Default Some light call downs

When I make a correct light calldown I feel like a genius, when I'm wrong, I feel like fishy dolt. How do you guys play the following hands:

This one's not super light, but the Ace mucks things up a bit.

Default Re: Some light call downs

first and third hand is not light but standard. The other two you can often muck depending on reads.

The 65 hand is close IMO. His range is big A's and good pairs. Unless he 3-barrels big Ax you loose on the river. Vs an unknown I call. Vs a predictable TAG I call early in a session and start folding. Cant fold if he might valuebet AK and AQ.


76 hand is ok in a BvB.

The K8 hand is bad vs a good TAG. You are getting valuowned badly on the river. When you peel that flop a good player who knows you are TAG should stop betting his worse hands on the turn. The fact that he bets the turn and river is a bad sign for you. If villain is unknown or a moron I call down.

QJ hand is standard vs all IMO.

Wow, i always calldown here. Do you fold turn or river?
But lets say you are Villian otb with QQ, Tag player calls on the flop. Do you check-call turn, check-fold river?

That's a tough one. Even a good TAG would very well peel with QJ, QT, JT, 54s, etc. In this hand when the 4 peels off, I'd be inclined to check as I'm only realistically beating his gutshot hands. River is totally read dependent if he bets.

I dunno.

Anybody else?
