Hey guys,

My adventures at the lowest limit today have pushed me to tilting point and beyond, something that does not happen very often! Could anyone let me know what you would do differently, if anything, in these hands please.

Many thanks
NWF

p.s. Sorry about the lengthy post!

        1st hand you should fold turn or river against this villain. He's too tight to be making a play here.

        2nd hand just bet/bet/bet and get it in as soon as possible. Cooler in the end but I don't like your play.

        3rd hand bet turn for sure and probably not folding to a raise (call raise, call river).

        Hand 1: Should probably fold vs this Villain, but I can't probably do it either.

        Hand 2: Cooler. I'd x/r and GII. OTT.

        Hand 3: Cooler. I'd bet 75% pot OTT, and when V leads river I'm calling.

        Hand1 smells like KQ or 88. what do u think is he raising on turn that he is behind? Ak? He probably 3bets pre. Flushes? U are blocking and he would probably c/r on flop instead of turn. KJ, K10? Maybe yes. But actually all these value hands 88, kq, kj k10 ak are in my 3bet arsenal in blind battle, except vs nits.
        *note: villain flats KQ in bob, x/r turn nuts

        Hand2 ist defenetly bet bet bet. why do u donk river, but do not bet turn? U x/c turn and d/c river. U obv didnt think about ur line while playing. (Happened to me xxx times too. Dont worry). In the end u got it in with ur line but u gave him to possibility to checkback turn his Jx hands. Image he checksback turn and river pairs. U bet 3/4 and he folds KJ QJ J10. U are loosing a lot of value he would pay with his draws. Be the aggressor. Do not give him the lead. Ok he flops the nuts with AJs. In other szenarios he is almost always behind your value betting range. Thats why AJs should actually be in villains sqzing range.

        Too tired for hand3 gotta sleep, maybr tomorow. But ugly spot xddd
        Do not tilt analyse these hands. Write it down on small papers and put them next to ur keyboard. It helps to remember when find yourself in these spots again

        Good night

        Too much FPS stop xing the turn passively and not x-raising...really tho the lines that you do x the turn aren't that great, mainly because 2nl/micro villains will be making more calling mistakes then betting mistakes.

        You have to have a "legit reason" to x the turn and that that line has to be more +EV then just betting/going for default lines which are more profitable... Like if you are exploiting your opp. somehow w/a turn x to gain the maximum.

        H2: X-raise GII or maybe find a sick hero-fold if you get 3-bet lol (timing tells idk)
        H3: Bet the turn, so much worse can call we have top 2 we can get a lot of value from worse. If we get x-raised we can re-evaluate, im betting all 3 streets here for sure, just go bet, bet, bet entire way IP most +EV line.
