[Closed] NL10 - zibbygt vol. 1 (SSS)

Hi zibbygt,

Do you have stack sizes for these hands? Since you didn't post them I'm going to assume you had $2 in each case.

Hand 1 - Raise to $0.60 preflop. Good fold on the flop.

Hand 2 - Push the flop with your overpair. A $0.40 bet into a $1.35 pot isn't nearly enough to chase away the draws. I'm assuming you have $1.60 left in your stack, so you have less than 1.5x the pot.

Hand 3 - With only $1.35 left in your stack, the all-in to the re-raise was correct. You should re-buy to $2 before you get that low though.

Hand 4 - Raise to $0.60 preflop (4xBB + 1x for the limper and 1x since you are OOP in the SB.) With your min-raise, you are giving the BB good odds to call along with the Button...and you don't want a 3-way pot. As played, you played the flop well.

Hand 5 - Fold preflop. T6 is a junk hand...even when it is suited. As played, fold the flop. You aren't getting the pot odds to chase your 5 outs. After calling though, I might check-raise that turn if you think CO will bet again.

IMHO,
Kknight

Hand 1.)
Preflop raise to $0.60 after 2 Limper in front of you.

Hand 2.)
Your Conti-bet is way to small, you allow any draw here to stay cheap in the hand. Bet more on the Flop around $0.90 here or better in this spot, since Straight- and Flushdraws are possible. Move all-In here. Your stack is only slightly bigger then the pot.

Hand 3.)
If you have a Reststack of $1.60 here you have to fold after that re-raise. Since your Stack is to big in comparison to your original bet

Hand 4.)
Raise preflop to $0.50 you do not want to allow a hand that good outdraw you (any Ace, a Pocketpair) to see the flop cheaply. Besides postflop you have to play out of position.

Hand 5.)
Fold Preflop, you only can hope for Two Pair here, you have no Straight Value and the Flushvalue of this hand is very low as well.
You were really lucky here on the Turn.

General advise
Please re-read the articles, stick to them and keep posting sample hands to improve your game. When you mastered to play accordingly to the PokerStrategy Articles you can start working on your advanced play.

Berliner,

His stack was only $1.35 in this hand. When he raised all-in it was a raise to $1.35...so his re-raise all-in was correct (original raise of $0.40 leaving only $0.95 or <2.5x original raise in his stack.)

Also, in hand 4 shouldn't he raise to $0.60 preflop since he is OOP in the SB?

Thanks,
Kknight

You´re right with both points. I missed that in the first run, since I was in a kind of hurry.

BTW: I send you an important email for me. I hope its not offending you.

Hi zibbygt!

Please stick to the posting guidelines.

Concerning your hands: I agree with Kknight and Berliner1982.

Good luck at the tables!

Well I posted those hands because its not good to post hands which are all by the book ... When I am playing poker I do some decisions on my own to ... Some first raises I missed when I am click, I sometimes click to much or to less ♦

But with your strategy you will be more likely to be broke, then with playing by the book.

I dont know which part is not understandable ... I play by the book and I am doing fine atm but this hands was hands where I want to hear opinion ... I ll post only hands with all in at prefloop I will not do nothin... I want to learn more about floop/turn/river play ....

Hi zibbygt,

I don't think Puschkin was talking about WHICH hands you posted, but HOW MANY you posted. It is easier to handle the thread if you only post 1 or 2 hands in each thread unless they are all dealing with the same situation (i.e. 3 hands with an overpair on a paired board or something.)

I hope that helps!!

Then I misunderstood your posting and I apologize, zibbygt.
