Re: T9s trips river fold
This hurts my eyes. Folding this river seems extremely bad in a 6BB pot let alone a 15BB one. You have 50 hands on this guy, this is a really small sample of hands to judge someones play let alone...

Re: Raise or Call?
Whatever, a river fold here may be -EV, but its not by much. You have raised UTG pf and fired the entire time and he donks the river club and ace. There are plenty of guys who will do wierd donks...

Re: Raise or Call?
Never raise. I think raising this pot is really bad. I think folding is probably good a lot of the time, but I would call since you have absolutely no read. It's probably close enough to neutral...

Re: party 10/20. Elindauer value/bluff river raise
What about waiting for the turn in hand 1? We have position with a pretty good hand, if he's a LAG, there is a high probability that he'll lead the turn as well. A 5,6, T, or J may freze up villian,...

Re: I hate flop 3-bets
What about calling the flop bet and raising the turn? Do we have too much equity on our flop raise to pass it up in favor of a turn? Are there too many cards that will freeze up a donk better on...

10/20 75o from the small blind
No super strong reads at the time, villian seemed to be aggressive, but not sure of the magnitude.
This might be a little light to steal with here, but lets not focus on that part of it.

I think it is a good spot for this, there are a number of K high hands that you might get a fold out of that currently beat you. Also, you cannot profitably check-call the river. His range may...

Not a bluff, and I'm not a fan. Your preflop and flop play look exactly like a queen and he raises you anyway so he'll usually have it. If he doesn't he has a pair which will be like "oh...

Villian seems like a decent TAG. 22/18/2 type numbers. After the flop iso, I was preparing to fold to further turn aggression. However, I thought the Q gave me the perfect card to bluff 3-bet since...

Without a read, I will typically call this down, at least the first time. There are enough draws on this flop for hero to c/r. Hearts, stuff like 45, 78, etc. Most of the draws would be beating you...

Re: Worst turn card in the deck, give up?
I think you need to bet fold this turn. I think check-folding the turn is bad, even if the guy has an aggression factor of 0.8. Basing this decision on a read like that seems bad to me. Even if...
