Thanks for your help, really appreciated. Excuse me for the long post, didn't want to start many threads.

Hand 1:

I generally fold KQo UTG although i raise KQs...sometimes I raise KQo...depends on table. I feel your decision here really depends on the table and your post-flop skills. I like the rest of the hand although you will lose a decent amount of the time.


Hand 2:


I never call pre-flop here. Fold is pretty standard...3bet can be good depending on villian especially PFR and attempt to steal percentages.

After th flop you played it fine IMO although you could perhaps also check turn. The turn sucked, but I don't think you're ever folding although checking turn may have been better.



Hand 3:


Sooo sick. Any reads besides the stats and/or any showdown hands known? Probably a fold without something, but damn I would dooo want to call that. It just makes no sense.



Hand 4:


Another hand played weirdly by villian. I think you played this well.



Hand 5:

You are beat. Prolly fold flop...definitely fold turn.



Hand 6:


Fold pre-flop originally and then to reraise. That flop donk is pretty bad especially cause of the terrible size. IMO check raise turn as played is very "meh" and probably not good




Hand 7:

Another f'n weird play by villian. Fold I'd say as villian is not that aggressive and since he doesn't raise much pre-flop he probably doesn't 3bet much and may also still have overpairs.





And by the way you will probably not get nearly as many responses to this as you would with 1 thread per hand.

Hand 1 I fold pf usually. After that, flop and turn are fine, I don't know if there's value in river push though. If you check what hands can he bluff with? I hate these spots though and am really unsure and it's surely read dependent if you think villain can call all the way down with K9/AQ. Very unlikely you are being bluffed though if you check and he pushes here. TJ is the only hand he could bluff with; unless there is history, people at 25NL very rarely float with air to big turn bets or decide to turn AQ into a bluff. This is because with moderate showdown value hands they will always be too afraid YOU have made the flush and are checkraising.

Hand 2 the turn just sucks balls. Nothing you can do but you will never be ahead when called, but he doesn't have enough left for you to get away from it I guess.

Hand 3 You can fold with the pot so small, this is never a bare FD in my experience. Much more likely the nuts or a set. If he had AhJh or bottom two, good for him. But I think you are significantly -EV against a non-maniac bigstack's range here.

Hand 4 I like this one fine.

Hand 5 I think I like a turn call, and a call on a non-J, 9 or Q river (or a valuebet if checked to), better than pushing turn. It's way ahead/way behind, and he has to be seriously overvaluing something, or bluffing, for me to want to felt this hand here. If he's overvaluing something the turn push is fine but if he could be bluffing then by calling you let him possibly bluff again, and you can still valuebet and have him call river if he has worse those times he checks his marginal overplayed hand. But I'm not totally sure a fold isn't a better option than either of these. Opponent-specific but against good players you can just fold turn.

Hand 6 is really gross. You should fold preflop the first time, and the second time, and if you somehow make it to the flop, a strong bet/3-bet or checkraise and get it in hoping you have 9 outs and FE is the only way to continue with the hand imo. And that's not even saying you should continue then, but if these little 1/3 pot bets worked to take down rr'd pots at 25NL it would be a different world than it is.

Hand 7 is a very easy fold. He'll show you 6x, JJ, and better T's far more often than a flush draw. *Edit* You'll see smaller pp's than T occasionally here too but I still think it's a fold.
