Hi guy,

I think I played this hand correctly. I don't see another way to play this hand. Can someone give me some input on another way I should play this hand? This is a hand at 200 HUSNG against a regular. He just lost three games straight to me and this is the fourth game we were playing. He doesn't seem like he's tilting. This is like the 4th hands of this game.

I'm curious what others think, but I feel like you have to play more aggressively on the flop or more passively on the turn in this situation. There are plenty of double barrel hands that are ahead on that turn card, so I wouldn't be raising with a weaker 2 pair hand there.

I'd also keep villain's hole cards covered when asking for feedback here, it's easy to get results oriented when giving advice if we can see their cards throughout the hand.

Flop is indifferent in GTO between call/raise (66/AT only value hands that are pure raises). Against a regular, I'd do some of both but mostly raising. Villain is already at a range advantage on this board, and removing 100% of your 2 pair combos (via flop x/r) leaves your call range capped and your x/r range probably overly strong. The fact the reg has lost 3 straight doesn't make me inclined to play this any differently. Most regs always raise their 2 pair+ and also underbluff flop on this board, so pretty easy to counter by overfolding some.

As played, never raising turn with this hand in GTO. Too much dominates us, equities can change drastically decent amt of rivers, always raising hands like this again leaves us super capped. Our turn value raises are mostly coming from A9 and 87. Raising this hand isnt a significant mistake though.

Against fish, they will just call off too light vs x/r and barrel so I would always raise flop and fistpump when they call off full stacks with A2 or KK.
