    Default do you think about past hands?

    hand one here only sets up hand 2...and my question.

    found a couple fish online last night with deep stacks, at the same table . very loose, overplaying hands, and calling down with hands that, imo, were obvious folds.

    hand one:

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($28)
    UTG ($25)
    MP ($72.10)
    Button ($4.35)
    SB ($56.90)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, Q.
    3 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $0.75, SB calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($1.50) K, T, 9 (2 players)
    SB bets $1.5, Hero raises to $4, SB calls $2.50.

    Turn: ($9.50) 6 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $6, SB calls $6.

    River: ($21.50) A (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $17.25 (All-In), SB calls $17.25.

    Final Pot: $56

    let it be said, that i fold to the push on the river. and, maybe, RR the flop. granted, still losing, but playing bottom two passively, imo, is asking for trouble.

    anyway, a couple hands later, i figure donkey is laying for me. i am looking for a trap...paranoid? but on this river, do you still value-bet? or is the check-behind good? i figured him for floating me, or hitting his flush. either way, i cannot call a check/raise AI on the river, and figured i would take the free showdown since i did not improve.

    Turn: ($5.35) 3 (2 players)
    MP checks, Hero bets $3.5, MP calls $3.50.

    River: ($12.35) 4 (2 players)

    Final Pot: $12.35

    do you still have the balls to bet for value here? or knowing you just stacked, and possibly tilted the guy, do you expect a trap?
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    In Hand 2 I probably check behind the turn. Knowing how passively this guy plays strong hands, I definitely check behind river.
