WHHHHEEE I'm finally at 100nl, now for a couple of hands.

[thizzSantaCruz]

Got to 100nl finally. Today was my first session playing all 100nl tables. I need some feedback.

1)Villain was pretty aggressive and had recently 4 bet me out of position. I haven't seen him lead yet.

3)Villain is very aggro and we have a long 3 bet history. We each 4 bet the other occasionally. No real history about anyone getting completely out of line on paired boards.....yet. I really don't see him calling with worse here if I shove, but I hate letting another card fall. What should I do?

1) flop call is fine especially since its a small bet, calling turn is spew though without a solid read. hes not really betting anything here youre ahead of.

2)fold pre. i really dont like anything about this hand.

3)if villain is very aggro and you have alot of history in 3bet pots i think shove is fine. calling may be better here and let villain draw to 2-6 outs.

[kmind]

Agreed with bode here on all hands. Hand 2 is def. a check on river. 3 is harder. I may just call flop and push a non-A or K turn but we'll almost committed anyways.

[Galapogos]

Hand #1: You're beat too often on the turn. His line's dumb but I still give it respect I guess.

Hand #2: This is an absolute disaster. Fold preflop. Fold the flop to the loose-passive's pot sized donk. Check behind turn with your hand with showdown value. On he river stop trying to bluff the donk.

Hand #3: I call the flop.

[will641]

1) flop call is fine, since he obv doesnt always have a K, but the turn card just kills your hand, so you just have to let it go.

2) eh, hand 2 i definitely think is pretty spewtastic. but just fold pre like bode said. you dont need to be raising crap like that unless you have 2 really tight blinds.

3) im really stuck between wanting to shove and wanting to call and getting it in on turn assuming no A or K comes.

[Fnord]

Hand 1: Tough spot, I might make a tight fold on the flop. I might raise it right there. I give his UTG range a little respect, my guess is like KQish.
Hand 2: Don't make pre-flop too big of a habbit, maybe at least a Q9 or J9ish hand for a little more strength. I check behind the turn. I like the river bet.
Hand 3: Play a big pot.

[thizzSantaCruz]

I am surprised about your guys responses to hand 1. The only hand I can put him on that beats us is KQ, or a very small chance of AK.

Will you say the turn card kills my action but I disagree, this makes TT almost impossible here and strengthens my range vs him. KK gets 4 bet pf, and he's not calling a 3 bet with AT oop.

Based on the dynamics I figured he's more likely to be bluffing then having KQ here.

[gabe]

1 is good, 2 feels like he has Axcc and isnt folding, and since u beat all the other flushdraws u might as well check check

i would raise to 40ish and call shove on 3. hes not folding TT and if u have a big 3 betting history he might get stupid and shove AK or whatever.

[Numbr2intheWorld]

1) is close but you seem to have taken best course of action. There's no place you should really raise, bet or fold.

2) i don't really like betting the turn, i doubt he's calling anything worse (and this usually isn't a draw line from a loosepassive)

3) Raise get it in. He will get it in with much worse, trust me. I also like gabes suggestion of raising to 40 cause that raise size has the best chance of getting shoved over with shit.

[thizzSantaCruz]

For the results:

Hand 1 villain showed 88

Hand 2 I really think raising flop is better, if I had something like A7 I like calling the flop and checking behind the turn. Villain open folded A8 WTF...lol the only hand I thought he wouldn't fold

Hand3 I shoved and villain folded.

okay i think i misread the hand. i thought you were betting and he was calling.

[bode]

i still dont like hand 1 and think his range is weighted way too much toward AK to call the turn.

[will641]

well at least you got a good bet sizing tell on him. bets half pot like a pussy when he is weakkkkkk.

[thizzSantaCruz]

LOL yea, I've been on a bit of a heater lately where I've been calling liter than normal, it seems as if everyones trying to bluff me lately.

thats funny because my move up to 100nl has been me trying to bluff people too much and getting owned.

[Fnord]

Villain open folded A8 WTF...lol the only hand I thought he wouldn't fold.

This doesn't surprise me.

Played a guy HU at work today for laughs with lunch at stake. He folded to every big all-in until he was crippled.

Yea lately I have been playing mainly at UB and have encountered a bunch of 45/5ish players. These players never seem to want to stack off with anything except a strong top pair hand. It is pure profit to isolate and multiple street bluff at these guys.

i still dont like hand 1 and think his range is weighted way too much toward AK to call the turn.

does anyone like a raise on the turn here?

[swiggidy]

With a T yes, if anything he might put you on a flush draw, but does that T really help any hand in our range given pre-flop?

[b-rabbit]

if you want to talk about our range...whats our image at the table?

[thizzSantaCruz]

My image is very aggressive, I have been 3 betting a lot and folding to most 3 bets myself. I haven't been getting out of line post flop.

[b-rabbit]

could a ten be in your 3betting range

[thizzSantaCruz]

probably only TT or ATs
