Not an econ major, but I'm going to reply anyways.J q was the first thing that popped into my head, so I'm going with that.

[tptk + flush draw on the flop]

Coming back to my hand, if I 3 bet you on the river, I think you will fold literally everything, but only cap with 98 , since you are a good opponent.

I think almost all players would at least call a 3-bet with the K high flush, a lot of them would at least call w/ a q or j high flush, and I think a K is more likely than 89 . Do you really think that he would lay down a K-high flush? Maybe he assumes that you are a donkey with a crappy flush, and caps w/ a K high flush, even though he is a rock.Only thing that suggests 98 over K/Q/J is that there is no pf raise, making KK, QQ, JJ unlikely.Even with the rock read, I think you have to 3-bet.

[10's : too weak?]

No reads on sb (new to table), UTG somewhat loose passive, bet/raises w/ top pair or better, calls down otherwise. CO loose aggressive, bluffs too much. .25/.50 Hold'em (5-handed)Preflop:Hero is bb with 10 10 :spade:UTG calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, Hero raises, UTG calls, CO calls, SB callsFlop:(8 sb) (4 players) A K 2 SB bets, Hero foldsCrappy flop for me. If SB checks, I probably bet/call, fold turn UI.I assume SB to be loose passive until proven otherwise, and give him credit for either the A or K. I realize that it could be the flush draw/ bottom pair/straight draw betting out, but having two people to act behind me I just fold.Is folding here bad?

[6 max 0.5-1 at party]

Play more hands. 1.5 k hands isn't nearly enough to determine how well you are playing, etc.Lots of varience in 6-max. Large downswings probably ahead. Not saying that you're not beating the game, but you're not beating it at 7BB/100.Other than that, I know nothing about pt so I won't critique.

[kj soooted]

I probably 3-bet preflop.Does sb usually continuation bet? reads?What does sb raise pf? 10-10, ak, kk, kq, k10 possibly 44 and 66 seem like a reasonable range of hands that he could have you beat with. He may raise the turn with (if he doesn't trust you, or puts you on middle pair/bluff) jj, qq, a10,Problem is that if the sb has you beat on the turn, he still has you beat on the river, so I think 3 bet turn/fold to cap is better than raise/call river, but your line seems best.I like the river call.

[a4s from middle]

(13/47)*2 = 55.3%what am i doing wrong?I'm afraid I will lose any respect for myself that I have EVER had, if i'm making a retard mistake.

You're double counting the times you hit an out on the turn AND also on the river. I think the number is actually (13/47) + (13/46 * 34/47) = 48%I could be wrong though...

[my ludicrous dream/theory...]

it starts with.......Kinda intersteing...don't start flaming off the batand ends with....even the odds of this occuring are way worse than having my aces hold up against anything...

say what?

[2/4. jj, 8 plrs to the flop in raised pot]

Any reads on the button? I think you are behind and drawing to a 2-outer a lot. I just call down, I don't checkraise the turn. I would try to get to showdown as cheaply as possible. Maybe that's a weak line; I guess it depends on how aggressive the button is.

[how's my line here?]

sshe says just call preflop, but it's probably close.Not sure about the turn line. check/call/3-bet? what if sb just calls?I don't really know what a better line is though. maybe just raise the turn?

[flopped a set: too weak?]

Button is loose passiveBB is unknown.25/.50 holdem (4 handed)Preflop: Hero is UTG w/ 8:diamond: 8 Hero raises, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.(8 SB) Flop: 8 2 Q SB checks, BB bets, Hero calls, Button calls.(8.5 BB) Turn: A BB bets, Hero calls, Button calls(11 BB *raked .5 BB*)River: 9 BB bets, Hero calls, Button callsFinal Pot: 14 BBAfter getting 3-bet on the flop, I froze and just went into call down mode. I'm not sure what my line on the turn and river should be though. Should I raise/call the turn, fold river UI to a 3-bet?or raise/call, call river UI (non spade)?or raise/fold?or wait for a safe river and raise the river?Looking back, I think raise/calling the turn, call a nonspade river, bet if I don't get three-bet on the turn. Is that ok?

[facing donk bet on a scary board]

oh yeah, I forgot about that... I dunno then.

[facing donk bet on a scary board]

Why not fold that flop?TPTK ain't a great hand with that board.

