    Default coupla spots - 200nl

    Villain in this hand is a spewy donk running 54/32 over 100 hands or so. Ive already seen him squeeze once with 93s in this exact situation. Is 4 betting with the intention of getting it in optimal here?

    Villain in this hand is an average/ bad player running 33/7/2 over 250 hands who likes to call on the early streets. Is the turn a bet fold or check fold? Also note how deep stacked we are. If we had aa in this spot would it also be a fold on the turn?

    MP ($120)
    Button ($220)
    SB ($201)
    Hero (BB) ($206.30)
    villain (UTG) ($367)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, Q
    villain calls $2, 3 folds, Hero checks

    I feel i should have raised to $10 preflop.

    Flop: ($5) J, J, 9 (2 players)
    Hero bets $4, villain raises to $12, Hero calls $8

    Should I have 4 bet this flop to $42? Or is just flatting ok to see how he plays the turn.

    Turn: ($29) K (2 players)
    Hero checks, villain checks

    When he checks the turn he hardly ever has a fullhouse, most likely holdings at this point are 10j,qj,aj,aa.

    River: ($29) 5 (2 players)
    Hero checks, villain bets $18, Hero raises to $100, 1 fold

    His river bet looks like hes made an ace or queen high flush with his trips/over pair combinations, my qj is good here hardly ever so I raise a large amount repping the boat, he never looks me up with anything worse than the ace high flush, and even then he'll fold the ace of diamonds a good % of the time.

    Total pot: $65 | Rake: $3

    Hero didn't show J, Q (nothing).
    Outcome: Hero won $62

    Hand 1: I'd be happy getting it all-in with AQo against a 54/32 spewtard.

    Hand 2: I play it very similar. AA would be more interesting, especially given how deep you are. I think I would try and call it down in that situation.

    Hand 3: I'm on the fence. I think you're overestimating how often an average/bad player would look you up if they had the Ad. But I would have thought an Ad would have taken a stab at the pot on the turn. Its not as though you've shown very much strength up to that point.

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    1- i mean most donks at least understand that u have a good hand and arent folding when u put in 44% of your stack. i would click it back.

    2-looks good. there are players i might c/f turn bet river against, but this guy isnt one of them.

    3-i dont really like trying to make him fold a good flush if thats what you feel he has. he has little reason to believe you have a strong hand here.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    1) Getting it in is fine. Flatting ip and getting it in light postflop is fine as well.

    2) Well played

    3) I really don't think he folds a flush here you probably just caught him with his hand in the cookie jar on the flop. I think calling the flop is fine cause we can still get 100bb in on the turn/river if we choose to on blank cards etc..

    Actually for 3 i think we can 3 bet the flop vs this player cause he doesn't fold anything but air. If he is stationy that is, I need to know a little more than just 30/7/2 to do that though.
