Pre Flop: Hero is BTN with 7 A
3 folds, Hero raises, SB calls, 1 fold

Flop: (5 SB) Q 9 8 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: (2.5 BB) 6 (2 players)
SB bets, Hero folds



This is the hand I question the most. HU I almost always c-bet. I just didn't feel i would be getting two folds often enough and getting raised would mean surrendering my equity...

This hand is based on hand reading/texture. I realize now it's not a check behind but I took the time to convert it so I'll leave it in.

Hand 1: when you are ahead on this flop, he almost always has 10 outs. I see no reason to bet the flop, there is no value and no FE.

Hand 2 looks pretty standard to me.

On hand 3 I just bet the turn and check the river to make sure the money goes in on turn if he has KJ, or no pair one heart. It's too easy for him to value bet Qx and check the rest if you check the turn. I'm not a big fan of c/c'ing twice here.

hand 1: flop check is fine, but you should call turn imo. you could fold if you were certain you were drawing, but you only need to have the best hand a small % to make calling correct, and you will be able to check down the best hand often enough imo. I duno... its really close...

hand 2: fine

hand 3: fine

No one bets hand 2? I find that I get folds often enough or spike a 9 or a J often enough to justify a bet.

Hand 1 is fine, although I dunno about a turn call. If villain is thinking at all he's going to fire 2 barrels when he doesn't get there anyways and I think you'll end up folding best hand in an even bigger pot too often.

Hand 3 is a b b/f ch/c (on blanks) for me vs unknowns, I think you need this bet to go in on the turn.
