A selection of holdem hands

ianmc38

A few of these hands left me confuzzled:

1/2 6 max

Hand 1

I'm running at 24/14 over 90 hands or so. Effective stacks of 200.

I open for 7 from the CO with AcKc. Button who is 55/25 makes it 19. Usually against someone this loose I'd 3 bet, but I didn't like his raise as it's the 1st time he'd reraised my numerous positional raises preflop, so i just called.

Flop (40)

Ks 9c 8d

I check, he bets 15. I make it 45. He calls.

Turn (130)

9h



Give me a line.

Hand 2

Effective stacks of 250. Villain is 35/10.

I open 7c8c to 8 UTG. BB (villain) and button both call.

Flop (25)

6s 9h Tc rainbow

Checked to me I bet 20.

BB calls after a long dwell up.

Turn (65)

8h

BB bets 25.

Hand 3

Effective stacks 400.

I've been 6 tabling and have had to make 2 serious decisions on other tables exactly when this hand started. As a result, I misclicked and called from UTG with 66.

1 other limper, SB completes and the BB checks.

Flop (8)

2c 5c 6s

Checked to me, i bet 6. SB makes it 12. I make it 32. SB just calls.

Turn (72)

Jc

SB bets 10.

SB is standard tag, running at 22/10.

Hand 4 - .50/1

Stacks 100. I open for 4 OTB with Ad Kc.

SB who is 24/12 calls.

Flop (9)

Tc 9c 2d

SB leads for 6. I call.

Turn (21)

Jc

He bets 10. Fold/call/raise?

Hand 5

1/2 Effective stacks 450.

Loose guy UTG makes it 12. I call OTB with AA. BB makes it 40. UTG folds, I make it 140. BB calls (he's 30/14 over 300 hands, seems decent)

Flop (290ish)

Kc Qc 8h

BB leads for 150.

Call/all in?

I've been getting loads of people doing these wacky tiny bets in big pots, I've got a theory on it that they have noticed your multitabling and are chancing their arm that you have clicked the 'fold to any bet' button.

Yesterday five or six times at one table a guy bet $4 in pots of $60 plus and took it down as the other guy (same guy) folded instantly, ie had the auto fold clicked.

Worth bearing in mind.

bops

Hand 1

Bet

Hand 2

tricky, but chances are he has JQ

Hand 3

call and re-ev the river :rolleyes: - the limp as you know is where the mistake was made - it's a good lesson on why you should never open limp

Hand 4

since you called the flop bet you may as well be a fishie and call again - you got a good draw

Hand 5
the only hope you have is an overplayed AK - it is really ugly just push and be done with it!!

I've seen this as well, it definetly is a move people are making.

Hand 1:
Don’t like the flat call pre-flop ,it will result in you having to fold the best hand too often IMO.
I would 3 bet the fock out of him.

As played I would check call here and check call the river too.
I suppose the real question here is you happy to play this for stacks and against villain I would be for those stacks.

Hand 2:
Call turn and see his reaction on the river.
He may bet stupid 30 or something like that on the river again with the nuts hoping to suck you in or something. if he makes it expensive on the river it would really depend what I think of him TBH.you are only loosing to J7 (not likely ) and QJ (very likely ).
I would make my decision on this on the river.

Hand 3:
Call and see the river.

Hand 4:
Raise or fold the flop .as played call the turn.

Hand 5:
Calling is out of question here, I would strongly consider folding here even though chances are I wouldn’t my self.
I think folding here is often correct but I don’t know many players who would do it bar maybe Fuzz and maybe HJ.

sikes

i would 4-bet hand 1 a good bit. but rarely call

Hand 1) C/C or bet half the pot. The 9 is not as scary as it looks, I'd be happy to call a push from him. I don't mind NOT 4 betting preflop. He'll fold a lot of hands we dominate and even tho we are out of position it's still relatively cheap to hit K or A on flop.
Hand 2) Call his 25, leave the action with him. He'll probably lead for 25 again with 2 pair or something and you can make a value raise on river if a safe card pops out.
Hand 3) Call, re-evaluate on river
Hand 4) Call turn. Don't like the flop call.
Hand 5) I like your preflop play. Flop is horrible. AK or KKK QQQ. I think I find a fold against a decent TAG however might just push under the right circumstances.

even though this is true but it relies on us hitting one of our cards on the flop .

I suppose, I just find if we flat call with AK here, aggro players will abuse their position and overplay hands like KQ or AQ on K high/A high flops allowing us to play somewhat passively, wait till they have 1/3 their stack in the middle and then shove thus giving us implied odds for hitting K or A. What if we 4 bet and he folds? We make 19. If we 4 bet and he calls we're really in trouble and need to hit K or A. I just don't like overplaying AK

fuzzbox

1 - shove
2 - call
3 - call
4 - call, everytime I raise one of these cr@ppy bets the other guy shoves and I hate myself
5 - fold, what else can he have? I might shove preflop rather than make it 140, repping AK.

Bandana boy

Hand 1
Bet he is re-raising you with AA on that flop looks like QQ or JJ and hopefully not A9
Hand 2
Horrible card
I am calling though and not raising

Hand 3
There is nothing standard about min raising or betting 1/6th of the pot
I raise against most players against a 20/10 i think i call pair the board and then stack him

Hand 4
I call now i prefer raise or fold on that Flop

Hand 5
meh This is AK a lot and QQ alot im not sure which happens more and i suspect AK might push pre flop so your probably beat but i still probably talk myself into a call

ianmc38

Hand 1 - I led out, he shoved and his aces held up.

Hand 2

Effective stacks of 250. Villain is 35/10.

I open 7c8c to 8 UTG. BB (villain) and button both call.

Flop (25)

6s 9h Tc rainbow

Checked to me I bet 20.

BB calls after a long dwell up.

Turn (65)

8h

BB bets 25.

I call.

River (115)

2h

He bets 80. Call or fold?

Hand 3

Effective stacks 400.

I've been 6 tabling and have had to make 2 serious decisions on other tables exactly when this hand started. As a result, I misclicked and called from UTG with 66. SB is standard tag, running at 22/10.

1 other limper, SB completes and the BB checks.

Flop (8)

2c 5c 6s

Checked to me, i bet 6. SB makes it 12. I make it 32. SB just calls.

Turn (72)

Jc

SB bets 10.

I call.

River (92)

Kc

SB bets 10. Call, fold or raise and why is one option better than another?

Hand 4

I raised. He called and we both checked a blank river. He flopped top set. My flop call was an attempt to float and take away the pot on the turn/river. I hate raising the flop as he'll drop all bluffs/AJ+ and come over the top wih overpairs.

Hand 5

I thought this hand was interesting. I assumed BB was squeezing until he called my big raise. Then his range has to narrow TT+/AK, so I folded very begrudgingly. He showed JJ

On a sidenote, these retarded 1/6th or 1/10th of the pot bets are really starting to annoy the fcuk out of me along with the constant minraising. And FWIW I have rarely ben minraised by TPTK on Ipoker. Everytime, it's been air or a set.
