is this bad play? what should my calling range be on the flop? what should my cr bluffing range be on the turn?

I'd play nitty at NL2 and just muck as this hits MP range alot and you are oop at NL2. Guess it's fine if you think that seems the size wakens his range.
Call with all QxKx that's in you pf calling range, then add AJ AT ss dd cc v this betsize, obs TJs and you can go for T9+backdoors too if you flat em.

I don't have a turn bluff range at NL2 zoom, but as TP is now discounted because of the size I'd instead widen value range into raising all kings, maybe even AQ if you flat PF, flat weaker Queens and defo TT if I flat flop, don't think there's a need to turn that hand into a bluff, just do it instead with the AJ AT type hands that you flatted.

In general turn the bottom of your range into bluff if bluffing is profitable, and call with the middle of it when you are playing against random ranges that you see at micros a ton. No reason to get fancy because you have no idea what his range is or what he'll do with for example Qx

playing nl2 and talking about ranges...


Da fug?

fold flop, this is pretty bad especially in nl2.

im playing for fun when i come home from work. for arguments sake assume its 50nl

If we assume that villain is somewhat competant and will barrel enough turns /rivers, calling this flop with tens is like burning money. I would call flop with K x ,A 10 +, Qx, j10.

Lol u guys gettin trolled by julep, kid used to be a reg at 100nl or 50nl iirc

it's a good example of a hand where thinking about your own range stops you from turning a hand unnecessarily into a bluff. thinking in ranges even when you play 100% exploitative poker helps you control yourself a lot more even tho it has nothing to do with gto or balance at these limits.
