Thoughts and reads...

Villian seemed to b an average lag but i hadnt been at the table long enough to get a great read here. he was playing 31 18 2.1 over 21 hands at the time.

Min raise utg is weid thus i dont have a great range preflop wut so ever. i reraise and get a call.

on the flop the AQ looks kinda scarry thus i decide to play a bit more passively than normal and keep the pot sorta small since he has made 2 weirdish bets now and i dont have a very good feel for where i am in the hand.


on the turn i make top 2 but am still a lil uneasy about the hand. he very well could have QQ+ and if i raise the turn he is prolly folding EVERY thing i am ahead of except AQ and calling all i am behind with. (is this the propper thinking here or do i need to make a move right now?)

On the river i make a boat and can now see myself getting called by many more hands that i crush so i decide for a nice value bet after he checks to me.

how does this line look? is this a good tyme to play tptk passively to begin with and if so are my reasons for doing so the right reasons. if not when would b a better situation?

I would probably raise the turn, looks like hes trying to price his diamonds in. On the river, i would probably shove, if he has dimes hes folding to anybet, if he has and Ace then he will most likely call any bet you make.

I think flop is playd fine. I would probably raise the turn though vs. this opponent. River I would shove.

I dont mind a flop raise here. Im definitely blasting this turn.
