So I'm starting out here on 2+2, definitely still learning about the game, I play 5-5 live and 1/2 online, but it seems like lately ive been in a rutt, i'm either having +500-700 days or -500-700 days... I know that some of it can be attributed to my changing gears... Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, I have a habbit of calling a little too often on the flop or turn when i know i'm beat and have few outs to improve, but that's a whole different story.

I'm wondering if I played this hand properly, it was a little interesting in that, by the river, i really thought i was beat, infact, the only hand i thought I was beating/tying is my own, and that seemed less likely the the holdings I thought about, namely a set, or a backed into flush... My opponent is a calling station and loves to draw no matter what the odds... A few hands ago he chased me to the river for a flush calling PSB's the whole way and hit, I have a pretty solid image, generally when i multi table 1/2 i play TAG preflop, and more LAG post flop, but almost all of the hands i show down are quality, unless im calling when im beat, which as discussed before I have a bad habit of dong on the flop and turn....

anyawy, on with the hand:

bet the flop yourself, or if you c/r makes it to around 50. Bet 4/5 pot on the turn and shove river yourself.

betting this small is making it impossible to get it in wihtout having him shove and lets him draw cheaply.

well i wanted to get some money out of the flop, and i bet almost the pot on the turn... i bet 3/4 the pot on the river, I don't shove because i'd like AT to call me once in a while..

You bet half the pot on the turn. Flop sucks big time, you should be leading for more than $14 anyways, so that 'get money in the pot' line is weak.

Lead flop for 3/4 pot. Lead turn for 3/4 pot. Shove anything left on river.

Hmm you're right I didn't study it as close as I thought. I did bet half on the turn, i should have bet more... But I like the check raise on the flop, hoping someone will bite, although I coulda made it more expensive... And going all in on the river would have been easier with the amount of money I would have had left... I take your points

your check raise was something like 1/4 pot. i would have lead out for 20, you checkraised even less than that. spivey's line is money.

c/r on the flop is wayyyyyyyyy too small. I usually lead out on the flop for about $20, but when you c/r it please make it at least $35. Turn bet is way too small as well. If you would have bet more it would have led to an easier river decision (push the rest for value!)

Fix your bet sizing mate!
