varaiance


did I even play them well?


Both well played imo. You got your chips in with monsters. Like vladnz said, it's just variance, you were outdrawn.

1st one probably not, he probably had you beat with the call on the flop.

2nd you couldn't do anything about it. He flopped the nut FH. You played correctly.


Both are soooo standard, especially at 2c/5c.


lol yeah i was just on tilt =/

both played OK... but these probably aren't the hands where your leaks are... these are just bad luck.

1. bet/call flop rather than check/raise. you were the preflop aggressor, too often he checks behind here. you get more value from bad hands like TPTK/TPxK with a bet. if he raises you, you can call and check/raise the turn.

2. raise a bit more on the turn on the second hand, you don't want to be forced to bet over pot size on the river...

both played well.

I would suggest that you regularly post hands in the handposting forum. All situations you are not sure about. You don´t have to loose a lot money in this hands. It´s all about making the right decisions in every situation.
copy/paste all hands you are´nt sure about during a session into a document and post them after the session in the forum.

Best regards,
