I think you slowed down too soon. Especially on the 2nd hand, button could have KK-TT, has an overpair just like you, and you are crushing him. I think you are missing bets. Keep raising and reraising. Maybe check-raise the turn, and see if he keeps coming.

On the first hand, cap the flop, and lead the turn. If there's still a lot of action, maybe slow down. This is a rainbow flop, so maybe BB and CO both have Jacks.

First hand: You should probably cap the flop and bet the turn but it's pretty hard to say without reads.

Second hand: I'm at least betting the turn. Maybe 3-bet if he raises, maybe just call. Kinda depends on reads again.

Both hands look like sets to me.

First one, probably sixes, I don't think many would call 2 cold with deuces but it's not totally improbable.

Second one looks like nines which would explain the preflop isolation play from Button.

Hand 1 - Cap flop, lead turn, call down if raised.
Hand 2 - Lead turn, probably 3-bet, does Villain exactly have 99 here?

what hands are you worried about in hand 2?

Puckhead · #7 03-08-2006, 11:47 AM

Hand 1 I probably fire one more out on the turn and then call down from there if raised.

Hand 2 I think we're probably up against KK or QQ, nothing on the board scares me a lot, so I would probably continue raising.

I think that's MUBS. On the second one, wouldn't he play AA-TT the same way pre-flop and on the flop? AA-TT happend a lot more frequently than 99.

There's a player in between pre-flop.

Flop i don't like a cap after it has been raised and reraised when im OOP so i think the passive approach is right there.

Second hand, looking at it again, should have been full steam ahead. I can't see 9s here and it could be a real aggressive FD, maybe an AKs going balls out. Most likely another overpair with me.

You think more times than not on Hand 1 is an AJ or better, but not a set in this spot by the 3-bet?
