[halperin]

I checked the FAQ and went to the converter links in there to try and convert this HH to the right format but coudlnt get it to work. Said it was invaild data or something, so im just ognna post it as the HH reads in Pokerstars.

This is my first cash game session ever pretty much, I was mainly a sng player and am now trying to switch over to cash. I just started reading NL holdem theory and practice also.

I went all in on the end there because i figured it was the best bet for value, if he has the 2 hell call and ill get paid off when he does have it. Im not sure if i read that situaiotn right though, i jsut read a chapter about the exact thing in nl holdem theory and prac thats why it was fresh in my mind lol

This is not the whole hand history. There is usually some stuff about the site and the limit at the beginning. Did you leave that out too when you tried to convert it?

with two limpers I raise more preflop. Make it 0.60 or 0.70 to go.
Raise that flop to potsize. In cash games, you bet more on all streets. The hand plays completely different when you raise more preflop and on the flop. You really want to get it HU with dead money in. The flop is as good as it gets. Raise it.

You should have reraised the flop to about 2 bucks. Then the turn would have a pot size of at least 8 depending how many callers. This makes it a lot easier to get a stack in on a safe turn or river card (lead 5 or so, obv call RR all in or push over any reraise). At these limits you want to push in on the turn if possible because they will call with whatever draw they have, which they obviously cannot do on the river.
