Hi, it's me again

After going from 76$ to 68$ in less than 750 hands, I'm wondering if I have a "trust-problem" and simply call down to much?

Flush and Straight-Danger, should I call this down or cancel it?

This guy had VPIP 45 and WTSD 60% while WonSD 25%.
Think he's a bluffer or assume he hit something?

Did he hit his flush or is he trying to buy his way out? Probably a 3-bet would save me a lot of money, right?

first of all, never trust a poker player

man, you picked out some tough hands....

i can`t find a clear fold on any of those hands.

but: Hand2) please 3-bet the flop! then bet turn, and if you get raised, you should consider folding, the way you played it, calling down seems fine
3) don't bet out. button raised preflop so he will most likely bet the flop, so check, let button bet and then raise and try to force CO out.

besides those little mistakes you played fine, calling down is not a big mistake in these examples

1) fine
2) 3-bet flop -> bet turn
3) check raise flop and then 3-bet ! maybe he is on a single :club: if he caps i would calldown.


Thanks a lot for the help. I sometimes forget, that 3-betting the flop can save you a lot of money.
