I have a problem...

It's an unimproved overcard problem.

I think I am too aggressive on the turn. I play hands like this too often and I think it is a big leak of mine.

BB is 30/9/1.49 for over 1K hands. went to Sd 39 won @ sd 51. Sadly most of these hands are mined and I had no notes on him.

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises, 5 folds, BB calls.

Flop: (4.50 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

Turn: (3.25 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

River: (5.25 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 5.25 BB

I can't tell if it is the near 300bb downswing I'm on or if this is a huge leak. I find myself in situations like this a lot, where I've worked myself into a HU situation and blown it somewhere later in the hand. Not just with AQ hands either. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Should I be playing more passive lately? Sometimes I wish I could unlearn everything (what little it is) I've learned and just start over.

Any advice?

here's some numbers and an ugly line:

Re: I have a problem...

Your vpip seems to high. There is a lot of BBs lost between 20.5 and 22.5 at this level I think (never played it, just extrapolating my 0.5/1 experience)

I play the same, usually, When showing down crap (or running bad), you will be called down by any pair so you can take the freecard on turn. Then call a lot of rivers against aggro people (same price, you might induce bluffs from folding hands and at least you are unbluffable)

but what do I know.

Re: I have a problem...

i don't bet the turn all the time here

there isn't a lot on the flop to call with and the turn card isn't a threat

i expect this guy to have:
low GS
small pair
weak board hit that he wont fold on that turn

Ben this is standard. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] have you had a -300BB swing before?

lol, why no buzz. it's been like 4 years and this is my first over 250. I hope that is what it is and my suckyness/not good enough isn't catching up to me. I'm thinking that the way my graph is going, something is wrong with my game.

Now I'm playing [censored] like this:

Beni, bet this turn. Fish will draw to any of their two cards over 4 or will call down with any pp.

OK, so are you talking b/f here? I think that's my problem lately. The fish are trying to tell me something and I'm just not believing them. I feel like I'm either out raising everybody or out folding everybody.
