Default Couple hands...

20/40

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, Hero calls, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (5 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, SB folds, BB folds, MP folds.

Turn: (3.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

River: (5.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero wants to check fold. Is that okay?

Villain is 80/0/35/1.0/54 over a small sample 35 hands.

Hand 2 ---------------------------------------------------

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP calls.

Flop: (5.66 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.83 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero checks.

River: (4.83 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 6.83 BB

6-1 on the river call. Easy? Close? Fold that fo-shinnzille?

Hand 3 ---------------------------------------------------

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

Turn: (5 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero's a bit lost.

UTG is 56/26/1.8/43 over 1514 hands. SB is 52/26/.8/51 over 12K hands.

I just don't know if I have enough hand to warrent protection here on the turn. Thanks,

Krishan

If the 80/0 guy is villain in hand 1 (its a bit confusing to me where that read is for) I'd bet/fold the river. Against a normal guy I guess check/fold has merit. Hand 2 I like but its pretty close cuz of the small pot. Hand 3 I'd raise the turn and feel good about it. That was a pretty huge flop and not much has changed.

Hand 1) check/call, this guy can still have a wide range of hands here. Induce a bluff from JT. I would say bet/fold but I dont trust this guy, so check/call.

Hand 2) I dont get it, therefore I call getting 6-1

Hand 3) Definitely raise the turn, your hand only needs to be good a small percentage of time to justify protecting it. If the SB wasnt in the hand I would just call down. After you raise, check the river unless you improve.

#1: Why no raise preflop? River, plenty of hidden value from KJ,KT,K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]x[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img],99-55 to bet/fold against this Villain I think.

#2: Literally, what do you think you're ahead of? I would rather raise than call.

Hand 1. I think against standard opposition this is a pretty easy c/f but against this guy more of a coinflip, I'd call.
Hand 2. I fold the river and save my money.
Hand 3. I just call. The pot is too small to merit a raise.

Yeah, I don't know what I was feeling. Seems like there are a lot of obvious draws. A lot of times I just know I'm beat and then it turns out I'm beat and I'm having trouble telling if the pot odds were right or not.

Hand 2, KJ, KQ, QJ. I'm still not sure on this one.

Hand 1 I would check fold. He just seems too bad, evn based on 35 hands, to consider folding here. I'm not sure if check/call or bet/fold is better tho as even v this guy we arent ahead a huge deal. I suspect check/call here.

Hand 1- I want to SD, so I check and call.
Hand 2- This is an easy fold unless you hav e read on mp that we don't. The turncheck is odd, but he's still not betting river K high.
Hand 3- raising or calling small difference. I raise and expect the last guy to cc often.
