Hand 1: cbet, as you played the flop just check/call. c/c turn, fold river w/o a good read. I don't think checking this flop is a big deal.

Hand 2: cbet, raise the turn more. check behind on the river.

Hand 3: given your stats your opponent probably has you on overs/pp so i think a cbet is good here. bet more on the turn. river is fine, but i would go for ~1/2 pot.

This makes me cry a little.

1. Please bet the flop. No reason to build a huge pot with a somewhat marginal hand OOP.

i think this is an argument for c/c and trying to get a cheap showdown. however, i would also cbet

You are under representing you hands.
1)If you going to lead Pre flop with K,Qo from MP and you hit the flop, cbet the flop $2 - and the hand will play completely different.

2)if you're going to raise preflop, raise 4xBB plus limpers. In this case raise to $1.25. then cbet $2. if he calls, you hit your card on the turn, you have a nice pot to get all his chips.

3)Same thing as 1. you need to cbet in this situation $1.85-$2. If he calls then c/c the turn. c/f the river. you are oop with a marginal hand.

If you are going to be a nit, you need to be aggressive with your good hands.

This is a sample size of 554 hands. That's like 30 minutes for a lot of people around here. With those stats that's what, like 12 showdown hands?

And yet, it's so clear that the stats will continue like this if he doesn't fix his game. Did you look at the hands?

OP, please, please ignore the advice of people saying that KQ on a Qxx flop is a good place for a check. Every time you raise, EVERY TIME, you need an excuse NOT to bet the flop. Doesn't matter if you hit, miss, sort of hit, whatever. You need a specific reason to NOT bet.

Also, if you're going to raise you need to not minraise. There's a rare case where I link the minraise is ok, but you aren't in any of them here.

i agree that he should cbet, but in terms of mistakes, a c/c instead of a cbet is not nearly as bad as c/r instead of c/c in hand 1. also, just out of curiosity, when do you think it's ok to minraise?

deception. if you don't cbet w/air, no one will call your cbet when you hit-- unless they have a monster. against floaters you just need to be willing to fire again on the turn.