You also have a gutshot draw, getting 8-1 I don't think folding is good.

[*sigh* anybody else ever had this]

Now, I dont have a huge online bankroll to begin with, but I pretty much lost the whole thing today on FTP on 4 hands over the period of the day

If 4 buyins is pretty much your whole bankroll, you are playing way over your head.

QFTOr you made this up...

[definitely posted this in general the first time.]

Ugh... so much gaybetting.When you say the BB is tilting, you mean that his bets don't mean anything right?Pf, flop, and turn I like.Getting about 7.5 to 1, with the BB probably just calling behind, I think I call. It seems like this is a lower flush/ straight/ not boat at least often enough to make calling profitable.I make a call here, expecting to get beat a fair amount of the time.If it gets capped behind... then I'm not sure...

[i owe an apology]

"It also was great, listen, let's just get down to it, I want to wash DN's balls, if you have a washcloth, let me know."

I actually laughed at this, because it wasn't a ball sucking jopke. CTH pwns, I just wish nwpers would stop bringing all this shit here. On topic: Nice to see DN is man enough to admit his mistakes. I still think Dreamclown has an edge though... I guess we'll see.

[hand posting]

lol. Actuary is the man . Thanks for the advice.

[hand posting]

1.) sites I play at (prima, fantasy) aren't supported by hand converter, so it takes long time to post hands.2.) I'm a donkey, reading hands is probably more useful than posting my own hands.3.) I'm a donkey and don't contribute to answering other people's questions, so i'd be greedy to try to get people to answer mine.4.) I'm a donkey so I only post stupid hands anyway.

[kk ina big pot]

Also, I probably do have the best hand on the flop, but with 4 players with me all the way till the end, I don't think I'll have the best hand more than 60% of the time at the river.

I could be totally wrong, but I was under the impression that you should bet as long as you win more often than 1/5 of the time, which I am pretty sure you do.

[when to start calling?]

Hm... seems like everyone knows he had AA... except for me. :oops: . (and sadly, a situation almost exactly like this happened again, and I did the exact same thing...)So from now on, I call down from the turn raise. Thanks guys.

[interesting decision on every street]

PF looks ok to me.I think flop call is fine, you're getting 10:1 to call, with 4 gutshot outs and the bd flush draw.Turn, I think I bet out. You have the gutshot draw and the flush draw = 12 outs. Given 3 callers, I think you have equity to bet here (12 outs hit river 26% of the time), even if your ace outs are dirty, which is likely due to MP1.River, I three-bet this everyday, and hope BB caps. I guess that may be donk play on my part, but it just seems like a lower flush is much more likely than a boat.** Edit: after re looking at the hand again, I realize that some of your flush outs may be dirty because of boat possibility, so check/calling the turn is probably be a better line than bet/calling. **

[when to start calling?]

First hand in, no reads..25/.50 Hold'em (6 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is big blind with [Kc], [Kd].UTG folds, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB folds , Hero raises, MP calls, CO calls, Button folds.Limp raise here screams strength to me; given no reads I think his hand range is from jj-aa, qa, ka. I don't really know though, because limp raising rarely happens in my games. Obvious cap for value here.Flop: (14.50 SB) [10c], [6h], [6s] (3 players)Hero bets, Hero calls.I'm almost certain CO doesn't have a 6. I put him on either TPTK or an overpair.Turn: (11.75 BB) [2h] (2 players)Hero bets, Hero calls.Another blank comes, I am thinking that the only hand that CO could have that beats me is AA. I keep raising.River: (19.75 BB) [5c] (2 players)Hero bets, Hero calls.Again, still thinking that jj or qq are at least as likely as AA (which is almost certainly wrong), totally discount 1010.Final Pot: 27.75 BBLooking back, I realize how donkishly I played this. Given that most players are fairly loose passive at these limits, showing this much strength on every street means I am almost certainly beat. I still think that a 6 is not a possibility. 1010 is the hand I should fear most, I think. The only other possibility is a maniac, or an overplayed jj-aa (like mine).My question is, when should I start calling down? Right now I'm leaning towards bet-calling the turn, c/c river.Any thoughts would be appreciated.

[the search function]

Search function sucks. It keeps getting pruned so that after a few days you can't search for something anymore. Makes it hard to find old threads. But I guess it works for this purpose.less threads = good.
