Re: Do I C/F too much?
This is a terrible place to c-f the river after betting
the turn. I like c-c. I mean, look at his stats: 32/22/2.2,
if he has an A he will (almost always) raise the flop or
the turn.

Re: Butchered hand
c-c > b-c
Look at the AF. Even LAGs don't get that without folding a
lot and value betting (==some basic handreading skill).
It would be useful to know WTSD, but I think c-c is best.
A bet will...

Re: It seemed right at the time.
I play it the same.
Is folding the turn c-r bad? Lately I've been running bad,
and going over by HH it seems we're almost always beat
unless we have reads saying something else.

Re: Check the turn?
I think check-folding the turn is OK (so is betting).
In my experience these kinds of players will coldcall
with any two cards both >= 10 and larger PPs, so we
are likely behind. And they will not...

Value cap or save-a-BB call river?
SB is 18/9/2 over ~30 hands. I've seen him play pairs on
ragflops aggressivly HU against preflop raiser earlier,
but that's about it.
After the 3bet I think he has a full house, a flush or...

bluffcatcher or moneywaster / smal pot
SB is pretty much unknown, 39/0/2.4 over ~30 hands, the
only note I have says "passive???".
Is it ok to call down? Or does the pot size and lack
of read make this into a turn fold?

Re: 88 BB Steal Defense
He capped, but it's a BSB and you have position. I think
you can use your position to see the turn. I also think
reads are vital.

Re: AQo River play
I think bet-folding without reads is dangerous when the
pot is big, even on a scary board like this. So without
reads I like a check-call a little bit better.

Re: AKs standard or no
Hand 1:
Good.
Hand 2:
I think the turn is close between bet-call or check-call.
Two players (look at UTGs WTSD), and we need to see the
river speaks for a check-call, but I'm not sure...

Re: AA on the turn
Yeah, I probably missplayed the flop in hand 2. SBs play got

Re: bet/fold - when should you use it?
It feels like a check on the river induces more bluffs
than a check on the turn. And on the turn people are
more likely to semibluff raise, especially if they have
seen you bet-fold the turn...

AA on the turn
Hand 1:
UTG is TAGish, 33/17/2.0 over a few hundred hands.
From my notes he seems like a pretty solid player,
