some big pair hands 1/2nlh

Macspower

Some hands from todays play mainly against regular daytime players/nits

Hand 1

Only been at the table about 20 mins and due to a good run of cards I've been pretty active p/f with very few of my raises getting called and none going past the flop. In the last 20 mins I'm playing 35/26. villan is a reg tag. 23/16

I have JJ on the button and raise to 7 after it's folded to me...

BB makes it 24. I call..

Flop 8/6/2r He leads for 40..... Me?

Hand 2

same table different villan... he's another reg tag but a bit more nitty at 18/9 he has 350 i cover.

He raises in mp to 8 I make it 28 from the CO with AA. he flat calls.

flop 10 7 6r .He leads for 25 I call.. ( should I have raised?)
turn 5 he leads for 50.... action on me? I call.
River 5 he leads for 50..... I call....
Comments?

Hand 3

he has 250 i cover

I have QQ in the C/O and raise to 7 .villan from hand 1 makes it 25 from the SB I call... flop 9 7 6. he leads for 40.
I raise to 100... he insta pushes.... me?

Hand 4

Villan is a passive calling station 38/4

I have KK on the button he has 160 i cover

I make it 15 after he limps in mp knowing that he will call..
Blinds fold and he obliges..

flop 7s 10h Jh. Checked to me I bet 25. He pushes for 145

me?


Comments and opinions welcome please?

1. tricky spot. id probably call the flop bet and reassess on the turn. If he leads big again, I would fold.

2. I would definitely raise somewhere in the hand. Looks like JJ+

3. I'd probably call. Results from hand 1 are pretty important for this decision though.

4. I dont fold overpairs against retards especially on a draw heavy board like that

1: Call flop re-eval turn
2: Raise flop call a shove
3: Prob call

Adding 1 more hand... reminds me of one of Ian's 2/4 hands earlier..

Villan is an uber nit 12/6/ over 1k hands.... I have 350 and he cover with about 450... he flopped a set against AA about an hour after limping in ep with 77 and hitting a set against KK... he has no involvement in quite a while altough did pay me with JJ against QQ after limping with them... he played them very passivly only calling my flop and turn bets and not raising on a rag board.. we both checked the river..

anyway... I have QQ in CO and raise to 10 after nit limps...

flop 4c5c10h I bet 20 he min raises to 40... action on me??

Anyway right or wrong i make it 90 he pushes...... easy fold??

1. Call. Usually you're either behind or you have to fade 6 outs. If I raise the flop it's to get all in. to a 2nd barrel on turn i'd usually fold to a 23/16. aggression factor?

2. Has he led into you before?? I Raise somewhere..A river push would be cool. Turn raise...Flop raise...I know in a reraised pot with deepish stacks a lead from a Tag is scarey but imo u played this too weak.

3. Why did you raise the flop here?? As ian said result from hand 1 is important,,,If i raise it's to get all in here so as played i call..

4. Call quick.

Hand 5: Don't raise the flop. Just call and check fold to a big turn bet

Thanks for the replies guys...

Hand 1..... I called the 40 and folded to his turn push

Hand 2...... villan shows 10/10 for a set ( strangly played thankfully)

Hand 3 ........ I folded..... didn't like the way i played this one

Hand 4.......... I called he had J7 I didn't improve

Hand 5 .......... I folded.

#1 call/fold
#2 i like line so far, shove river
#3 call, flat the flop
#4 easy call
#5 call and cf turn, making it 90 is dumb

fuzzbox

1 - fold
2 - shove river
3 - call I guess
4 - fold - I fold at 1/2 when passive calling station suddenly plays aggressive
