Hand 5
Op was playing something like 20/6/2. I felt like he was putting a weak move on me based on board texture and that he wasn't very strong. I called on the flop to see what happens on the turn and decided to raise his weak ass bet to get him off a smaller pair or even a 9, but he called anyways. Couldn't find the courage to fire a bluff on the river. How bad did I play this hand?

Hand 1: bad news is that you're getting called unless the villain has AK
good news is that you are 40% to win
Hand 2: you're behind 99, TT and ahead of 77
hands like JJ and 6x are less likely because he'd fold some 6x hands and 3b JJ
although you didn't say what his 3b % was
Hand 3: bet sizing doesn't make sense, how did he manage to raise you less than the minimum on the turn wat
Hand 4: don't 3b AJs, you have a good hand and position
when you get to the flop your SPR is 2.5
since you got the best flop possible for your hand you have to stack off
especially since SB seems like a donk (coldcalling a 3b) and probably shows up with KJ here some of the time
Hand 5: why would you WANT him to fold a smaller pair jesus
you want him to call with a smaller pair
not sure why you thought he'd fold a 9 when your raise was weak as hell, it was less than 1/2 of the pot. Consider that his bet is already in the pot, and and you raised 4.25 more to him in a 11 dollar pot
that's neither here nor there
Hand 2: I think in retrospect this hand was spew but seemed ok at the time. I figured even if he had flopped two pair, I still had decent equity and hopefully some chance that he folds a draw?
Hand 3: Not sure why his raise got posted like that it, I checked it out and it was actually $11.75. His 3BET was about 3%. Am I ever folding here to such a player?
Hand 4: I was just 3Beting to isolate MP because he was a weak player raising lots of hands and I thought he might just call with worse. Then when the guy who hasn't played once in 19 hands just flat calls out of position with MP still to act, it really signals strength to me at these stakes. I feel like he always has at least QQ+, especially when he check minraises the flop. Is stacking off here really appropriate? It's a good flop but it would have been a lot better if I had at least some kind of backdoor straight or flush to go for.
Hand 5: Haha, yeah not sure what I was thinking about making him fold, and I do see what you mean about how small my raise was.
Thanks for the comments, good points and well taken.
PS - What does SPR mean?
You absolutely do not have to stack off here just because your SPR is 2.5. OH and SPR is stack to pot ratio, ie. how much money u have behind relative to teh size of the poot. There's some posts about it floating around the forum, just do a search.Quote:

Other hands:
1) I fold to the 3bet tbh. He's not even full stacked and we have no reads. That's personal preference tho, calling is not a hudge mistake, I just like to know whether or not I'm set hunting before i call with mid PPs.
2) It's pretty optimistic to expect a 35/11 player to fold a draw after raising the flop with it, and you're behind most of the made hands he'll get it in with.
3) His turn 3bet reeks of the nuts, but I couldn't fold Top 2 here against this type of player. Suggest boating up on the river to beat his straight.
5) Because I'm such a station and his bet is so small i'd call turn and c/f river, which probably means we should fold the turn :)
