Villain is big fish, i raise 3x pre, because i think he will ship over lighter, however, once he doesnt, on this flop, if eel like im turning my hand into a bluff, and i dislike this ;( because i have an actual good hand, and im only getting called by stuff that beats me... so i was hoping for some more suggestions on how i can get value from worse, without getting "sucked out on" for example, if i check behind and he ships turn, when Q comes off and he has Qx ima be sad :( !!so basically i was wondering, if there are any other good lines i can take here, or what the optimal line would be, next to doin a go - and - goNo Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$100 + $2 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBDpIsNice240  SBHero760  Effective Stacks: 12bb Blinds 10/20 Pre-Flop (30, 2 players) Hero is SB Hero raises to 60, DpIsNice calls 40 Flop (120, 2 players) DpIsNice checks, Hero goes all-in 700, DpIsNice folds Final Pot: 820 Hero wins 820 ( won +60 ) DpIsNice lost -60

earlier hand, i just think i should flat the flop, because of the overcard out there (to my 2 cards) which gives me bad equity when he shoves but makes me pot committed when i raise that big. Mers, i kinda have a proposition for you, how would you like it, if i just post the shit out of this thread with hands, since i play ALOT as of late. like 60hours/week is gettin pretty std, so how about, i just post ALOT of hands, probably alot more then the others will, however, since thsi seems unfair, u do not have to get back at every hand!!! if i REALLY NEED input on a certain hand, i will mention it specifically, the other hands, i will just post, to give u a better idea of my overall game, and hopefully u will see a pattern of what im doin wrong, and point that out to me, that in itself would be 10000x more valuable to me then get some hands reviewed. And would make me feel less bad about posting so much hehe :P let me know if u think thats a good idea or not ;) much love to all ps ; thx for input xereles really appreciate it :)

why definately cbet with 99? but with QQ its close? is it because of more possible overs/bad cards to come? also, today i played a 220$ turbo vs a player with good stats, he had 5% roi at avg stake 350 so i expect him to be somewhat decentthe first 10 hands go by, and im surprised how often he folds pre, and folds vs cbets hes playing V TIGHT. thats why here on the flop i decide to check it behind, knowing that hes a reg/good player, i expect him to bet at least on the turn.   No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$220 + $10 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter SBHero1800  BBshunyok1200  Effective Stacks: 40bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is SB Hero raises to 60, shunyok calls 30 Flop (120, 2 players) shunyok checks, Hero checks Turn (120, 2 players) shunyok bets 80, Hero calls 80 River (280, 2 players) shunyok bets 210, Hero calls 210 Final Pot: 700 Hero shows three of a kind, Nines shunyok shows Hero wins 700 ( won +350 ) shunyok lost -350

i see ur point, but i deffo dont want him to fold here, and i feel like he was playing straightforward so far (not making any moves at ALL) and just feelin me out kinda, and being v tight+straightforwards so i expected on this dry board that hed fold pretty often vs a cbet hence i check, but i think theres also merit in checking behind, its prettty close imo im just wondering, on river, are we EVER folding? after playing as played?

first hand, i deffo want to 3bet this vs villain who almost never folds vs 3bets, and like ive learned from mers, this hand like AK id rather 3bet a big on the biggish side. so my decision making is simplified post, but i dont 3bet big enough, guess i didnt consider stacks enough ingame, and he just flats which is straight up frustrating. on the flop, im  not sure, its like, im just unsure, if i can check fold, or if im getting it in eitherway now, because stacks and pot is so awkward. eitherway i end up deciding to just bet/call on flop but he flats again, and ont urn im just like SPEW lol.No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$110 + $5 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter SBgeorge_cha1125  BBHero1875  Effective Stacks: 38bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is BB george_cha raises to 90, Hero raises to 285, george_cha calls 195 Flop (570, 2 players) Hero bets 320, george_cha calls 320 Turn (1210, 2 players) Hero goes all-in 1270, george_cha folds Final Pot: 2480 Hero wins 2480 ( won +605 ) george_cha lost -605 Here: pre is idk wtf im doing tbh. on the flop, i just check behind trying to get to a free river... he bets the turn, i think arguably, this could be a fold, but i end up calling cuzz im a fish ldo, so i flat the turn bet, and on the river, (at this point he can have pretty much everythin, Qx 8x  3x, but on the river, i realise i ccan succesfully rep 3x since i checked behind flop, he prolly realises i have some kind of showdown equity, but not good Qx's and when he bets 40 itno 160 there, i just cant help myself... dno if its good or bad i thought it was a good play.

