2/4 Line Checks - I suck, right?
 

Comments on all streets in all hands appreciated, recently found myself doubting a lot of my play in 3-bet pots pre and post-flop. I have a feeling that it's my pre-flop thinking that's flawed. Thanks in advance.

------------------
HAND #1
------------------

Villain is 17/14/4.5 and I've 3-bet him a bit pre but nothing extreme by any means. He views me as LAG I would suspect.

HAND #2
------------------

Villain is 17/14/1.7 and my feel for him thus far is that he's TAGfishy and would fold too light in 3-bet pots post-flop.

Hand 1 is meh. Just bet/call if you want the money in, he's not folding better.

Hand 2 sucks preflop, flop is ok.

1.) i think this might be the the best play by far..
2.) yawn.

What kinda price on his stack are you looking for before calling here?

*bump*

Re: 2/4 Line Checks - I suck, right?
 

hand 1 : it's fine, you have to get your money in here with so many draws. Your line looks good, I usually just bet call

hand 2 : You have to fold many times in that situation preflop, but mixing it up by calling once in a while aint so bad either. Once you got your draw on the flop, it's not like you can fold that hand anymore...

Re: 2/4 Line Checks - I suck, right?
 

Both very standard.

1. Is ok as long as you mix up what you push which you do in 2.

2. Not sure why you posted!

Re: 2/4 Line Checks - I suck, right?
 

Hand 1 your preflop raise is too small, make it 55. A C/R is ok but I prefer bet/call. Do you C/F AK here? If so then I like C/R a bit more.
Hand 2 you need to be a lot deeper before you can start making these 3bet calls in position, flop is standard.
