i love hand 2 so much!!!

The raise in Hand 2 is automatic once we call the initial raise.

[curtains]

I have no idea who this guy is, and whether he's some kind of tightass or whatever. If it was me betting 1500 in this spot with like 5-6 players (there wasnt an exact number in the OP) with such a coordinated board, no [censored] way in hell a queen or jack is any good and also no way in hell I'm folding to an allin raise for 5000 more and also zero chance that your hand is getting the right equity against my range. However if there are overcallers maybe it's ok.

Hand 1, I almost fold to his c-bet depending on certain variables and table dynamics. The reason is bel0w isn't betting here w/ the intention to fold to raises. Like, bel0w plays tons and tons of suited 2 gappers which crush this flop and he leads into 4 people behind him in a 7 way pot. You may have 8 outs but you are going to have to hit them alot I think. Bel0w probably checks this flop with AT fwiw b/c if he bets he knows he has to fold to a re-raise.

Hand 2, sexy/standard.

I don't get why hand 1 is standard at all, re: curtains' and randall's arguments. Does anyone think they have any FE at all?

Versus Below you do have FE, as who knows if he has much. Plus you have a gutshot, a backdoor flush draw, and two over, plus pot odds.

[shaundeeb]

betgo we have an OESD not gutshot, if we had a lone gutshot it's an instamuck.

[Rekwob]

belowabove is loose in that he openraises a lot and takes stabs at heads up pots, he doesnt just spew chips early in tournaments like you hope he is in the first hand

second is standard

[FatalError]

i think in the first one i knew he'd call like 90% of the time but it was just like, he's gonna be 2 to my left pissing me off all day so i'll just gambool now in sort of an EV grey area
