    3) No major reads. I know he multitables and is at least okay. His stats are 16/5/6 over 120 hands but I can't recall playing too many pots with him other than when he was the raiser PF and I was raising his c bets (he almost always folded). Anyway what's the best play on the flop (and if it's not fold, what's my plan on the turn)?

    This hand seems so stupidly basic, but I just want to know what I am planning to do on the turn depending on what I do on the flop.

    Hand 1 is nice

    Hand 2 I like pushing the turn. Paired board makes it hard to have flopped a set. Smaller overpairs and A9 will pay you off all day at this game (I say this having railed a buddy for about 5k hands at nl100 6 max on Party a cpl weeks ago).

    Hand 3 you can call and CR ai a non-heart turn card if you like variance and a crazy image. Otherwise, folding is fine. You're almost never way ahead if villain you described on this flop 4-ways.

    You seem to play really well. Keep it up.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Hand 1- I raise more on river, but seems fine- you r only behind QT and there are so many 2pair combos he can have which call a bigger bet.

    Hand 2- Push turn seems good as does call turn and call river if you put him on complete air.

    Hand 3- Meh. I probably call flop with the intention of folding to any sizeable turn bet- the problem is that you beat most of his range but if hes any good the turn will kill you. if hes passive enough to check a draw on turn you gotta call.
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum

    Hand 1:
    Can't we bet more? I mean most of the hands that fold to a reasonable raise may well fold to the weaker one anyway...

    Hand 2:
    Push seems right.

    Hand 3:
    I think I'd like to raise here, but a call's probably more sensible. Then I think Genitruc's check/push idea is good if you think he'll c-bet.
    I wouldn't do that myself, but then I'm a wuss.
    Blah blah Op Blah blah

    I agree with this 100%. In hand 2, the likelihood that he flopped a set went way way down now that the board paired. Hand 3 you have to be careful in this spot so use your position. If the turn is a blank you have to decide if villain is trying to build a pot or trying to get you to fold.

    hand 1: i would r/r to 35ish i think.

    hand 2: easy turn push.

    hand 3: I think i might just fold this because he is a huge nit and you will most likely be facing a difficult turn decision. Thats probly pretty weak but i dont want to play a big pot w/ TPTK.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    Hand 1: All-in
    Hand 2: Re-Raise flop harder
    Hand 3: It depends
