    Default Some HH:s -- Extracting value + plugging a leak?

    Hand #1:
    No real reads, putting UTG+1 on an overpair and UTG on flushdraw. Go for a check-raise on the river, like I missed a draw?

    hand 1: well played. you'll probably make more money having them make crying calls then try to check raise a bluff, which might not come....oh and add UTG+1 to your fish list.

    hand 2: nah i think that's fine. they could easily have an ace with a crappier kicker.

    hand 3: waiting for the turn and CRing the flop is close for this hand...

    Ah, but I don't know if I have any space left in that fish-tank of a buddy list

    Anyway, is hand 3 better played with a check in hope of raising?

    One line to take on hand three is to c/r any card that is not a spade. I would raise the flop to chase out the Ace of spades. Not raising my let him slip in cheap with a backdoor flush draw. Plus if you raise the flop then check the turn....any player with a lower king will bet thinking you are on a draw....so you might be able to c/r again. I would have played it the same though....raise the flop lead the turn.

    I like hand 3 as played. Missing bets sucks.
