Some more Vegas hand

ianmc38

I'm extremely bored today, so here's another selection of hands.

Hand 1

2/5

I've played about 12 hands in 90 minutes at the table. Villain 1 Minraises UTG. She's been doing this with all kinds of garbage from small PPs to broadways to whatever. UTG+1 donk reraises to 25. 4 people call. I make it 150 from the BB with AKs. UTG+1 thinks for ages and calls, leaving 230 behind. Everyone else folds.

Flop

T 8 7 with one of my suit.

I move in. OK?

Hand 2

1/2

Effective stacks 200.

I open on the button to 10 with Ad9d. Nit in the BB minraises to 20. The flop is 9 high 2 diamonds. He leads out for 20. I make it 60. He calls.

He checks the turn. Bet/Check. Plans for the river?

Hand 3

1/2

Effective stacks 250.

I raise to 12 UTG+1 with AJs.

Flop (36)

J 4 8 rainbow

I lead for 25. Tightish older gentleman raises to 50. He has mostly showndown winners, after hititng and running from the game twice. The second time he came back I made an objectionto the floor manager and he got a warning, so he might be out to get me. I call.

Turn (136)

4

I check. He bets 70 and I ship it in.

Good/Bad/Horrific?

Hand 4

2/5

I've just stacked this guy after making a really tough call with aces on a highly coordinated board. he's quite donkish. Plays bad hands oop and calls raises form all positions with junk. He bought back in for 350. He's pretty awful.

I make it 30 after limpers with AhQh. he's the only caller.

Flop (80)

9h 4s 6s

He bets 40. I make it 120. He calls.

Turn (320)

3h

He ships the rest in.

Easy call/fold?

Hand 1: I'm moving in on any flop, the re-raise and stack sizes committed you.

Hand 2: Check it down. Don't like the re-raise on the flop. One of you is drawing to between 2 and 6 outs.

Ste05

Hand 3: What position was he in, I presume he smooth called you PF. Yeah I like a push, but it's squeeky bum time. How on earth was he allowed to hit and run?? That sounds bad...

Hand 4: I'm a calling station and I call as played, (I think we might have the best hand and certainly have loads of outs, I expect the A and Q to be live too.) Although it might depend on what he had on the other hand and how that one played out.

I don't really like the flop re-raise. I think I'd just float him here.

EDITED: To fix obvious and annoying spelling mistake

In the other hand, it went like this.

I reraised out of the blinds with 2 black aces. He was the only caller. Flop was QJx with 2 clubs. I bet the pot, he minraised. I called. Turn was the king of clubs. I checked. He shoved. I thought for a good 5 minutes and called when I thought he looked nervous. He showed QTo and my hand held up.

Ste05

Hmmm, that's an interesting hand too, quite a move from your man.

So he probably doesn't do this kind of thing with air (bare flush draw - spades more likely) too often?? It's probably more of a fold now then before, he knows you're capable of making "Hero" calls and so might reduce the chances he has air here. It's probably a maths type question, and I'm not sure but I'd think the odds of ~2.6:1 might be marginally OK, (assuming that our A and Q are live too and he doesn't have a set) But I think it's probably more unlikely that we have the best hand now.

Hmmm interesting. I really hope you made another "Hero" call so we know what he had.

?

I am having great dificulty playing these hands of late not sure why they always seem straight forward
I would like to check turn here and try check river unless we improve
but I think your too shallow to be ableto fold a river bet from him with that in mind I might push the turn

Bad i think unless we think he will make a call with KJ here which i take from your description is unlikely we are now bluffing

If i read that right he has 200 left giving you about 2.5-1 That would probably suggest fold as you need somewhere between 3-1 and 4-1
And a likely hood he will cut and run again if he wins
Although i have seen players call with the Fd and be ahead on these kind of boards

Hand 1:

Thinking about the hand, I think check fold would have been better. He had 66 which held up. Sigh.

Hand 2

Butchered this hand with the horrible flop raise against an obvious OP. I checked turn and folded blank river. He had QQ.

Hand 3

He called with KJ MHWG.

Hand 4

I thought all my outs were clean and called. I hit a heart on the river to give me the nuts. I think he folded some brutal one pair holding before he steamed away from the table.

because you repopped it for so much preflop, theres no other way to play this flop imo. Very tricky preflop call from him, I expected you to be called by a better pair than 66

i dont like this. Why did you reraise the flop?

Yeah everyone was shocked at the 66 especially as I was playing tightish. The problem is he's probably never folding any PP postflop.

As for 4, dont you ever bluff? I also thought my hand might be good.
