OK, the goal of this op will be to get me to be a regular 400NL player instead of 100/200NL. I play 6max on stars.

I'll be posting hands and getting some coaching and advice from Rav. I'll be posting a lot of "mundane" hands as I am looking to really play small and medium pots well, as I multi table and tend to make mistakes in them or mis opportunities.

My red line is awwwwful and I probably don't 3bet enough. Lately its 22/17 with 5% 3bet. I think I end up flatting a lot with hands like JJ, QQ, AK where others don't. I'm definitely 3betting a lot of junky SC's along with QQ+ AK just not always QQ and AK, and of course sometimes I feel its right to ship JJ or 1010.


Any advice is appreciated!

Villain is a nitty player, 15/12 with 2.2% 3bet. Opener is a std TAG.

I just feel like if I shove here, I'm getting it in vs a set or the nut draw... so I folded, shockingly?

Hero ??


This is vs a "reg" (he is decent but i dont see him around a lot) who I just oversetted on another table. Anyone doing anything out of the ordinary because of the hand he just played, ala leading turn? anyone check river? lol, not really sure how to play this spot

Flop sizing good? Player had $132 left. Shove any turns? I mean if he flats he has to have like 66 or some prayer flush draw he for some reason didn't ship... i feel like i might be able to profitablly ship a blank turn as crazy as it sounds, with $120 in pot and 98 behind for him on turn. We'd have 12% equity most likely if called.

Hand 4


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Hero (MP) ($108.95)
CO ($20)
Button ($100)
SB ($21.95)
BB ($113.50)
UTG ($86.75)

Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, A
1 fold, Hero bets $3, 3 folds, BB calls $2

BB bets $2.50, Hero raises to $8, BB calls $5.50

BB bets $12.50, Hero calls $12.50

River: ($47.50) 6 (2 players)
BB bets $10, Hero raises to $42


On the turn I felt like he either improved his hand or really likes his hand when he leads again. I feel like its possible the flush hit him, or that he has 2p or a good ace. Either way, he does not want this card checked behind.

On the river I am almost sure he doesn't have a strong heart seeing his bet sizing, which looks like a blocking bet... so I raised it as I can't call here.
