    Default A few $50 hands

    I haven't played with this guy much at all but from his stats so far he seems nittier than I am and I play 19/9/3. Against most people I'd reraise on the turn but against him I think I'm folding every thing but Aces up and a straight. My plan was to lead/call any river. Comments?

    UTG ($62)

    This hand is against a semi maniac, he's running at 90/40/2.4 after a good sample. On the flop I thought the hands was heads up. Like the semi value bluff? Should I just push if I'm making this raise?

    El Standardo against a 70/x/2.5 player? River bet is all I'm curious about.

    OMG Where's you stack? 60BB's standard?

    Hand 1
    I raise 66 from any spot in 6max and the SB is no exception. I think too many scare cards come on the river so you might as well get your value on the turn.

    Hand 2
    I have a bad feeling about this one. The fact that a maniac is betting so small worries me a bit.

    Hand 3
    If you're going to short stack then you don't ever need to post a hand where you flop TPGK+. There is no reason not to stick all the money in on the end.

    I disagree, 60% is shorter than 100% but it doesn't make enough of a difference that I'm throwing all my money in with TPGK+ all the time.

    I raise 66 from any spot in 6max and the SB is no exception.
    I always hate playing OOP in BvB battles in raised pots and this is just a fear I have to get over since I have the roll to move up I just need to get better . TAGs seem to always call and then float me since I'm a predictable TAG, though maybe it'd be different here against a semi unknown.
