coolers etc but good to breakeven when not running great

why the hell didnt the villian bet???

id just bet this flop everytime or even check raise it pot (i do this alot with even gutshot flushdraws when i was 3bet pre and figure a flop would of been hard for them to hit/so they now got air and im way ahead or were near flipping either not bad i just favour aggression with strong draws and this is def strong your technically slightly ahead 50.71% or something with your pair plus flushdraw even if hes got AA and a 51%favourite you are if hes got ak (i know its a small edge but its still an edge and its got fold equity (if hes the sort that can fold top pair) and more pressure that can be applied turns etc if you do play your sets similarly and hes got it in him to lay a good hand down i favour it also it just gets more money in the pot when your highly likely drawing to the nuts and a hand you wanna play big pot with/playing a bit of omahas actually made me revert back to my beginner ways where id be raising my draws when situations right and makes sense it makes it easier sometimes to get the rest in on turn when you hit turn as so few players raise there draws they wont believe you to have one i think i get paid off slightly more doing stuff like that least i dont come across many or sometimes there check turn and give you a free river) i wouldn't expect him to hold a flush draw himself too often also he could 3bet all sorts of big hands really hes got something weak or hes got a set of 99s or kings everything else your ahead of marginally so i personally just play it aggressive check/raise or just do a weird smallish donk to induce a raise then ship it all in and be happy/but then again i like playing for stacks with greater frequency and dont mind getting it in on thin margins.

On the K92dd with T9dd we are checked to as the preflop caller so we are at risk of getting check raised ourselves, as you point out villain can check raise some nut hands.
An excellent player on micro/small argued simply that villain is repping medium showdown value type hands, we should check it back. In game I bet, which if raised I think we need to continue with and we lose positional advantage but yeah we arent ever dead completely. When villain folds it is likely a hand with say 3 outs ie. a weak ace no flush draw, so the equity denial properties of this hand are not that good and we do get called mostly by better, except for some eg AQ which might just want to play check call on this flop.
We can ofc both bet and check this hand - though i think it makes a better check and gives us flushes on diamonds which is great because then we have flushes both when we check and bet the flop - can bet a flush draw with worse show down value.

lots of interesting action, want to post a few hands before getting back to sunday night tables.

Here we just got coolered imo, villain fishy but not like a total whale, can generate some folds pre and we can flop ofc.

Squeezing wide with the 46s, good board to bet on obv. 1/3 again on turn could be better because I don't think we get him off an ace right now and I think those 3rd pair hands will fold to a small bet. getting him off for eg. TJ double gutter would be great and we might force that with a bigger bet. Shoving most rivers i think

sunday is good night for pokers so back to it

Loads of flops where I'm still not sure what to do on. This one is a good one to check with K9 I think. Cards which give us a straight draw on the turn are good for him also so we will be firing into a strong range. Not hard to have a check raising range here also, but this one is a check fold.
JQ on the river all day imao, I can have JQ myself so it's not like he can just raise me all day and profit everytime. River bluff raise isnt common in any case.

its not a bad call imo because he is repping only 55,77,88,QK and maybe 78s, where QK needs to float that flop, and bet turn when checked to which people aren't always doing here, though 1/3 is a good size for it.
So he doesn't need to be bluffing that much to make this a good call.

playing on a new laptop with a crappy trackpad, usually play on imac sat at desk.
Sat with same good reg on my left on 3 tables (should have closed down and moved) he had a few good runouts which had me questioning whether I should have played differently, unfortunately cant find histories which is just a hazard of unibet. Just got to remember that if I haven't got an edge, which I certainly haven't vs a player better in skill than me and with position on me then
IF YOU CANT SPOT THE SUCKER.... YOU ARE THE SUCKER

These things I think added up to giving me a tilty feeling which I haven't had since some point last year.
however I think I will continue with the laptop as more flexible and get a separate mouse. no euro key on this one


Not too sure on this hand, villain is average reg, have been hammering him quite a bit with aggression pre and post, not really playing back. Not too standard to 3bet a reg UTG with TT but I think it will yield a higher ev because he will give due respect preflop and of course we have a strong hand that is frequently ahead on the flop when called preflop
Flop is quite a good result for TT, I cbet for some protection/value.
Turn is rather thin, we can no longer value bet here so we can either try to realise some equity and beat hands 88-99, 78s etc, or we can try to get him of a Jx hand. This guy I think is a touch weak to float with Kx on the flop but if he does call with KQ and AK then why not also a float with AT, AQ which I don't see continuing despite picking up equity and folding these out is a good result.
So without too much detailed analysis I am happy enough with this play vs this particular guy.

Another debatable one..
fish in the SB so call pre on the effective btn.
Flop is 4way but MP can still bet this flop with some frequency with vulnerable hands so I don't hate the call and I am still hoping to get in with the SB with this gutshot/backdoor, though reverse implieds ofc.
don't see a strong reason to bet turn which can more easily counterfeit a straight on the river. Got to bet river though

Another shot at NL100 as there were over 70 players there and less than 40 at NL50.
Crazy hand I opened MP, got 3bet by btn, cold 4bet by the SB, I fold, Btn jams and shows K5s vs AA, board runs out Kxxx5. That's $200 pot beat. next hand.
got to get used to this and comfortable before moving up. Need to build a training budget for NL100

Torn between river bet or check and try to see a showdown and realise equity, and a suggestion to check raise turn which would be very fine

Loads of ridiculous hands vs fish just going nuts jamming everything preflop, cant be bothered to manually convert. Kept re-buying for 50BBs, must have reloaded something like 400. mostly went to an annoying nut peddling nit whereas I was like:

50BBs deep, K8s vs K8s all in pre

100BBS deep, A9 all in vs A5 etc etc

fish won a great hand all in pre with 83s vs another nit's AK, v nice

Hand in the BB vs whale on BTN

successful isolation raise, can go bigger flop but this is ok. Want to keep bluffs in on the flop so peel the flop raise though we are vulnerable there. Turn play can shove I think since pot is now big enough for loose calls from some Ax bluffs

hand eg: villain had 3bet me from SB vs btn with 6Ts and 3 barreled on 62KQx, which while he had range advantage it is optimistic as I am pretty much having no less than top pair on the river, had KJs.

This hand we have 9T on btn
villain 3bets from the small blind.

Flop
K6T

villain checks flop, we check back.

Turn
4

villain bets normal amount, we call

River
J

villain bets normal amount, we call.

villain shows down QQ, nh
Dont like my call down (obv) but for the reason that we can check back all our top pair hands on the flop and we have some straights as well. Mis-applied the read from previous hand to this one when actually it's a very different spot where villain has a lot of better hands.

will likely play a touch more tonight, some good tables running


vs aggro fish. Preflop is a little loose vs this guy it is better to raise linear range, however we flop well and plays itself on the flop.
