Hi,
All the players are unknowns. what is you calling range here?
I think on the Flop. It is standard to fold but Villain bet about 50% of pot on this drawly broad. As played, I think the Turn is a nice card to raise(semi-bluff).
But, how to play if villain goes all in? do I get the right pot odds?
Thanks.

Hi,

Calling range on the flop would be something like overpair straight draws. I don't mind raising our hand on the flop too. Raising turn is also fine we represent very strong.

If he goes all in we will not have the odds to call but if he makes a small raise we can call for flush.

Thanks

Then play fit or fold postflop without read? continue with draws(9 outs+) and middle pair+?
Thanks.

Hi,

this is more advanced. the moment we call pre flop we need to be continuing with about 60% of our hands. if you are uncomfortable with that then look at 50% of all hands.

so that would be something like 2nd pair overcards backdoor straight and flush draw or better.

Thanks

Hi,
I am not new here. I usually play MSS and stop playing for about 6 months. Now I would like to try BSS.
Calling range in CO VS UTG raise,
do you mean the following range?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
1)Is that range will be change if depending on open raiser position?
2)do you think calling with (AA, KK) has move EV than 3betting VS UTG?

Besides that, I would like to play NL10. Is that same with NL2?

Thanks.

Hi,

you got the range right. maybe you want to 3bet AA and KK and call the rest. or 3bet QQ and JJ too if utg is really loose.

1) the later the position the more we call. the later our position the more we call.

2) depends on how wide UTG is, if hes tight then 3betting AA KK is better, if hes loose then calling will be better to function as a bluffcatcher, which is the same as QQ and JJ. however if he does not fold to 3bets then its better to 3bet it directly.

NL10 compared to NL2, the ranges will be wider and more aggressive 3bets and 4bets. this is the trend as you progress up in limits.
