    Start by posting a hand which was played like a monkey on acid.

    weaktight | Hand Poll | KQo - $0.05/$0.10 No Limit Holdem

    Guy I'm playing is a complete unknown.

    Pre flop I think is ok, I don't know much about his range but I feel a 3 bet vs an unknown won't serve much purpose and a fold is too weak.

    On the flop all I have is a gutshot - problem is I don't plan the hand through I just check to him without thinking. He cbet's as expected and I decided to call and barrel a spade,K,Q,T turn - really though it's better to fold vs this guy .

    I bet the turn for no reason - and the river is very spewy FPS.

    Point of this - I need to be planning the hand from the start rather than making it up as I go along.

    hey good luck dood. haven't seen you on the tables since you stalked me that day.......moved up at the end of march and hoping to stay here .Hit me up for a sweat one night but will have to be next week as working long hours this week.
    Trouble with calling pre is that you are giving up the initiative in the hand, if you hit and donk liable to get raised.Found since moving to 25 that flatting in the blinds you get crucified on later streets. Will he fold to a 3bet. If he doesn't he's quite likely to then fold to the cbet as he's going to be putting you on big pairs , big aces,sets, possibly big flush/straight draws (depending on the board) on the flop, if you flat then he'll probably be thinking weak aces , broadways etc. if he doesn't fold to the cbet then you can shut down unless you have loads of equity.
