Villan is 35/4/3. At the time I played this I fiugured it was likely I was beat by the river either by a FH, AJ or a flush. But there's still a chance I am ahead to a lower Jack so my thinking was that by blocking betting the river I get worse hands to call and better hands to shove and I can safely fold.

But the more I think about it now, I feel I'm pricing myself into calling too much and really the only hands that make sense and beat me are 22 and AJ so really I should be getting my money in. What you think?

35/4/3? Is this 35%VPIP, 4% PFR & AF 3? How many hands? If 100 hands ok, but if 20 then its no good to use these stats.

I'm conservative here. I don't 3 bet the flop (which I take to be a re-raise of $18). I slow down after his min raise on the flop, I dont lead the turn or the river, I just hope to get to showdown cheap.

I dont understand your thinking behind check-calling the turn followed by leading the river, how is the 4h helping you here? What are you trying to represent?

Incidently, while I play these stakes, I play full ring. I'm not too inclined to raise this pre flop in this position.

Yes

It's a marginal/bad raise at 6max. Terrible at FR.

KJo is not marginal or bad to raise there. As long as you're good at poker it isn't anyway

pf is an auto raise for me

yep, them too

sometimes I fold those utg if the table is loose, but otherwise raise.

yes and yes

I prefer these two to the QTo and JTo and even KJo.

Riiight.... looks like I need to re-evaluate my raising ranges too!!

robinlacey

i raise all those preflop almost all the time,might consider folding them sometimes if i'm under the gun and people are starting to play back at me though.

i play 5 max though,which might make a difference

Fuzzbox, what's your standard opening range from UTG at a 6 max table? (As you already said it depends on how loose the table is but just try to generalise it a little bit )
