anyone play these any different?
hand #2: what line would you take vs this 21/17/2 with 3b of 11?

lol what...the....**** is he doing

All of those QQ seem quite standard. I'd probably just 4-bet in hand 2 if y'all have any history whatsoever; otherwise calling and getting it in on a bunch of flops seems fine too.

ya the only QQ hand i could find a fold on was #2. i've been doing the back raise thing on a squeeze with QQ recently as well because i usually give back raises 0 credit and always stack off w/AQ+ sometimes lighter. but out of the last 4 times i ran into KK twice, AA once, and lost to AK once as well

alright thanks for the reality check claunchy. im losing my mind with QQ cause i've lose all those for the month without ever being ahead.

I always get these names mixed up but I am pretty sure this guy is a huge nit so I hate cold-4-betting him. Wouldn't mind flatting or even folding if he is who I think he is. I hate flatting vs. competent ppl because you have what they put you on but vs. huge nits it's ok


YAWN

More yawns and by the way these are just simple math

At first I was like "huh" why not make it $48 but meh, ****** might flat with **** like AJ and either fold when he whiffs or outflop you , both of which suck, so fine

HERE on the other hand, when the pot is already big, you make it $72 instead of shoving...his bluffing range is obv gonna be small/non-existant when you bet $72 so just shove, he never 3b/folds like TT or AQ anyway because people are always "I have to call because it looks like I am squeezing" which is kinda lol

I also think shoving looks more like 88 or something when you back-raise than if you 4-bet "normal"

this thread needs more bilbo india tr's and more shapankoh 10k posts!!!

I think its a tarp bub.

in a few weeks ill be able to provide yall with some TRs

bit of advice: we've all run bad, like really really bad. the sooner you get out of the "omg-i-cant-believe-how-bad-i-run" mentality you'll be surprised how quick you seem start running and playing better. take a few days off, play golf or hang out or go buy something with poker money or whatever you like to do and come back with a positive attitude.

play horrendously + get there anyway == profit

is this just too passive to call down? my only note was that villain had limped MP before, so was likely fishy, but we have no histroy other than that.

note that he cold called 3bets, as opposed to raise/calling.

meh, mebbe min raise river or turn? other than that I think you're ok. I doubt he's lead calling KQ or QQ for a real bet.

If you were shallower it would LDO shove.

it's fine. he could be bet/folding AQ, QQ, JJ, maybe b/calling AA

you have no reason to assume KQ, KJ could be in his cold calling range and even then he could be folding

also bilbo that hand is strictly math. really easy to calculate implied odds obv, however i'm not going to do it for you

What's so horrendous about this hand?

i'm on my one of my biggest, if not biggest downswings ever. playing pretty good though so i'm not really worried. i'm ready for friday night to be here so i can get drunk and temporarily forget about all the buyins i have to grind back

the turn,

if he was closing the action he could prob talk himself into a call, but being sandwiched in the middle when both their ranges contain aces just makes it a bad spot to be in
