flop & turn you played well but river you have to fold because you didn't hit your draws

Raise preflop to isolate the limper.
Its a strong draw, not a monster one.Raising it on the flop is fine.You have to fold on this river, the way you played it though

indeed, preflop raise or fold against 1 limper

youre draw is not that strong with second nutflush + gutshot so reraising flop IP would be overplaying youre hand


indeed, preflop raise or fold against 1 limper

I started to play strictly by the BSS and against a limper I have to call, do I not?

I like flop and turn, dont know about river. On river it looks like a blockbet, too small for a bluff.


Start out raising pf.
You can isolate limper and play ip and on that flop there is no problem betting strong on the flop and turn
SInce it is limped pot I like how you played it.
