a trifecta of tweeners

[aejones]

here are three hands from my session that i'm not too sure about, though i feel like they kind of are standard but maybe not to everyone.. i'd like to know comments on all streets, specifically the river, thanks.

my image in all of these is anywhere between 25/20 and 22/17 or something preflop, and nothing out of control although probably aggressive and all these villians prob know kind of who i am.


Villian is NMcNasty, 21/16 no history, playing pretty straightforward.

yea they all look good but i would prob bet a little less in 2

[BobboFitos]

i norm fold pf in hand 1.. postflop looks good

is hand 2 a bluff or value? i dont get the riv bet

i norm raise flop in hand 3 or bet the turn.

[Eagles]

Hand 1 and 3 are good
Hand 2 I don't like I'd like it more with 99/TT because i feel like 77-TT will call a lot here. I mean what is villain calling on the river ace high?

[aejones]

yea guys hand two is most definitely for value. i mean, i'm really trying to merge my range here. no good?

i dunno, i can definitely get looked up by a big ace i think. what does my hand look like based on previous actions in the hand?

also, yea preflop i sometimes 3bet some of them, sometimes i call, i guess i'm comfortable swithcing it up for sure.

i cant imagine folding a9s to a button raise except against the nittiest

[cts]

Hand 1 I play the same

Hand 2 I just c/f the river, dunno what you're doing here.

Hand 3 I put more $ in on the flop or turn.

[luckychewy]

hand 2 is is the only one i would argue because i would expect villain to check behind a lot of bigger pairs on the turn all of which are probably calling river. it of course gives more creedence to river bluffs but i would probably bet/check 20/80 or so.

wrt pf in hand 1 i would often fold if villain is really tough but calling or 3-betting are okay some % of the time too imo.

hand 3 i play the same.

[Requin]

You are way too weak to be betting hand 2.
