I'm having some problems with the Ako and AQo hands at the moment -struggling to get value but not spew chips.
Comments on all streets - but mainly the river action would be most helpful.
Note: PT not on this computer so sketchy descriptions of villans play I noted will have to suffice [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

<font color="blue"> Given the first two streets action I put him on a draw -str8 or more ikely I thought flush, but could also be 2pair so tried to block the river. Call the river minraise - I guess he's got a queen? Mistake to bet the river?</font>
This was yesterday -the table was very loose and shoving alot preflop and on the flop - people were trying to double up quickly. Hero relatively new to table villans have seen me call a shortie shove with AQs 20bbs (he did it 3 hands in a row) and a standard stack that got 4 to flush rivered by someone else that left I took his lst of chips with a set.
I didn't have any notes on villan at this time.

<font color="blue"> I put him on a Kx or pair on this dry board - I think most sets would raised the turn. At the time I checked the river thinking an acerag player may bet -FPS should I have just bet?</font>
Looking over the hands I noticed the difference between Party more full stacks vs FT more shortstacks - does my FT table selection sux? Thanks.
