First hand: I bet $2 on turn. And go from there. As played and without reads I call river. Villian might be floating with two overs or another overpair.

Second hand: I'm not to sure because it's 3way. If it's HU I'm cbetting 100% of the time.

On the first hand, a turn bet is mandatory. You've got an overpair. Villain might have been hanging around with A5, A2, A6, or some other raggy one pair hand. This is 10NL afterall. I'd say bet somewhere between $2 and $2.50. A diamond draw also came on the turn and you don't villain's potential draw priced out.

On the second hand, I think that I bet out on the flop. SB only has $0.55 behind. It's almost as if this is a heads up flop. I prob bet $1 and then go into c/f mode if BB comes along for the ride.

Let's say that did happen and the turn card is the same. We've got a set on a 3flush board. I think a turn bet would be required as well. I'd bet around $2. We're left with a tough decision if BB decides to push. I think I probably stack off here. There's a chance he's in here with the naked A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or possibly KJ or any rag pair.

Hope I didn't hijack the thread. Let me know if this is comprehensible. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

1 - Bet turn.

2 - Fine.

1tripz1...

As you move up, you'll see that your line in the first hand begs for someone to take it away on the river. You showed weakness and the villain pounced. Do people know to do that at that level? Probably not, but its a good habit to get into in that situation. More aggression in that spot, bet the turn.

So if he calls the turn on the fist hand, what do we do on river?

This is the beauty of having position... he would have to act first and then you can make your decision based on that.

If he checks, and the board is scary, I might check behind, if I think I'm still ahead, he gets a value bet, maybe 1/3 pot.
