    Default Microstakes players: TO THE BATCAVE!

    Grinding a roll is tougher than I remember. I am baffled at the play and everyone one down here is fuckin apeshit!


    Villain is the lightest 3-better I might have ever come across. Runs ~47/20 Seen him do it with 78o, 44. And since his range is so wide without hitting a set it's tough to play postflop with him.

    Stacks:
    Hero ($10.55)
    BTN ($19.70)
    SB ($15.65)
    BB ($2.70)

    Pre-flop: ($0.15, 4 players) Hero is CO
    Hero raises to $0.40, 1 fold, SB raises to $2,

    Shove, fold,call? All seem spewy in their own way.

    CO ($28.75)
    BTN ($4.70)
    SB ($6.10)
    Hero ($11.45)

    Pre-flop: ($0.15, 5 players) Hero is BB
    1 fold, CO calls $0.10, 1 fold, SB calls $0.05, Hero checks

    Flop: ($0.30, 3 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks, CO bets $0.30, SB folds, Hero raises to $1, CO raises to $2.50

    I was thinking a shove would probably be bad, because how often is something worse gonna call? Then I remember who I was in a pot with and wasn't sure what my best line here would be.

    Kind of trivial, but do you pay this off? Doesnt make sense.
    He's taken this line a few times and just overbet the shit out of the pot

    Smooth call or shove over? Not sure what these guys are shoving/calling with.

    Hand 1: Make it $5 to go, call if he shoves and shove any flop if he flats.

    Hand 2: I only flop flushes once every 2000 hands, so I never think anyone else ever does, I ship it.

    Hand 3: Only bad option I can see is raising, think calling and folding are both fine, you're ahead a fair amount and behind a fair amount, since you only have to be right like 40% of the time I think you can call.

    Hand 4: Fist pump call.

    1. Shoving is definitely profitable but it might be even better to get a c-bet out of him. If he c-bets every flop then call and shove over his c-bet on any flop, if he plays cautiously postflop then your only choice is to shove now. BTW I don't literally mean any flop, like a KQJ all spades flop I'd execute the check and the fold, but 90% of flops I'm shoving over his c-bet.

    2. Your check-raise is really terrible, just bet. As played, fold unless he's as crazy postflop as he is preflop (and probably still even then).

    3. Fold WTF

    4. Who cares? I guess 10NL villains might be stupid enough to call $3 with hands they'd fold to a shove, so call.
