I'd fold pre with JTs.

I'd raise or fold 55, and ATs on the flop.

Depends on villain how I play JTs on the flop.

You're folding a $4 pot to a $0.75 bet? Yikes. I call that all day with AT, although I might fold the AT preflop. I dont like that hand oop vs a raise very much, unless villain is too loose.

edit: Jekyl - it'd be hugely to your advantage to get PT and PA and get them working properly and use them. "Not a pro, not a fish" describes most players. Using the #s makes reading players much easier.

I am still learning how to use pt, PAHUD... so I think you all provide VPIP, PFR% and total aggression freq, so according to PT he was 38/18/1.5.

To be honest I am not sure what is tight, avg, loose vpip; what the pfr% means (low = weak, high = aggressive?) and Tot aggreassion (low is weak, high is aggressive?)

OK, one of these hands was real, but it made me wonder if I should handle other straights differently. How would you play the hand in each of these three different scenerios?

Also, CO seamed fine, not a fish, not a pro.

Simple ? flop decision:

Villain is 21/8/0.55 and calls ~60% of c-bets.

Flop: ($38) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero ?

It is worth noting that he went into his time bank before calling preflop and also used quite a bit of time before checking the flop.

Notice his stack size.

What's the plan if I check here?

if I c-bet?

Villain is ~35/25 over ~150 hands of data mining. I'm fairly new to this table (maybe a couple orbits) so I dont know how he previously reacted to 3 bets.

Simple preflop decision?

Raiser is 20/17. BB is 26/20 and has one of those FT football uniform avatars, which I think means he won a FTOPS tourney or something, for whatever thats worth.

That guy is loose and somewhat aggressive, but not as aggressive as he should be if he's putting money in the pot that often.

I dont think I want to play AT OOP so I usually reraise or fold preflop. If I reraise and he 4 bets I dump it. If he calls I'm fairly careful about playing the hand from there.

I probably just fold JT preflop, although I'd sometimes reraise.

I would usually call the 55 and would not c/r the turn if thats what you had. I think I might call down if he continues under betting the river and just fold if he makes a real river bet.