Today, i spent some time playing ST's while nicoasp was on my mikogo (hes also a student here) and we stumbled upon this hand, that we both thought was interesting, we see merit in floating flop, because we have quite some good equity vs villains cbetting range, but at same time, with the wet low card board, it will put us in hard spots on later streets, then as played, on turn, we make a flushdraw, and pffff, i dont really wanna check/fold, but i dont wanna check call t120+ bet eitehr, and i cant really check/jam cuzz its like 3d hand and im completely readless, so i decide to lead out small, and try to get a cheap river card, because afaik villain will fold a lot of his cbetted air, and he will just flat behind with one pair hands like 5x 3x maybe even fold... idk pretty butchered hand, but deffo some stuff to think about here ;)No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBHero500  BTNSteFior73500  Effective Stacks: 25bb Blinds 10/20 Pre-Flop (30, 2 players) Hero is BB SteFior73 raises to 44, Hero calls 24 Flop (88, 2 players) Hero checks, SteFior73 bets 50, Hero calls 50 Turn (188, 2 players) Hero bets 75, SteFior73 goes all-in 406, Hero folds Final Pot: 669 SteFior73 wins 669 ( won +169 ) Hero lost -169

Some hands played against Mers himself ;**disclaimer** hope u took no offence, obv thinking i have an edge would be redic, lol, i pretty much worship you, and i just wanted to play one game vs you sometime, being the legend u are and all that, was thrilled to see u sitting "this low" and figured it was a great chance to play someone really good ** i think i tried to hard to outtlevel you (like i often do vs good players, and levelled myself into alot of -EV spots) 1st handpre; i decide to make a smaller then normal 3bet, because you always advocate makign AQ/AK bigger then normal, i reasoned, by making it slightly smaller then normal, it will be less face up, and i dont think i can play an exploitive style (like 3betting AQ/AK bigger to get it in easier and have easier decision making postflop, vs a good player like yourself.)flop, i decide to check, thinking im check/calling one street. i think a bet might be better tho, but when u flat, and then the turn comes a blank, wtf do i do, im really uncertain in these kind of spots, so i check and u check behind, all seems fine, i dont expect u to have Kx all that much.Turn, i check again, hoping to induce a stab from ur non showdown value hands, altho, im not sure, what kind of hands that might be and how much of those u have in ur range, im guessing its a very %% percentage.when you dont bet, i expect u to have something like 99, TT maybe, Qx AT AJ A9s, some showdown value at least,River: i  think since i reasoned so far that u have showdown value, u are not gonna suddenly bet it on the river, i should lead and try and get value. i  think im reppin pretty much nothing really. so i go for 210 into 330 seems a good sizing to me. Hand 2pre: stdflop : i check, going for a checkraise obv, and ur 60 cbet seems like the std amount, im unsure how often or with what kind of hand u would cbet this dry a board, but i am thinking IF he has a draw, i want to charge him as much as possible so i go for a pretty big raise to 195 im really wondering here, what about this raise, like is it too big? i think it doesnt really look all that bluffy, with this sizing and pretty much has a "i want to get it in right now"-feeling to it. **DISCLAIMER 2: on the hand after this, i 4betjammed 99 into mers his QQ and i sucked out, like the fish i am.** No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$220 + $10 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBHero1500  SBmersenneary1500  Effective Stacks: 50bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is BB mersenneary raises to 60, Hero raises to 165, mersenneary calls 105 Flop (330, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary checks Turn (330, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary checks River (330, 2 players) Hero bets 210, mersenneary calls 210 Final Pot: 750 Hero shows a pair of Queens mersenneary shows Hero wins 750 ( won +375 ) mersenneary lost -375 No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$220 + $10 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBHero1935  SBmersenneary1065  Effective Stacks: 36bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is BB mersenneary raises to 60, Hero calls 30 Flop (120, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary bets 60, Hero raises to 195, mersenneary folds Final Pot: 375 Hero wins 375 ( won +120 ) mersenneary lost -120

oh mers, the final hand, where u 3bet till like 150 after i opened btn to 60, and i shipped 99 at stacks +- 32bbs, was that fine or std? i know pretty much nothing about getting it in preflop ranges, becuase of playing so many deepstacks :P

