1. Villain is a donk who limp/calls his whole rangein our 5orbits. I have him on 38/3 and i haven`s seen a single bet by him yet.

UTG: $1298
Hero: $996
CO: $2049.50
Button: $1281
SB: $2056.50
BB: $1526.85

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with A K
UTG calls, [color:#cc0000]Hero raises to $45[/color], 4 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: 3 A 5 ($105, 2 players)
UTG checks, [color:#cc0000]Hero bets $90[/color], UTG calls.

Turn: 9 ($285, 2 players)
UTG checks, [color:#cc0000]Hero bets $225[/color], UTG calls.

River: 7 ($735, 2 players)
[color:#cc0000]UTG bets $460[/color]

At first, do you like a call here or is it 2pair too often? I am quite sure he`s not able to to bluff a missed draw here, but not 100%.


2. Same Villain, but i have seen him slowplaying a flopped monster and donking river vs some other Villain. There was no 3bet vs him yet, so i don`t know how light he´s calling them.

I used my time bank on this one and at first i wanted to fold, but the longer i was thinking about it, the more i wanted to shove.
If this would have been a normal 3bet pot i would have shoved i think, but with him calling twice. I haven`t seen a raise by him now and he was passive like hell ( i doubt he`s thinking about his image)

use the FTR output format instead of 2p2 to convert properly

against this player, Id fold 1 because bad/passive players always like to bet on the end to show they "missed their draw" when they have it. 38/3 is ridiculous so you may have to make some laydowns when they do show aggression.

Hand 2 is iffy...I think he can easily have a Q...I dont think he ever plays a set like this, and 2 pair is hard on this board, so I think he has Qx or you are good. He could also be doing this with aces or kings because thats how passive players like to play them in position. Its close I may fold I may shove depending on how my reads are working out in the session, but I dont think either is too awful. I think I fold more tho.

I don't play this high but
hand 1) he easily could have 46 or a 2pair hand. I'd fold this against passive players

in 2) I put him on AA/KK/QQ/AQ/Air - so I folde most of the time.He is 38/3 and raises UTG - on which hands do you put him ?

both hands are fold altho 1 is closer, I could see myself calling if I am not playing well.

I like folding the both.

I don't see that a bad player as he is, he would have imagination or guts to come up with these lines with anything that you would beat.

I agree with I rock on hand 2, hand one however is too often something ******ed like a weak ace or air, so i look it up.
