    Default Pair of hands

    Hand 1:
    Fairly new to table. Villain seems loose.

    How's my play? Specially turn check?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    saw flop|saw showdown

    Hero ($4.89)
    SB ($3.18)
    BB ($2.51)
    UTG ($1.86)
    MP ($2.48)
    CO ($4.17)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 2, 2.
    1 fold, MP calls $0.02, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.1, SB calls $0.09, BB calls $0.08, MP folds.

    Flop: ($0.32) A, 6, 2 (3 players)
    SB bets $0.1, BB folds, Hero raises to $0.3, SB calls $0.20.

    Turn: ($0.92) 6 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks.

    River: ($0.92) T (2 players)
    SB bets $0.8, Hero raises to $2, SB calls $1.20.

    Final Pot: $4.92

    Hand 2:
    Over-the top aggression, but I considered they'd fold if they'd just caught a little of the flop and if they had missed they couldn't call on a bluff.
    If they'd flopped 2-pair or better, I'd be dead... but thought this would be +EV.

    No great read on the villain. But plays short-stacked passively.

    Faulty thinking?

    Blah blah Op Blah blah

    Hand 1:

    .30-.50 on turn to build the pot. Give him pot odds to hit his flush, don't bet much more than half the pot, but bet something! If he has a 6 he might go AI right there.

    The check isnt all that bad either. It let the guy hit his flush on the river. As played go ahead and all-in river, he likes his hand.

    Hand 2:

    This guy likes his hand as well. If he's a passive player a minraise could mean a monster. Just call the min raise and reevaluate turn.
