This guy was was playing 28/21 over about 300 hands. He seemed pretty aggro in pots he had raised pre, but in both these hands I had preflop initiative. As an aside, when a 21PFR limp calls UTG what do you put him on? I usually think small pocket/suited con.

Hand #1

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
6 players
Converter (http://www.neildewhurst.com/hand-converter)

Stack sizes:
UTG: $78.30
Hero: $278.55
CO: $110.60
Button: $193.50
SB: $153.95
BB: $100

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif Q/images/graemlins/club.gif
UTG calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $5</font>, 4 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: J/images/graemlins/heart.gif 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif ($11.5, 2 players)
UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $9</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $26</font>, Hero??? He has less than $50 left behind if I push...if I call here hes has less than pot left for turn.

Turn: 8/images/graemlins/club.gif ($71.5, 2 players)
CO checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $40</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to $100</font>, Hero???

For what its worth this is probably the line I would take if I was villian and flopped a set. I don't see what else he could be repping here.

Thanks all.

H1 just push it, he's aggro and will have AJ and double draw type hands here often.
H2 you're toast against an abc player, but vs tricky 200nl regular this is a push.

meh its obv, he has a set in the 2nd hand, but as for the first hand i don't see him having anything less than a gutshot plus a flush draw and the set there. This game is about laying down those over pairs, in the long if u can't u will go busto.

In hand two, if I check turn I must call any reasonable river bet, correct?

i think im folding the first one. it looks like at worst a set, best a combo draw.

second one is sort of tough. have you seen him looked up after a check raise like this? id be tempted to look him up the second time. i think id fold again but it wouldnt be easy for me.
