shoves.

#2. Folds pre, bets flop, calls river.

#3. Hero shoves.

/ez game.

you call on the river with 4 to a straight where an ace high turn bluff may have possibly became a straight? Do you think it's likely he could pfr with an over pair and be betting for value? or be bluffing with 2 over cards not containing an A?

Sorry,^ missed the wheel, definately right, $50 does look awfully like a value bet. and the hand is congruent with a big ace who missed a c-bet, turned a gutter and decided to bluff.

its been a big day... Im currently on a stop-over travelling overseas and iv got 2 hours to kill on my laptop, helping noobs is obviously the best use of my time.

Hand 1:

I also limp/call preflop. Stacks are big, multiway pot, position, oh yeah.

I think I bet this flop, even though we're crushing it. We're last to act after a bunch of checkers so I'd often bet air here on these boards, so I think it's also fine to bet monsters. Pocket pairs will probably continue, overcards might continue, overpairs might be setting us up for a nice check/raise, and of course someone could have a J. Stacks are deep, lets try to build up the pot so we can get them in on a later street.

As played, I think whatever we do on the turn will be taken as very strong. I might just call in order to try and suck some more money outta SB. I think the pot will be big enough to get stacks in on the river, even if it is checked to us and we have to overbet it. FWIW, I don't think there's anyway I don't go broke on this hand, even if SB 3bets the turn and is called by the other guy.

Hand 2:

I fold preflop; there's simply too many people yet to act behind us. If I was in LP then I'd make the call.

Action is unclear; did someone call behind us or did a blind call? Anyways, if we're last to act and it's checked to us then I'm betting 1/2 pot on my very vulnerable hand. I slowdown if called and probably attempt to get to a fairly cheap showdown UI.

As played, I might attempt a minraise on the turn (folding to a 3bet), with the thought being I *might* fold a better hand (an overpair) and should be able to showdown on the river for cheap (i.e. check behind). This might not be as good a play thanks to the fact we have a gutshut draw. I guess I don't mind the call if villain can play overcards this way, but I think we avoid this problem had we bet the flop.

Wow, what a sucky river card now that Ax just got there. There's 4-to-a-straight on board and villain doesn't seem to care, which means he probably has an A. I fold.

Hand 3:

Any reads on villain? Against typical villains, I think I just fold this. I mean, it could be the case that he has AK. But it's probably more the case that he thinks we have AK and wants a call.
