This is gonna be the sickest robusto before the end of the month... you heard it hear first.

I have almost reached EV robusto for the month. Baby steps imo.

What do you guys do about this turn? villian is 44/10 Not sure what to do on the turn. If villian has a K, I am dead, if he also has a J chances are his kicker is way better. So do we just try to check it down? What do we do on brick river? Do we bet if checked too? Fold if villian bets out?

either way doesn't matterI probably err on the side of aggression in such a small pot and bet; he can have a ton of draws and 6xif I check I call brickish rivers.

The mistakes he makes are going to be related to calling too much then folding too much. While erring on the side of aggression is usually good advice, it is not against a 44/10.I would check turn and fold rivers 2-5,7, and decide on river 8-A , 6 based on bet size but mostly fold. Check back river too unless 6 or J

I think if you are going to 3bet the flop like this, you have to bet the turn, like you said, you have so much equity. I think villian could also be on a flush draw like you but luckbox'd the river for a straight, somethingl ike A7, AQ, KQ, even have A9o, because he is calling so much, QT, 78, 67 and every possible connector is in his range... I just dont think you are good here when he leads the river. Looks like a good value bet.Kosin Trouble

suited aces make good 3-bet bluffingish hands imo, and yea it's either fold or raise unless you've got a dead read on a guy and can push him around postflop. looks like you got good value postflop. not sure why he didn't 4-bet pf. otf I like your line honestly; I think many people would auto c/bet it, but it's not a bad spot to check because you're never getting a lot of value from worse hands (maybe one bet from a lower pair...or guess not apparently since this guy called two), and your hand's not as good as it looks to any hand that will tangle with you here. Of course when you get it in you're never in terrible shape, but you know what I mean; even AQ has the equity advantage. Plus if you play with villain a lot he'll have to appreciate the fact that you check dryish boards in 3-bet pots, and that it doesn't necessarily mean you're holding queens here.in your other hand, villain's 3-bet size is kind of ridiculous but really that's just a bit of a cooler. I don't felt it like he did but mehJames on a paired board in position I probably just flat his raise. He's never folding being a bigtime drooler and in some rare cases we're drawing dead to the straight flush. We're probably a bit better than 50% against his whole range, assuming that he cannot fold any of it. In that case I think I'd like to see some more cards and build the pot once we hit something. If he checks to us on the turn, we can bet for ourselves too, again to keep building the pot so we can push it once we're semi-nutted. His river bet seems to be a better hand for value but since he's a fish, fish do dumb things, and you're getting good odds, I could not fault a call.

Fighter I thought you were a 100nler? I thought at first glance you only had middle pair in the first hand. Now that'd be holding on. :PMy first winning session in a while, and PTR misses it.

That ptr is a joke sometimes, it goes all over the map. I checked it last week and it said I was at 45 rating and had lost $1400, now when I go today it says 27 and I lost 1600. Since I have been away at hunting camp for 6 days, I am curious on how I can swing that much with only 2 session in which I won 2bi...

I take shots at it but have not had it stick yet at FT. Have played 100nl semi regularly at titan but that means little

The rating is worked out by how many days you play and nothing else.

general observation. I've been experimenting w/4 bet bluffing against aggressive 3-bettors. there's no point. they hate, hate folding, even when OOP they'll gladly call w/their whole range.
