Shove and expect a call with 10's

Once again, I find myself with a marginal hand out of position. My first hand at the table, with no reads. A10 and JJ are more than likely in his range, and KK, QQ are also possible.http://www.flopturnriver.com/Poker-Hand-Kd...g-BB-793749.php Lately, I have been finding myself in this tough spots with marginal hands. Whether it be KQ, KJ, A10 all hands like that. I find it difficult to handle these hands pre flop and playing them post flop. I just find myself in really tough spots with these types of hands. Any advice on how to play these?

After his flop raise, I did initially put him on 87s, but the overbet on the turn made me think differently. I can rule out QQ+ because most players at this level either reraise pf with high pocket pairs or look for the limp reraise. Smooth calling is rare. I put him on AQ heading to the river, but the shove looked desperate to me, more like his third barrelled attempt at a bluff.

My third hand at the table, so no reads on the villian. Two previous hands I picked up 77 and then AA, raising pf both times. Not sure if thats relevant but w/e. I think calling the flop raise is standard, but villian picks up the heat on turn and river. All thoughts appreciated. http://www.flopturnriver.com/Poker-Hand-Qh...g-CO-791340.php

I have a pretty simple question, but I still would like some advice. I have been winning at a .02/.05 consistently now and I find the play at this level very soft and easy. Im able to take advantage of most every situation and make money with every session I play. Should I move up levels even if my bank roll cant mathematically support the next level? I deposited 100$ to play .02/.05$. Thanks for any advice.

Well the more hands played there is a higher percentage of running into bad beats. Obviously I dont blame you for getting it in preflop with aces, but try to avoid all in pre flop situations like coin flips and 65-45. Otherwise, just keep grinding.

I wouldnt bet the pot, because any raise on his part commits him and you have to call. Bet less, like 350 or so. As played, I call here and not be suprised to see 77.

Folding that flop is too nitty especially for a smallish raise, and three betting seems out of control so I think a flat is the best option. I probably dont bet as much on the turn, more like 10$. It will send the same message as a pot sized bet but if he had raised then its cheaper to get out if you decide to do so.

Call everytime

Since you have no made hand, I'm not ok with the 3 bet. Just call and see a turn.

Bet pot or around 400 and shove if raised

When you decide to play, make sure you are focused before hand. Sometimes I would find myself just playing for 30 minutes to kill time or when i was bored and then get up and leave. When you start playing, play for a long session and be totally focused on only poker. Don't watch tv or surf the web in between hands. Music is really the only entertainment thats around me when I play. Adderall helps also

Bravo.

After the checked flop, I would bet the turn harder. Maybe 2.75$ or 3$. On the river, I have no idea. Could be a badly played AA. It all depends on what his 3 bet range is pf.

On hand 1, I would call and reevaluate on the river. Only hand I can put him on that plays that fast is 66 or two pair protecting against the flush.Hand 2, I think you have to call. Unlikely he calls pf with a 2 in his range.

Yeah id commit myself on the turn. He probably would have three bet flop if he did flop a flush or a huge draw. This could be AK with the A of clubs.

Yeah, definetly raise the flop. And after he calls your turn raise, that should make you want to slow down on the river.

He most likely has the A or Q of spades or flopped top pair, two pair. I think tilt is involved and you have to call.

Home cash game with 6 of my friends. Blinds are .25/.50$ and the minimum buy in was 50$Villian in this hand has been very distracted, doesn't really want to waste his money but wants to double up, he won't be to worried if he loses it . Has about 40$.Hero has around 80$ and is playing decent and running well.PreflopHero is on the button with Kh2h.limps to hero who calls, sb completes and BB(villian) checksFlopFlop is K Q 4 rainbow, no hearts Sb checks, BB shoves, all folds, Hero???He gave me the impression like he didn't mind being called, but didn't mind just picking up the small pot.

If your checking the turn, go ahead and check the river. That jack isn't really the safest card to bet on the river. Check call or check fold the river, dont lead

You must really hate chopped pots.

I might just call his flop raise thinking i would be able to check raise the turn if i hit but i guess the 3-bet is ok. As played i shove the turn.
