    1. Blind battles without a read are tough. I really like your line against an aggro opponent. Against an unknown I c/r the flop, fold to a 3-bet and probably c/f turn if he calls.

    2. I fold to the turn c/r.

    3. Blech. It's close, but without a read, I fold. If his stats weren't so nitty you might have implied odds to draw to your boat, but I'm not sure he's paying you off if the board pairs.

    4. Fold.

    5. I c/r the river AI.

    As a side note, if villains are taking the lines in 3, 4 & 5 with hands you beat, this is a really tough game.

    Shameless bump...anyone else want to tackle this?

  4. #4

    Default tough spots..

    Hand 1 - I probably raise the flop, but is fine

    Hand 2 - You're in trouble, and probably behind to A6 or pocket 6's. You might be priced in
    for a call.. but you're definitely behind

    hand 3 - I hate this spot. makes me feel sick. I usually go into check call mode with that card
    to control the size of the pot. As played, not sure. Fold I guess.

    Hand 4 - Fold to his KQ

    Hand 5 - I am re-raising this turn, if not pushing this turn. At some point my stack is in the
    middle in this hand.
