I could go with calls on all of these.

2 could be a flush draw and I see some guys raise Top Pair with ridiculous kickers sometimes.

Your chances on 3 are very slim but because the pot is so big, I'd be wary of a bluff donk.

I don't like the first 2 against unknowns. 3rd one I'll let someone else figure out. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I have a hard time judging these without reads. I would fold the first one probably, that is the line of either a terrible player or a monster. Second fold is the worst one but in a small pot it isn't that bad, is it? Third hand is the most crying of crying calls, if I was BB I would take a shot here with just about anything (Assuming I was bad enough to call down with just about anything). Pot is just a little too big to fold for 1 bet on river.

How bad is just calling the turn in 1?

Not bad really. An aggro player could will either fold his bluff or keep betting and knock you off the hand. A passive player folds most things to this raise besides like K9 or Q9. You are probably justlosing more when behind and not winning much more when ahead.

Hand 1: This seems like an odd way for villain to play a big hand. I call down.

Hand 2: I call down.

I need reads for both of these hands to fold.

Hand 3: Ugh, I've been in these spots before, and I hate them. The fact that BB bet into two players on the river probably makes this a fold.

I call down hand one for sure. (what do you put him on a limped overpair or a 3?)

I am torn about hand 2 but would at least like to see the river since 2 pair is a possibiblity and semi bluff raise, but than i would talk myself into a river call.

Hand 3 i think is a fold although the pot is so big you only have to to be good like 8% of the time.

But then I am a calling station
Thanks for posting these I know I need to find more folds
my WTSD is 38%
