sry bout drowning the forum in hands... only comment on one if u feel like it or come back if ur bored...

I reraise flop in hand 1.

[Numbr2intheWorld]

I reraise flop in hand 1.

I agree.

Hand 2: Don't laydown AA in a reraised pot please. Good Hand.

Hand 3: 3-bet flop all in

Hand 4: Can't really fold since Villians line makes no sense.

Hand 5: I like it a lot. the only hand that has a flush is AJs and it's doubtful he has that. Could have an sc.

Any good hand is probably raising the flop and his turn bet is kinda weak.

[sauce123]

hmmmm... I honestly didnt even consider re raising flop in hand 1, but thats a good line

[elipsesjeff]

hmmmm... I honestly didnt even consider re raising flop in hand 1, but thats a good line

esp deep.

Hand 1 - I think you have to reraise the flop here - his reraise is just over a minraise - doesnt look as though he is protecting a made hand here - probably a flush draw - AcXc if anything and hes probably going to stack off or geti in in with the worst of it if you reraise flop. If he hasnt got a flush draw then he is slowing down if the flush card hits.

2 - Just looking at this makes me think your beat, I'm not sure how wide your range is reraising from the small blind but most players is fairly tight and if hes a decent player he probably knows you have a big pair after your flop call. i'm guessing he has a set, I would fold if I was playing my A game here.

3 - is he that terrible that he would call with A2 oop? If he is very passive postflop I could find a fold on the turn but I'm guessing he overvalues his hands and would also play a flush draw, smaller overpair this way. If you do decide to play for stacks, then I think your line is optimal - let him think his smaller overpair is good and put more money in on the turn.

4 - Most guys who play 19/10 arent really capable of mixing it up that much to isolate a potential squeeze so he probably has a legitimate hand and against his range just fold, you only have 69 invested.

5 - depends whether he can lay down a Q. Going by the other hands he seems fairly aggro so I presume he would raise a set on the flop - does he raise his flush draws? if thats what he had in hand #1 then I think this is a good play - If you think he can lay down a hand such as QK on that board.

[Galapogos]

Keep in mind the following hands come from a guy that plays a 100NL that's not as aggressive as yours. Anyway:

Hand #1: You need to raise the flop. This looks like a standard flush draw trying to get a cheap turn card in case he didn't hit, but he did anyway.

Hand #2: I really don't see what you're beating here. What's his 3-bet calling range. I would put him on TT+, AQ+ (wider?) On the flop he knows you didn't call the reraise with AK. So if he has QQ-KK I don't see him pushing as he has to know he's only getting called by a better hand. I can't see someone trying to make a move in a reraised pot like this.

Hand #3: Would this guy only call with TT-JJ in the SB? This looks like a "even a shitty player gets a good hand too" kind of spot. Seems like a total set line but that turn push is odd. Have you seen him make moves like this without a legitamit hand or a FD? If so I call. If I don't have that info I sadly fold.

Hand #4: He's taking a weird line but he could have been getting tricky with AA or something against the initial raiser thinking he wouldn't have gotten much ction with it otherwise. Or maybe he was counting on you making the squeeze. I have seen people do this with AK lots too though. Whatever the case, I think 99 is behind his range. I also can't see a 19/10 trying to teach you a lesson so I think he needs credit for a hand.

Hand #5: This is good assuming you put him on a float or a Q type hand. His turn is weird though. He plays this hand totally different from the other possible FD board in Hand #1. His turn bet is weaker than in the first hand. Would he be bad enough to telegraph his hand strength like this? Does he float reraised pots in position?
