Well to start, I'd like to say that I didn't play nearly as much as I wanted to today. However, i seemed to run well the time that I did get to play. I played all full ring, and I feel that I picked good tables to play at for the most part. A few of the tables accumulated 4 or 5 people who bought in really small while I was playing at it, so I just left those tables (people who don't use the full buy-in are kind of annoying lol (no offense)).

and here are a few hands that I have questions about:

hand 1: Villain plays 60/20. I probably should have folded this river but I felt that I induced the bluff. I felt like a better hand from this player raises the turn. The only hand I could seem to put him on by the river was 10J, maybe Q9. Although, by the river, it really does look like I have some sort of hand so a bluff from villain wouldn't make a ton of sense.

hand 2: Villain plays 13/4. After villain calls on the flop, I think his range is pretty narrow. I put him on 77+ and KQ/KJ/AK and rarely a flush. When the 7 paired on the turn i took 77 out, and since the board paired I wasn't afraid of him hitting 2 pair, so I decided to check/call because I don't think he'd call the turn with 99-QQ after a second barrel and i thought that he'd protect his hand if he had Kx (given the monotone board). The river was a blank and I planned to c/r but he's just soooo nitty. Given his weak bet-sizing I think his hand is face up and that a small c/r or a strong lead is optimal.

Overall a decent day (my friend tells me I just ran hot, which is probably true). He says 8bb/100 over a ~50k hand sample size is really good, and that anything way above that is running good. Is this true?

Thanks for reading. GL in life and poker.

yes your friend is true. that sample of yours is just 1.6k hands so that's nothing

to link hands in the post u can go [ HAND = 576541 ] with no spaces, additionally u can put [ spoiler ] [ / spoiler ] tags around it to make it cute

about the hands, when there are possible draws on board dont be afraid to bet much closer to pot to protect your hand; like in hand 1 you are betting around 1.50 into maybe 2.25 with rake (listed 2.35 on our site) so like 2/3, but you can really bet 90% like 2.00 + and you get all the same garbage calls as you would either way and over 1000s of hands this kind of apparently minute difference can really add up, i guess this applies to both hands, betting 100% pot on a 3-flush flop with a strong hand is not uncommon.

hand 2 you definitely want to lead out the turn (and if the river bricks, that too) close to a pot sized bet, you're still very ahead of his range and a fair amount of it does not bet back at you so you'll lose value if hes calling with something stupid like AKo, KQo, its really a travesty to let the guy get away so cheaply.

rockman255: its not easy being superman U N0 MySteeZ: mega man. rockman255: same thing U N0 MySteeZ: no
