List of mistakes

BB

Preflop

BB raised from the BB with Q8o. Why put more money into the pot with a hand like this?


Flop

Checking here isnt too bad, but I prefer a bet. You will get called by anybody with an A.

Turn

Ok now we have a straight draw and a flush draw, and he checks again. A check raise would would be good

River

Now when theres a good chance hes behind he opens up with a bet.


Preflop

MP limped with a low suited connector in bad position and after no other limpers.

Flop

He has no pair and no draw on a paired board. Odd call

Turn

Well weve gotten this far so a call is ok

River

Case could be made for a raise, just fold to a reraise. Call is ok

LP

He played fine, he could of checked turn.

mewso

I agree with pretty much everthing Hector says. For me the worst play was not betting the trips on the flop.

Lafortezza

Checkraise the turn.
