I just went through my hands and picked a bunch where I won $3.70 and there was no turn action. These hands have all the essentials of a no limit hand: preflop, and a flop. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Are they all standard?

Your flop raises are a bit to the small side but yes, all these hands are standard.

Betting is standard IMO. Allthough I like a psb in hand 1 and usually in hand 3 as well.

Looks good.

I like the not adjusting your CB's based on hand strength as suggested by SirWinAlot. People will exploit this tendancy.

Fire again but try to keep the bets around half pot...fold to anything crazy.
(make sure whatever you do, you do the same with the nuts as well...be that a half pot bet, or more.)

Nothing wrong with varying your Cbet sizes according the board texture, in fact i think its the right thing to do. Hand 1 in particular I would bet at least $5, 2/3 pot just isnt so great on a draw heavy board. Other than that they are all really standard.

Never post (as you did in Hand no 1), and raise more pre-flop. The standard recomendation on thos board tends to be 4 x BB + 1 BB for every limper. I used to be from the 3 x BB school of thought and thought that raising to $3 at 0.25-0.50 NL after 2 limpers was a bit drastic but results have shown that it works better.

I'm Grunching for fun

Hand 1:
PF: Raise $2.5
Flop: Bet $5

Hand 2:
PF: Good
Flop: Raise $6

Hand 3:
I fold this Pre-flop
But, I like your C-bet on the flop

Hand 4
Pre-flop =Good
Bet $4 on flop

This is all just my opinion

Yeah, sometimes I get sloppy and raise to 4bb even though there's a limper. This isn't cool because I'm generally not this careless with AA/KK. I'll try to improve that!

varying cbet by board texture isnt exploitable though.
