Hello!

Poker Stars, $0.08/$0.16 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: $22.16 (138.5 bb)
BB: $16.66 (104.1 bb)
UTG: $25.73 (160.8 bb)
MP: $16 (100 bb)
CO: $21.28 (133 bb)
Hero (BTN): $16.88 (105.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with 5 5
UTG calls $0.16, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.33, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.17

Flop: ($0.90) 5 T 9 (2 players)
UTG bets $0.32, Hero raises to $0.96, UTG calls $0.64

Turn: ($2.82) 6 (2 players)
UTG bets $1.56, Hero raises to $5.12, UTG raises to $18.05, Hero calls $10.47

River: ($34) J (2 players)

Preflop: I actually didn't realize that the UTG open limped, so I made a raise with the sizing I use for an open raise on the BTN.

Flop: Hit a set. When he decided to donk, I believe I have to raise that flop. Probably I should do it a bit bigger, maybe like 1,20$.

Turn: 87 got there, but I think he doesn't have it that often. Flushdraw didn't hit, so I belive I still have to raise his bet. When he 3bet, not sure if I can fold the set. If he would have TT or 99, he would probably go for a check/raise or bet/3bet on the flop. I decided to call because expect to have enough equity against his range, anyway.

UTG: 50/17/12 (VPIP/PFR/H)

Hah before I saw your comments I look at flop and think $1.20 is better:f_biggrin: It's not super crucial because unfortunately we can't really raise big enough to jam turn, so will always be playing 3 streets if he calls flop raise. However this way we get a lot more value from his draws as can bet bigger on turn for same pot size %.

Preflop also I think you should make it 3bb/4bb when he limped.

Not folding turn to the 3b. He limped, he's a fish he can have combo draw, pair+draw, 2p, played AA like a spaz etc

I would raise bigger flop. He already chose a donkey line. Limp/call preflop, donk flop. Then just raise big for value. Otherwise you give him 25% potodds.

About the hand, it's a bit weird that he donk/calls flop, but then wants to stack off turn. He could have 66, or 87. However, I still think he can just play randomly weird, have 2 pairs and maybe some draws or even just TPTK, so I think it's a get it in moment on the turn.

It's hard to range the fish. Sometimes he shows 87 or 66 or something, but sometimes they have T6 or some random hand. And I think it's a +EV turn call.

I think it is very important for you to pay attention when playing. Sometimes the right raise preflop can make it easierfor you to put all money in the pot on 2 street s instead of 3.
Raise bigger on flop and get it in on the turn and do not regret it if villain shows up with a hand that beats you. He is capable of doing fancy things with a lot more worse hands.

I think we all agree with my initial analyse of the hand. I should have pay more attention preflop and raise bigger, then I should have raise the flop bigger and I can't give up on the turn.
