Some hands from yesterdays party session

Hand 1

Opponent is SOOO bad, plays 22/12/1.07 (sn chobo) and is a multitabler. He never ever folds a pair or ace high in raised pots, regardless if he's OOP or in pos. We've been tangling a lot (by tangling I mean that I raise, c-bet flop, somemtimes follow up on the turn, and he always calls with AQ high or 55 and wins since I never have a hand).

Btw Im running 23/19/4 for the session

I'm in a good mood:

Hand 1) Pretty easy fold. 76 type hands are right in his hand range, I doubt he's c/c 2 streets then letting off a bluff like this. Spades is about the only thing I can think of, but you have 2. I think calling here is a losing play. Bet more on the turn, too. Pot it.

2) Once again, bet more on the flop if you plan on going broke. Turn looks ok, if he's bad.

3) hate pre against this guy, and I like 3-betting lite. We're playing OOP against a guy who struggles to fold and seems to have a wide range. Just fold pre.

4) Hand looks good. JT no good.

Thanks for responding.

In hand 1, I really doubt he would valuepush 2pair/set, so that would leave straights and bluffs. But I agree it's a pretty bad call, he's not bluffing often enough in this spot.

I'm in a hurry but I'll write some more when I get back. Keep em coming

This is what I think about the hands as well. Nice analyse.

He calls every 3bet pre after his pfr?

All of these are hard as you probably seem ultra aggro to him and bluffy.

Hand 1 - I can never make the call here. Basically we are saying busted flush draw here. You have the A and the J, can he have like Q8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] here?

Hand 2 - I think this is a lot closer than hand 1. I would expect to see Ax with the x a spade here alot over a pocket pair.

Hand 3 - hate preflop. I think I c/fold turn.

Hand 4 - I like it all. I also don't mind a 3-bet on that flop if you still have your overaggro image.
