Hello,

I have some spots where I feel uncomfortable and you can porbably help me.

Hand 1: For example the following hand, I don't even know if this is a spot I can call the reraise, but I think I played it right.

He had reraised me out of the blinds before and I was/am very unsure if I played it right...what would you change? Also in general terms...

Preflop: Hero is dealt Khttp://legopoker.com/hh/images/club.gif Thttp://legopoker.com/hh/images/club.gif (6 Players)

3.Hand: I was totally confused in this hand and I am pretty sure that I should have laid down Preflop...I probably plaid every street terrible, except for the River I guess...but I think I want to be laughed at for this hand, so I learn faster.

OK...a lot of stuff and I am really sorry for posting so many hands. Should I have opened a thread for every hand? Or is this ok the way it is?

Thanks in advance for helping me!

Hand 1 is fine. I think the bet from the sb is a strong play if it is not done too often. All the hands that pay AQ off (AJ and QJ) are ahead of you now. I really don't think you can continue. Preflop you can either bet to like $3 or call and try to value call his stack off.

Hand 2 is a bit icky if you ask me. We have a villain who calls a lot behind us. We have a hand that is hard to play OOP and a flop that has hit really badly. I think I fold here on the flop. I wouldn't even bother with the cbet.

Hand 3 - I will get it allin on that flop against that opponent. He has tried to push you around too much. If he has AK or a bare flush draw, he probably calls and I want my money in good. You have outflopped him, you are ahead. Push!

Hand 4 - I personally avoid KQ like the plague UTG, because if I know somebody has a penchant for it and I have a hand like AQ/AK I will generally just smooth call and value call/value bet every bit of cash off them!

Post flop was played fine I guess but I think there is merit to a Flop push.

hand 1: looks okay, although just glancing at his stats I would say you're dominated by his range and wouldn't call the RR

hand2: I would c/f flop. As played you must bet the turn again if you're representing an ace because TT+ is not folding to a single flop bet.

hand3: meh, pre flop is marginal, but they're sooted so what ever. if he is a maniac postflop then get it in on the flop, if he is only a maniac pre then you played it fine.

hand4: please dont fold kqs utg. on the flop you can 3bet or call, either is fine, you have a v strong hand here and I wouldn't mind getting it in. The rest is played well
