This guy was constantly 3betting me from the blinds. I decided to see how he'd hold up to a 4bet, so I had A2s here. After the 3bet I just pot raised here. He calls and I 2/3 the flop. This might not be a great play, or even a good play, probably horrible. But I wanted him to know I'm not going to be pushed around with his blinds squeeze plays. He never did it again after also.

I also decided I needed to be lighter with AK. AK is by far my weakest hand since when I miss I don't know if I should two barrel into it. Here the villian with AA earlier stacked off with bottom pair. I had no real read of him other than seeing that. Of course I have no problem getting it in with the shortie.

I was afraid of the exact hand he had here, mo runbad that I probably couldn't get away from.

KJs here. The C/R could mean anything here since for some reason NL10 players LOVE to c/minraise with a variety of hands. The turn sucked for me but I laid it down for him to show the nut flush. He later also flopped a boat I got away from since he played the exact same way.

Guy is 28/24 after 70 hands. Is it wrong to shove here, especially after the c/r?

I'm going to go off on a slight tangent but I once read a book called Blink that was basically about intuition and the gut feeling. I basically had that here that I was up against AA/KK against this opponent. Due to the stacks I think flatting here is best. Of course the flop is just horrible, but what can you do.

:downsbravo:

3bet more preflop and start counting all the times you "feel" you are up against AA/KK

you will be wrong

a lot

and you should fold pre if you think he has AA/KK???????

oh and shove preflop too he isnt as deep as you he only has 140bb

But I'm not going to fold? The guy is a 18/16 TAG and his UTG 3betting range is pretty small. Guess I should just shove and open I'm against AK!

24/21/3 with a 40% steal, 44% from sb. This is a weird hand for me. With the c/r shove at the river I dunno what I'm beating other than a bluff.

lol ATo UTG? Even at 6-max, fold preflop.

On certain tables it's completely standard, especially if you consider things like postflop edge.

BTN was 21/13/5 over 60.

UTG was 45/0 over 16.

std?

This spot sucks, so much. Someone could be hiding a monster, like QQ due to the blockers you have, most likely UTG, although he could be c/c with a flush draw or a straight draw. There is no way I'm not getting this in I think but I feel like this is probably a flip at best. AQ could be in BTN's calling range, which kills you, as does KTo+s. You have the ace of diamonds which means none of them are on a top pair + nut flush draw. I'd just get it in.

Here's a fun one

27/21/3.5

This river is so gross. I'm either value towning myself or picking off a sick bluff. A 3bet and call could be a lot of hands that don't have the ace of hearts. Lots of pocket pairs. The check back on the turn could induce a bluff I think. I'm 90% sure this is a call.

4 bet bigger, like .90 since you are deep

If you have no reads that turn sucks, but it's NL5...He could play AK this way, flush draws, straights/draws, two pair, but it could really only be KQ. It's a rough spot, but I probably call against that range.

Hand 1 is iffy on a double barrel but I don't think it is a bad idea at all. He could be floating with II/99 sure, also T9 and if he is loose enough 79. Checking back is never bad though if you think he is only calling with jacks.

I am not folding hand 2 simply because he is pretty aggressive for just ten hands and it is a perfect card for him to bluff at with worse. We can talk about sample size and poo poo but when you check it is a perfect card to induce. Can reevaluate on the river, we have a lot of equity. But I'm not folding.

Hand 3 is a clear bet/fold so you were spot on.
