Hey Guys,

feel too nitty myself in these spots against aggro fishes who are making moves all the time and dont wanna be outdrawn w my nuts. Due to this I lose a lot of value playing aggressively and making folds with my nut hands which are vulnerable as well.


1. Villain is 40/7/2,2, AFQ 40%, guy is donking a lot, making moves constantly. Do I want to play fast here or let him hang himself with calling? Shove is out of question? What should be my bet size on the flop if reraising?

CO: $19.53
BTN: $26.39
SB: $38.46
Hero (BB): $27.94
UTG: $27.83

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is BB with K A
3 folds, SB calls $0.15, Hero raises to $0.75, SB raises to $2.25, Hero calls $1.50

Flop: ($4.50) T Q J (2 players)
SB bets $3.36, Hero ?



2. Huge fish, 64/3/3,6 AFQ: 36%. He's mainly focused on river play with his aggressive moves. He's slowplaying monsters on the most scarier boards and overbetting river. Overbetting river w pure air also. But flop, turn he plays passively, on flop donking small occassionally. On turn never saw him making any moves. On turn I've got a very strong hand, only 56 is beating me. I've got the nut FD, but dont want to see the river paired or w any hearts. What should be my bet size here?

id make it like 8 or 9 on hand 1, makes for an easy shove on the turn and like a std raise on hand 2 to like 6-7

1st one easy raise, his PFR is low and this board hit its 3bet range pretty hard : no reason to slowplay. pot size raise is ~ $14, i'd make it $10 and shove the turn is he calls.

2nd one I don't mind a call

Actually I shoved in hand1 and made 10 in hand 2. Both folded.
In the first hand do i want to shove on any turn card after reraising to 8 or 9? Same question at hand 2.

1st hand: By flatting you keep in weak pairs and top pairs, but at the same time, any 9 or K could kill your action (or give more action for that matter). By raising you get value from (TPTK?), Sets, lower straights, two pair hands.
If you're gonna have to raise the turn, your hand will look even stronger.

So idk, but I would most likely raise the flop.

What does everybody else think?

2nd hand: Just make it like $9 to set up for a potsize bet on the river.

In the first hand i would have shoved preflop. But im a noob. Hand 2 i dont mind a call to implie a bet from him on the turn, which i would raise bigtime.
