Hand 1 you need to raise at just about every point in the hand except preflop.

Hand 2 I just shove preflop.

onehandfold · #3 10-09-2007, 11:58 PM

ok i won't reraise preflop for sure
i'll tell you why
from my experience
most times when i get reraised big when i'm holding kk
the other guy had aa
more than 70 %
BUT
kk is too good of a hand to fold preflop
and there's a chance that he is a donk reraisng with qq or ak
see the flop
hit K great
when i don't hit
then more of a feel there
usually with AA
people will bet hard
cause they know i have a strong hand too

Hand 1 you should definitely be raising the turn. You should of gone broke with this hand.

Hand 2, bet the flop.

onehandfold · #5 10-10-2007, 12:18 AM

oh i think i know why i called
not raised
because of AA on the baord
if there was any other pair
i raised
but it's because of the tendency that people rarely fold ax preflop
that he might caught a lucky card and have a aaaxx
i think that went through my head
of course i didn't think that out when i played that ahnd
but subconsciously

hand 2 bet the flop???
gotta think about that
how often will AA trap there
or check raise

thinking out loud...

wow.

[/ QUOTE ] this is pretty lol considering how the hand played out.

Please listen to advice instead of being hard headed, or don't post since you know you're awesome.

sorry, maybe the way i typed it...it came out wrong...im just trying to make sure everything is clear in my mind...

1. Go broke somewhere. Raise the flop, bet more on the turn, shove the river. No 50NL player will ever fold trip Aces.

Delphi · #9 10-10-2007, 07:30 AM

Hand 1 ist horrible. You have to go broke here or your losing value the other 90% of the time where he does not have a better FH.

Hand 2 If you think he traps with AA, then why do you push the turn?

Ulkis · #10 10-10-2007, 07:41 AM

Please don't post results (they don't matter) and preferably one hand at the time.

I've only played 2 weeks NL now and even I can tell your thinking is flawed big time.
