U really missplayed this hand. Did u read any of articles or watched some videos? Im asking cause it seems u have some leaks u will have to work on if u want to beat the game.

First dont cold-call vs BU but rather 3bet or fold. In this case u have a strong hand that is ahead of his range so u can 3bet and play on from there.

As played what is your reasoning for a donk bet? AS default you should c/r with such a strong hand and get more value . Its not so bad if the BB is a fish and u want to trap him but i would then B/3B on the flop with such a strong hand.

The turn 3bet is really close and most of low stakes opponents wont raise u with a T :heart: most of the time so it depends how aggro he is. After u get capped on turn your river donk is just awful .

Even if u were somehow ahead on turn which i doubt u loose now to 99,55, KQ,KK, QQ, so just C/C the river and hope he overplayed T :heart:

Thanks, this is why I come to the forums. I normally use the starting hands chart, but I couldn't have here as it says to fold with one raiser. So I don't know what happened there.

The donk bet was a mistake, and is a frequent mistake on the flop on my part. I've not noticed this until today (I'm currently reviewing my hands from the past three days); I seem to enjoy dropping a bet when I'm on S or FD, when -as you and the articles say- check raise gets more value. (I have read the basic and bronze articles, but it's sometimes difficult to remember what you should do when you're at the table.)

With regards to the river, you are saying that I should have c/f?

Well to be honest u are beaten there almost always but as this is micro limit people sometimes miss play their hands so i would check/call the river because folding could be a bigger mistake then calling 1BB to win a 14BB pot.

Hi!

Gape pretty much said it all.

dont overlimp against 0-1 players in the game...raise or fold! in this case easy 3bet

Flop is c/r like said but if you dont think he will cbet I dont mind donking to prevent them from checking behind...so either c/r or b/3b. Just bet/call is way too weak with TPGK+decent FD

Turn absolutely no reason to 3bet since they will often just call with worse flushes so its either A :heart: or a bluff...calldown

River...dont fold good hands in big pots on microstakes,sure players are passive but they can also be very irrational at times.1:14 is enough to hope for that