Frist hand: Not sure why i dont cbet flop i guess its mainly because im scared of getting raised of my hand while having gutshot and backdoor equity. (its a dry board) hence i think u could argument for cbetting and against it.on the turn i make an open ender, now it gets easier for me, but when u bet, i decide to raise and pretty umch barrel any river card, i feel like checking back the flop but raising the turn will look pretty strong.u ship the river and i have no clue what is going on and fold obv. 2nd hand;ah similair spot as hand 1, except i dont decide to raise it here, i think it might look weak after the previous hand found place and decide to just flat, and i miss so i fold the riv. 3d hand;pretty std check behind pre i think, i dont really know what ur limping range is, but i dont expect it to be much Kx, and i think the flat flop lead turn line when the board pairs (worst card to bluff on) makes my line just look like 7x alot. 4th hand, u check the flop behind, im not sure what this means. so id ecide to just see how it goes, the 8 turn, it seems unlikely that you would vbet an 8 on the turn itself, if u had 8x u would be more inclined to check the turn bet a blank river perhaps (this is just my thoughtprocess no clue how wrong or right this is) so i flat my 7x, and on the river, i kinda realise, if he doesnt vbet the 8 then what is he trying to get me off or bluffing on the 8 turn, and what hands is he checking flop but vbetting turn with? only logical answer seems to be Kx to me, so i decide to check/shove the river but u check behind, is there any other way to play my hand after realising my turn call is a mistake so that i still win the pot a large % of the amount iwthout doing anything too radical??   No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBmersenneary1425  BTNHero1575  Effective Stacks: 48bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is BTN Hero raises to 60, mersenneary calls 30 Flop (120, 2 players) mersenneary checks, Hero checks Turn (120, 2 players) mersenneary bets 80, Hero raises to 215, mersenneary calls 135 River (550, 2 players) mersenneary checks, Hero bets 325, mersenneary goes all-in 1150, Hero folds Final Pot: 2025 mersenneary wins 2025 ( won +600 ) Hero lost -600 No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBmersenneary2010  BTNHero990  Effective Stacks: 25bb Blinds 20/40 Pre-Flop (60, 2 players) Hero is BTN Hero raises to 80, mersenneary calls 40 Flop (160, 2 players) mersenneary checks, Hero checks Turn (160, 2 players) mersenneary bets 100, Hero calls 100 River (360, 2 players) mersenneary checks, Hero checks Final Pot: 360 mersenneary shows Hero shows mersenneary wins 360 ( won +180 ) Hero lost -180 No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BTNmersenneary1960  BBHero1040  Effective Stacks: 17bb Blinds 30/60 Pre-Flop (90, 2 players) Hero is BB mersenneary calls 30, Hero checks Flop (120, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary bets 60, Hero calls 60 Turn (240, 2 players) Hero bets 135, mersenneary folds Final Pot: 375 Hero wins 375 ( won +120 ) mersenneary lost -120 No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BTNmersenneary1380  BBHero1620  Effective Stacks: 14bb Blinds 50/100 Pre-Flop (150, 2 players) Hero is BB mersenneary calls 50, Hero checks Flop (200, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary checks Turn (200, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary bets 100, Hero calls 100 River (400, 2 players) Hero checks, mersenneary checks Final Pot: 400 mersenneary shows Hero shows mersenneary wins 400 ( won +200 ) Hero lost -200

also mers, idk if ud remember but, where there any things in particular u noticed about my game, that were just bad or not good?

ye i think the hand 2 is a fold as well in retrospect, but was just biased because i snapped w/O thinking and was good there =//vs faarcyde i mean... we have a lil bit of history and he raises that flop with 4x and 9x afaik, because in the past ive gonne pretty far out of control on paired flops, so when he just flats, i expect him to have highcard or air really, then on the turn when he leads, i expect him to have air mainly and VERY rare 4x trying to pot controland on the river, he just cantt see me having anything else but 9x, because i think in his mind, im not crazy enough to bluff like this... that was my tought process fwiw and haha fml, i still got raped, i think i ran like 300$ above EV in our game and still lost :P

villain is unknown to me personallybut its more of a technical question maybe even a theory question, i float the flop with A high, because its fairly dry and once on the river, i wonder if we can valuebet thinly, not just for value but also for a bluff, do we get him to fold much things that beat us in general? like how do we determine this? is this merging our range if we bet the river? because we MIGHT be valuebetting vs other A high, OR might be bluffing vs weak 9x ?   No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$220 + $10 Heads Up Sit & Go Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBHero1490  SBterrapins111510  Effective Stacks: 37bb Blinds 20/40 Pre-Flop (60, 2 players) Hero is BB terrapins11 raises to 80, Hero calls 40 Flop (160, 2 players) Hero checks, terrapins11 bets 85, Hero calls 85 Turn (330, 2 players) Hero checks, terrapins11 checks River (330, 2 players) Hero???
