a couple hands

[andr3w321]

Yeah so where did I screw up in these hands. First hand I'm confident he has a set. At what point do you shutdown?

Should I have pushed the turn or value bet the river here? Or was this fine? I'm confident the other guy had a T.

I'm convinced folding KK in this spot is +EV. I know this has been discussed to death but I think his range here has to be KK/AA. Do you fold this? I waited for the time to runout to make my decision... I could have walked away with a $20 profit, instead I ended up losing a buyin. I really just talked myself into believing he might have AK or QQ but this is clearly AA I think.

1-check behind on turn and check call river
2- raise preflop, just value bet the river
3-nh

1-check behind on turn and check call river

He's out of position, I don't think he's getting a cheap showdown here.

[aislephive]

1- What does betting the turn accomplish? The turn is a bad card since now QJ wins, I would check/call the turn and check/fold river most likely.

2- I make a value bet instead of pushing since the board paired.

3- I just call his preflop reraise and get it in on that flop. It let's QQ and JJ think they're good and you're going to stack off to AA anyways. See the hand below, it looks like he has AA right? People do strange things, I wouldn't feel bad about going broke with KK preflop ever.

Thx for the replies.

1-check behind on turn and check call river

He's out of position, I don't think he's getting a cheap showdown here.

the river check isn't necessarily for a cheap showdown, could snatch off a bluf from missed flush

[dsaxton]

First hand, the players cold-call is suspicious. I probably check. If he bets, I call or fold depending on bet size. If he checks behind, I value bet the river if he's capable of calling with just a pair of J's.

Second hand, bet less on the river.

Third hand, call preflop, then most likely check-raise any flop that doesn't contain an ace. At that point he'll probably either fold or move in, and you'll have to call and hope he doesn't have aces.

There is no possible flush draw on the flop.
