Doesn't matter which stakes. We mostly evaluate all of them.
Hi guys, what do you think about this hand?
villain 50/12/2.3 52% DB flop, 55% Fcbet, 37% turn agg, 47% river agg. and had won all his pots by aggression without SD.
I bet the flop for value, probably I could bet a little larger like .80/.85 and he quickly calls. I'm putting him in any pair and any weak straight draw. I guess he problably db with JK and Qx.
On the turn I hit top 2 and made my big mistake on the hand imo. I just call his donkbet because at the time I thougt the board is very wet and I'm oop. I'm putting him in TJ, TK, J7-J9, maybe JK and some FD. I won't like to see a river with any spades, A, 9, J (18 cards I guess). So I should raise for protection and don't call to pot control, besides that with this bet we have a weird SPR on the river if I choose to bet for value.
The river isn't good for me, improves a lot of villain's range (Jx types of hands) and flush draws. As the villain is kind of a bluffer guy, when he made a small bet I read it as a bet for value with straight or flush and I fold. Maybe am I overthinking?

I think I played fine this one, maybe except for my betsizing on the river.
villain 38/18/2.5 50% db, 55% turn agg, 20% river agg, 30% wtsd, 50% w$sd.
I opened by mistake, I thought I was on the HJ. lol.
I call the flop because I had OESD. I'm putting him in with any pair, any straight or flush draw and maybe a random hand.
On the turn I think I should call again because of implied odds, pot odds are 26% and I have 16% of chances of improve my hand. So I don't need to extract a lot of money to be a +EV play I guess.
The river isn't good for me, but the villain checked to me so I decide to bluff. I'm putting him in missed draws or with a weak showdown value.
What do you think about all the hand?

What do you think about this hand?
CO is a fish 25/6 and BU is a slightly winner 17/7 (25/13 from BU) both over 1.5k hands.
I think the BU is isoraising with a wide range and I could 3bet for value. But he folds 88% to 3bet, so I decided not 3bet to don't turn my hand into bluff also calling the fish may come together.
Unfortunetly the fish folds and I completly missed the flop, but the flop is the dryest possible and the villain has 74% of flop cbet but only 31% of turn cbet. I think the villain will cbet almost 100% percent of his range in this board but he is "one fire" guy, so I decided to float him oop.
The turn is good for me and I gained some equity with one over and now a gutshot. I decided to check to see what he does. When he checks I think he don't have anything and I decided to bluff the river.
The river is good for me because now there is less Kx combos so I keep my plan and betted. Was good line? Was a good betsizing?

what do you think about the hand? I didn't cbet because he wasn't folding a lot (44% wtsd). was a good stab on the turn with FD + gutshot + 1 over? I guess I have to call the mini-raise because I have good odds and a decent equity.
villain 63/3/0.5, 38% Fcbet, c/r turn 5%, river agg 18%, wtsd 44%, w$sd 41% in 850 hands.

Preflop: Hero is CO with A♦, 9♠
MP3 raises to $0,35, Hero raises to $1,00, BU folds, SB calls $0,95, BB folds, MP3 calls $0,65.
Flop: ($3,10) 3♥, 9♣, 4♥ (3 players)
SB checks, MP3 checks, Hero bets $1,50, SB calls $1,50, MP3 calls $1,50.
Turn: ($7,60) 5♥ (3 players)
SB checks, MP3 checks, Hero checks.
River: ($7,60) 7♠ (3 players)
SB checks, MP3 checks, Hero checks.
Final Pot: $7,60
MP3- good reg 21/17 ; WTSD 22 ; WSD 59 ; ORL 39 1,6k hands
SB - fish
bluff 3bet pre - fish decides to jump in and MP3 calls with range - maybe 99-QQ , AQ
cbet to remove the equilty of probable high cards of both plrs.
Turn & river : here comes hard for me - I put MP3 on TT-QQ and maybe A:h: Q ♥: , but after the check on the river I'm sure that he hasn't got them cause he would extract value from straights .
So since he has TT-QQ the most of the time , I just had to shove to represent a flush / straight against him .
1st problem - I had no balls
2nd problem - the fish may come up with some 6x type of hand ...
What would be the bet sizing if I decide to bet river ?
villain 20/4/1.6, 50% Fcbet, 10% c/r turn, wtsd 28%, w$sd 63%, 29% river agg in 800 hands
I think he calls the flop with wide range, any pair, any straight draw like T7, TK, KQ, AT and FD. When he raises on turn I think he do it with a polarized range, complete air (draws) and the nuts like boats and Jx.
OOP I guess I should fold every single time, but IP I tend to call and fold to any reasonable size bet on the river (close to 1/2 pot bet). Is that ok?
