Am I out thinking myself?

Woot?! I think you're seeing monsters under the bed here. Raise flop and push turn. And as matt said, it's not even close.

I do [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I've been on a monster cooler since the beginning of August (which is why I have played so little).

I know its just in my mind, but when you play 15K hands and get show nothing but the stone cold nuts all the time, well then you really start seeing monsters under the bed.

Anyway, thanks for all the replies. Its nice to know that I'm definitly out thinking myself, and that I do see monsters under the bed.

On and btw. my hand was good in hand 1 (so I folded the winner), and in hand 2 he had air (basically he was hoping I couldnt call, and its a good move, this is a very tough call).

That's why I switched to 6max. Now, when I expect them to show me the nuts, I see like tpnk that was drawing dead against my set. 6max is the nuts...seriously.

I just switched back, I've been playing nothing but 6M the last 6 months.

After playing 6M for so many hands, FR seems a lot easier. And playing 8-12 tables of FR is a lot easier than doing the same on 6M (but I'm also running hot as hell right now...16.5PTBB/100)

Hand 1:
You can debate the wisdom of the plays made before the river but the river fold is the biggest error imho.

Plenty of hands you are ahead of here, a few you are behind.
With a strong read you can fold but otherwise its call.

Play it for set value if you wish, but once you have hit your set remember what the idea was.

Hand 2:
I dont mind the flop bet here if that is your standard continuation bet.
You are way to readable if hands you hit are pot bets and continuation bets are under pot bets. Way to readable.

Turn:
Either bet the pot or not at all, a pot builder here and still giving odds to chase is the worst.

All I have here is a pair and that board is getting nasty. I probably check behind for pot control.
