1 - yes.

21 - yea i considered it. i probably should have. in the future i will.

61 - not sure really. iirc my thoughts at the time were that he bets an ace on the flop almost always(probably not true) and he has a bigger 7 some % of the time. my read on him was that he was loose passive and when he put chips in the pot he usually had a big hand. obv off this time, i don't think it's an awful check behind but certainly missed some value vs. his entire range.

66 - with ~2x pot i feel like i'm never bluffing here. i know it shouldn't matter because he doesn't know my tendencies but i wanted to give him a chance to take a stab at it with whatever he has. my hand looks very weak imo when i raise oop and check flop. of course it can backfire if he checks behind and outdraws me on the turn but if i had to do it again i would play it the same way. plus, with ~2400 behind and ~1k in pot i don't think he's bet/folding all that often...though i do think he bet's a bluff more often than he bluff raises all-in.

111 - yes i definitely should have.

119 - i didn't feel comfortable 4-bet/folding vs. his ep raise with these stacks and i thought he would fold a lot of hands i want him in the pot with that he might spew some chips to me post flop with like smaller pairs or suited connectors or broadway etc. etc. if he had 3x'd it i would've still flat called with these stacks. i dunno if this is a leak or not but i only like to 3-bet jj here if i feel comfortable getting all-in or i feel comfortable folding to a 4-bet. here i felt comfortable doing neither.

126 - yea this was a very marginal hand. i was thinking i can rep the board better than him, but it does nail a good % of his raising range. probably a leaky hand if it's done 100% of the time.

127 - same reasoning as the jj hand. i feel like this is almost certainly a leak. interested to see what others have to say about these hands.

131 - agreed.

162 - yea i mentioned above i thought this was awful. no idea what i was thinking at the time.

183 - yes looking back i def should've jammed pf since i had no specific read of him being super tight or anything. having just called how do u like post flop?

190 - yea that was awfully loose. sometimes, not so much lately, but i used to get so overwhelmed when i had an above average stack and go on raising rampages.

192 - hmmm i really liked how i played this hand at the time because i thought my line looked not legit and i would get looked up much lighter than raising turn. i think raising the turn blows him off Ax where as i think he might c/c or lead/something it on the river. looking back, with 2 hearts and 12 potential scare straight cards i think i probably should raise and if he folds an ace he folds an ace.

216 - basically yes. i thought his pf calling range was so skewed towards either monsters(aa/kk/maybe qq but i think he would just jam that) and broadway/suited connector type stuff. since i eliminate most all aces from his range i was just looking for him to pair up on the turn and stack off or take 1 bluff stab at it.

233 - i guess jj+ and sets, nfd's. i think it's a very close hand because he had been tight and shoved relatively quickly in real time. i almost wanted to fold pf...but closing the action with 99 seemed to weak. with jj i think 99/tt are enough of his range i can profitably call. i'm still not so sure as to what the optimal play is here because i don't know how his flop shove range deviates from his pf raising range. i assume they are fairly similar, but the timing tell was a pretty big giveaway to me at the time.

238 - iirc he was constantly min-raising but this time he 3x'd it. i thought this was a giveaway that he had a much stronger hand, he had also been relatively tight in general. though i think i should peel flop 1 time and shutdown if he fires turn, checking behind if he checks and just trying to get to showdown because he has enough air c-bets in his range(aq/aj/maybe even 88). i also think for the hands i do beat in his range he folds to my 3-bet, except probably not 99, of course picking up the pot right there is a good result at the time i felt he was fairly strong.

247 - i was pretty sure he had air. if it were hu i would just call, but i wanted to make sure the other guy didn't peel with A4s or some other random pair. i think it's a very marginal high variance play but certainly has it's merits. almost like a bluff with the almost always best hand.

272 - btn and sb were playing tight, but against snowmans bb i think it's very marginal. i probably should fold even with 40bb.

275 - yea i whiffed the c/r ai. i sometimes b3b or b/c.

281 - yes i noted that, and i late repopped him with J9o when he opened co. i figured he was calling/4-betting super tight after seeing him not bet flop/raise turn/bet river with top 2 that hand.

293 - yea the bb stack size is likely what lead me to raise here. in general i think i need to tighten up in most spots.

313 - yea i was going to fold to a turn bet. i didn't think this guy would double barrel air so i figured i find out on the turn if he's got me beat or not, and on the river i lead to bluff out q/k/a high. i don't think ace high can call, realistically from his POV, what can he put me on and profitably call? my most likely hand has to be a small pocket pair or less likely 9x trying to get ace high to call. ime everyone knows this and it's conventional wisdom to fold with ace high because i know he knows.

328 - yea i realized this seemed like a tight fold. do u prefer calling or 3-betting to knock out bb? i'm always torn between calling and letting another guy in to bust a player and move up in money, or 3-betting and getting it hu where i likely have an equity edge and can bust him myself.

330 - yes i thought i was getting shoved on a lot and was going to have to call the bb's shove.

333 - it's close imo, i thought he would check behind a low club where as i could get 2 bets out of him if he did have a low club or any club for that matter. and i wasn't sure he would be double barreling all that often. kind of an all or nothing type of deal, checking certainly has merit though.

336 - yea, i mix it up there.

339 - definitely seems like a good spot to do so.

344 - yea a turn bet definitely looks better than a check re-looking the hand. ez fold to a c/r too.

368 - yea i pretty much never raised the button once. i felt i had a huge post flop edge against this guy and tried to exploit it.

369 - i think he has a flush very very often when he bet, check, bets. he knows i am capable of c/r'ing riv because i checked down the 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] hand earlier and whiffed the c/r on the [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] river, so i feel like he would be more hesitant to bluff here.

thx so much for doing this.
