Hand Help ...

[convictkeeper]

Here are 2 hands that I could use some help on.

Hand #1

Villain is a complete joke. He has re-raised my twice so I decided to take a flop and make a stand.

Hand #2

Villain is 26/16/2 over 200+ hands. I have seen him bluff big in the past so I figured I was good with TPTK and the gutter...

Any input would be great!

1: Calling off your stack with TPWK isn't "making a stand". I'm not that experienced at beating light 3bettors, but you're best off waiting for something good like AK and fourbetting it to make a stand... or just moving tables.

2: Hmn, kinda close.

Hand 1 - You need to fold this pre to the 3-bet or 4-bet him if you think he is raising a very wide range. You are OOP so folding is the best play pre- this isn't the best spot to call and go broke on an A high flop

Hand 2- 4-bet pre? As played I call the all-in, but villain probably has QQ/TT or AQ

#1: bad. fold to pf reraise.

if you decide to play it, keep pots small. board texture is right up there in villains range. I hoped you played ATs for flush or straight capabilities, and not stack off on T kicker?
add this to what ash said


#2: people don't bluff pf often, maybe in very very special occasions. has villain ever reraised as a bluff pf?

I'd fold. Board is right up there in villains range. Maybe if only the A came up with 2 undercards, I'd stack off. The only actual hand you are beating (in his range) is KK. Did he have KK?

1. Fold pre. AT is not a great hand.

2. Very close in most cases but with Danpil I fold. He's a VERY tight preflop raiser, lord knows how tight his 3betting range is. I think you split here at best.

Look again, he has position, but it does not matter.

Hand 1: Fold to the pre-flop re-raise. At best here you are 50/50 and easily dominated. As played, fold to the flop re-raise.

Hand 2: I'd raise the flop to $12 and fold to his re-raise all-in.
