First day at 50nl, A couple hands

    Default First day at 50nl, A couple hands

    1) I sat down at this table like 2 mins ago and have 8 hands on opp, who over those 8 hands was running 50/37/2, and no reads. Should I have raised this turn? I dont know what I'm beating on this riv, but this dude seemed like a donk over the tiny sample size I had on him that I wanted to call.

    hand 1: sample size is too small to count for much (need at least 25, IMHO). but I might raise turn. At first I wanted to say that, you're probably beat and should fold, but it might be worth the $10 to see what he has. I do think you might be winning (88,TT,JJ might take this line, hoping for a weak A to fold).

    hand 2: I just don't like this as a "value push" - unless you really think he just has overs.

    hand 3: fine
    If I had a hammer
    I'd drop in the morning
    I'd drop in the evening..

    Hand 1 is played well now call

    Hand 2 you need to c/f that turn i think, it's just crappy when the shorty calls you there pre when you raise 44.

    Hand 3 also played well

    getting my swell on
    1) is played fine, call river

    2) uhhh, this is not even close to a value shove. the only thing he might call with that you beat is a naked 6. c/f the turn.

    3) seems fine. i think since he bet so weak on the turn you can call. if he had bet pot again, i think you need to fold.

    I think that Hand 1 (if you called) & 3 are played well. In Hand 2 I wouldn't mind taking the weak step of c/folding the turn.
