He probably calls here with a 3 enough, but i dont know if id be vbetting that every time, it is QUITE thin

if we had the A i shove most of the time. as it is fairly standard fold

how did utg+1 respond to the ai? i think we're up against a set here a LOT (5s, 6s make sense, qs dont really) the call/shove of the bb is really strong, and i think unless we have reads that he is a moron i let this go

Always always always give unknowns the benefit of the doubt until you observe otherwise. To do anything else is reckless. I don't see this fold as weak at all. But next time, raise about the pot after the sb's bet, will make the hand far easier to play

He had a combo draw with 1 over

wow he played that attrociously

answering these questions is impossible, you should know that poker is an extremely situational game and, hu, very read dependant. to answer the one question in there that i can.. no, never let a downswing alter the way you play (unless the way you play was originally flawed). try and play each hand in a vacuum

If you are playing donks folding to a raise from something stupid like QJ would suck. I check call a psb here

ah, im retarded.

Bluffing what? All that beats us is TT or the straight flush, and attempting to bluff someone off either of these hands is insanity

If villain was deeper I agree, but in this situation a raise is putting him ai

I hate spots like this, but by calling the turn we are basically saying that we don't think villain has anything and are prepared to call a river bet ui. Calling the turn and then folding the river is a leak imo, but that doesnt mean that I call the turn without history with the villain

i guess thats what i get for posting when busy at work, didn't even see the smiley

raise more on the flop ($15-16). as played i bet ~$20 on the turn or alternatively check behind and c/f any river bar a jack

i make a point of replying to any strat thread WITHOUT reading any responses to avoid either a. reading results or b. biasing my initial opinion. im here to improve my own game by sparking discussion aswell as helping you out, if you dont want that help theres no need to be a **** about it
