Hi All,

Apologies if these are really simple spots, but I'm not savvy enough with PT4 or any simulation tools to be able to gage whether these are standard or poor plays here.

If anyone wouldnt mind just inputting what you think the +EV decision in these spots would be, that would appreciated.

Hand 1:

I have no HH with these players, so no HUD stats etc. Is a fold here correct with the open raiser left behind?

Hand 2:

Replaying this one back it feels so nitty, but I'm not sure flatting the raise is correct, or is it? I'm edging more to a call on the turn, but genuinly dont know if a push here is better. Again, apologies if this is super basic.

Player in question is 51/31/0 over 30 hands.

Hand 3:


Again, no HH with this player and its a bomb pot. Literally no clue, but assuming a fold is too tight.

Hand 4:


With this one I just think I played it post flop so poorly. I think I need to bet flop almost 100% time, which would obviously make the turn bet much easier. Should I even be folding?

I have 400 hands on the player (26/16/7).

I'd appreciate any input all!

Cheers JP

Hand 4 must be an easy call on the turn w the second nuts, with a plan to call river if the board doesn't pair. How often does villain have 64 in his range? About 1.5% of his range (PPT 3%-12%).

I don't have a solver now either, but the rest seem well played. Hand 2 can CBet only bc the IP caller is assumed to be looser GTO range, otherwise only ~20% CBet at 3/4 pot. I'd say 50% cbet against this guy(or 20% value with 3/4 p bet) and since you have top 2 pr + 9.5% of the time with a 25% range, this is a cbet. However, why are you cbetting half pot? This seems like a mistake against a loose player, who can call with a nut gutter and pair or BDFD quite easily.

Someone with a solver can confirm. I am now debating monker vs the cheaper Simple Omaha right now, because I like the UI of it and I only need a year to use it.

I also don't own a solver and I also like them all but hand 4. There aren't many straights in villain's range. Basically what BionicCurtain said.

Cheers mate, appreciate you taking the time to come back to me on this one. Happy I'm not too out of line.

Great analysis, I've clearly got a long way to go to be able to analyse at your level! Again, thanks for the reply 👍
