Preflop: I am just trying to loosen up my game a bit in position. Both villains, UTG and CO, arer loose aggressive fish. I am pretty sure, I can outplay them postflop. Blinds would go out of the way most of the time.

Flop: I stopped c-betting much, particularly against fish, who tend to calldown with any draw or any piece of the board. I wanna see the turn and then decide how to continue the hand.

Turn: Not the best card for me, but a chance to semibluff at the pot. Both hands i would represent here, a pair feared of the flush or the flush itself, would bet rather small, so i bet only half the pot.

River: As he just called the turn and checked to me on the river i am pretty sure he ain�t got the flush. Just making a small value bet ...

Tableimage: I have been at the table for about an hour, playing solid abc poker, a little more aggressive in position, but not getting out of line too much.

Thoughts, comments ?

i like the small value bet on the river


I don't like the size of the PFR, 3/4 that size would do the same job.

What do you put villain on after he calls your turn bet?


PFR is my standard raise vs. two loose limpers ...

I put him on a weak pair, maybe TP with a weak kicker or a low one card flush draw. I think he would have bet out with a flush or good one card flushdraw. He was pretty aggressive in the past and didn�t need much of a hand to bet and raise. I really think he was afraid of the flush here but didn�t want to get bluffed out of the pot.


Sorry, I missed "Loose agressive fish"

I've been having trouble with my value bets on the river lately, most calling stations call unimproved on hte turn, and fold on the river. If you posted this because he insta-folded the $15 bet, I really don't think there's amount you could have bet that he would have called. That's just my experience at 25-50NL, I don't know if these kind of fish still exist at 100.


Thats why i made such a tiny bet on the river. I figured he might have the slowplayed flush, in which case i didn�t wanna commit too much to the pot, or he has a very weak holding and he wouldn�t call a bigger bet.

Surprise surprise ... he called the river and showed KTo for no pair no draw. Fish will never die ...


Wow! Can't wait until my Party Poker $100 free comes through :P


Party Poker is really a fish tank. At least up to $200NL very very beatable...


Mind posting a few more hands for discussion? Royal vegas doesn't let you copy and paste from their hand histrories... second worst site I've ever played :(


I mainly post my hands on the german boards, as I am a german user. Just posted here while the german board was down ... But i will happily discuss all hands posted here. Perhaps you can recreate some interesting hands without the hand histories ...
