Multiple Hands (6.50)

[DetroitHusling101]

Meh i think i really butchered some of these. Havn't been posting hands much but decided to post all in one so i dont have to flood the forum with a thread for each hand.

Hand 1: Standard right? I don't want to play this vs all these flatcallers , and theres definitly enough overlay to make this play ok , right?

Hand 2: This is really meh , villian is unknown , no prior stats. My thought is i should have raised the flop , but what do i do if he comes over top? I would fold , but not sure if thats right. By flat calling his bet i think i have to fold the turn. I don't think he is fireing a second barrel with anything i beat here. This felt super weak though.

Hand 4: This is the worst of all that im posting. Cbet this flop? My reason not to is i have a gutshot/backdoor flush draw and 2 overs , maybe i can get a free card , i would hate being raised off my hand. Wow river i don't exactly hit the card i wanted but i still played this awful. I guess i was thinking that if i shove/bet 2/3 pot villian is not calling without the flush , but if i check he might bet hands i beat. I wanted to kick myself when he checked behind and showed QJo , i must hate value.

I know it's a long list , but comments on all/any would be apprieciated. Havn't been posting many hands because i was playing 60-100(+ some days) a day for the past 2 weeks , and havn't really had to many pop out hands , mostly standard situations. I've been called back to work (unfortunatly) so won't be able to hit 2k sng's this month , but will still get goldstar. Went on a good run and got myself comfortably rolled for the 16s but now im on another downswong so i think ill wait a little because losing 20+Buyins at the 16s would be devastating (not to my br but to me emotionally).

I’ll have a crack obviously I’m no expert so this is probably completely unhelpful lol.

Hand 1 – Yep agree with in a turbo . . . the UTG limp could well be a monster depends on the player I guess, but that 345 in the pot is worth taking without seeing a flop, if you get called you want to see 5 cards. I’m not sure whether the SB being so short changes my thinking but I like a shove.

Hand 2 – Hmm I’d possibly fold this UTG. As played I raise the flop to 180 and then decide depending on what he does but I think your ahead, he could obviously have a 4 out of the BB but by betting at least he should tell us that and if we raised pre he shouldn’t be in there with a 4.

Hand 3 – Tricky but I’m cont. betting and representing that Ace especially after he checks, somewhere in the region of 675ish, I think villain folds more times than not to make this profitable. If he then calls/re-raises well I’m done. Is that spewy?

Hand 4 – Looks okay but I’m in no way an expert on the best time to bet/check. It’s pretty passive and I guess your missing value on the river . . I’d be betting it and hope villain calls with AJ/KJ/QJ/AQ type hands.

Hand 5 - Yeah like it . . although personally I’d be raising the MP1 raiser pre-flop.

Hand 6 – Again I probably raise this pre-flop. I raise the flop aswell what kind of hands are we scared of/behind the MP1 limping, let’s not allow him to draw to his 10J or whatever.

Hand 7 – Again looks good to me and good solid fold.

Thanks for the comments skeeno
Hand 6: Raising over a limper this early with AJo is a leak/mistake IMO.

Hand 2: What are others thoughts on limping UTG at this blind level? 25/50 i wont. But level 1 and 2 when i double up i think a good portion of the time is due to hitting a set. If we get raised than it's a judgement call/calculation of whether we can proceed for set value.

1) 500 push any flop assuming 2 or less call, but I do not hate push

2) seems fine, I think calling turn is OK too

4) either bet flop or turn, I would often check flop bet turn

mostly these seem fine.

I suck at playing AJo/AJs (AQ even) whenever so it's pretty borderline. Infact you could argue folding's even a decent move. I just don't like flat calling with hands like it.
