    #1 I would probably just call the flop again so he can fire again with AK
    #2 Is fine
    #3 without stats Im not sure, but given you say he is very passive postflop it seems fine, if he isnt very aggressive postflop I might c/c once and fold the turn if he bets strongly again. This seems ok though - the old "better spots theory" lol.
    #4 I like it, I think he will fold everything <2 pair, or at least he should. if he calls, I wouldnt fire the river, I dont think he will just call once here
    #5 This is the hardest spot of all the hands, Without stats it is difficult, he has to have 45 to beat you though I think. I call here beacuse im a station and I think all unknowns suck

    Hands 1 is fine

    Hand 2 is fine

    Hand 3 im not good enough to fold it and go broke here.

    Hand 4 i just dont know. Id rather have repopped him on the flop.

    Hand 5 looks like ur betting a busted draw and he is trying to take it - i call.


    jeez im a calling station

    Hand 1. Like how you played it leaving the inititive with him pre-flop so he has little choice but to bet out on the flop.

    Hand 2. Is similar. Again you have position and again you leave inititive with vilian to bet out. I assume the pot wasn't big enough for you to push on the flop like hand 1 so you waited til the turn to stick it to him.

    Hand 3. Seems pretty conservative. I suppose you had decided that OOP if you didn't flop a set you weren't going to play a big pot. I might have re-raised again here pre-flop but thats just allowing vilian to do to you what you did to vilians in earlier hands i suppose.

    Hand 4. Good spot for a bluff. Its forcing him to really push or fold. Great play if it worked out. What were you thinking??? if it didn't

    Hand 5. I call. Don't know what he has that you beat if its legitimate. Maybe A2. Any clues on vilian. Would he be there with 45s? Surely he wouldn't check it to you? No point in raising back anyway

    Hand 4, I prefer to raise on flop I think.

    Hand 5, I call because at 1/2 I think you can safely expect to see a one pair ace hand often enough, folding is ok though.

    The rest seem standard enough.

    Hand 1 - I call , Why give him the chance to fold.

    Hand 2 - Fine

    Hand 3 - I call here and see what he does on the turn but i think you line is good. Its a spot i find myself in alot were i tell myself i am only calling for set value before the flop then it drops like this and i can't release.

    Hand 4 - I don't like rasing this flop. I fold to the turn bet.

    Hand 5 - I call.

    Opr

    Hnad 4 is cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,434 ✭✭✭cardshark202


    Hand 1: I like though valor's line is good too.
    Hand 2: Good
    Hand 3: If you had a lot of hands on him here a fold seems good.
    Hand 4: Not sure about this, but it can't be too bad. I think we have to rely on him folding AJ and less here. I think he will often have an ace or nothing here.
    Hand 5: I call quick.

    yeah same here,more or less

    Results:
    Obviously I ran into AA in hands 1 and 2.

    Hand 3 - I dont do this against normal ppl, but I've been calling down in these kinda spots for far too much money lately, so I just folded and moved on. I felt a bit dirty afterwards, but whatcha gonna do.

    Hand 4 - He folded. One in the eye for him, although I prolly had the best hand.

    Hand 5 - I folded, I thought for ages and then figured that nobody at 1/2 check/raises the river without a monster.

    Hand 4:
    i agree with Cardshark that he either has an A here or nothing .
    i also agree with you that he if he folds you most likely had the best hand.
    however i like the bet there just to protect our hand .

    the QQ fold is a signature Fuzz hand ,one that im lately becoming better at.
    Good fold.
