Loose big pot otr

With 4-to-a-flush on board and us having the second weakest flush card I prefer xbehind.

Hello kerith,

this is a huge overplay on the river.

Flop, turn - probably OK

River - you are absolutely crushed even by his calling range. To better understanding try to look at this spot from villain position. OK, this guy bet twice to me, OTR there are 4 cards to flush, board is paired so FH are possible and he bets again. I´m not happy to continue with weaker flush. I´m definitely cannot continue with even worse hands.

And now you are beting river with the weakest flush (he need only one spade to beat you) and after his raise which looks very strong you are shoving. He can never call you with worse. In fact you can maybe force to fold some better flushed if he raise it, but I don´t think it was your intention and I don´t like it.

oh boy

So I can see I have made a terrible mistake, good to know now
I have to think long and readjust and make a note of this before foing to the tables again.

I see I'd do wel lto learn about ranges, any advice?

Thanks for the feedback, by the way! This really helps me.

Watch w34z3l's Walkthrough series.

We all making big mistakes

As nitrol mentioned and I already write it in another topic, Walkthrough series would be very helpful for you. Probably the easist way for you should be to make deposit to some poker room via pokerstrategy. You receive bonus 10 strategy points for every day when you gain at least one strategy point so it´s really easy to gain silver status in less than 2 week.

You can also try to make some preflop ranges in equilab. Try to post them in a forum and people will tell you how to improve it.

I was looking for some videos for bronze and you can try this series from confidant91

I saw first two videos and it´s probably good if you have no idea where to start. However, with all respect to other guys and their work, which is great in my opinion, W34z3l is for me the best instrcutor for micro and small stakes here on PSGY. Not only tell you what to do but also explain deeply why, which is extremly important for beginners.

+1 for w34z3l and confidant91. Good content, well structured.

Flop: X on flop (and probably x/c), a lot of FD, TP and other draws are calling you down.

Turn: I think is ok

River: x behind on River, you don't beat anything but a bluff. As played on river.... fold after villiain's x/r

check back the river for sure, when people raise you on a mono board be afraid..... be very afraid

try to think more about the relative hand strength compared to the board texture as opposed to your actual hand strength

e.g. 99 on A92 it much much different in hand strength to 99 on 9TJ for example

in addition to the mono board it is paired too.
