I am so sorry i still dont have propriate tools to post hands here as you guys have. I cant afford it :( need a new computer,new monitor..

please dont lose nerves with me. lets go to poker.

preflop: i raised from earliest position:10,10, shorthanded table. BB 3 bets me, and i somehow just called,maybe this is a huge mistake already.

flop: 9,5,2 i c/r him he just called,which is a sign he most likely have just overcards,not overpairs. i dont remember colors,i think it was rainbow.

turn:7 nothing much changed. i bet he called.

river: K problems started. he check and i didnt have guts to bet it again. Would you bet against AQ,Aj? Should he donk himself that river with a K or is that move not well balanced,like you said me in i think similar case,firsttsunami. He had K,Q.

hey nemiren, its no problem :)

depending on which site you play at your hand histories may be saved automatically on your computer.

If you can find where those files are saved, remember the table name and search the .txt file for the hand. Then you can copy and paste your hand data here. That will convert them into a format which is easy to post.

Its true, with a program its easier to find the hand, but theres always another way.

Ok, on to your hand.

You open raise from EP at 6max, BB 3-bets. We can 4-bet or call depending on his hand range. As a standard line for full run calling is a fine option. At 6-max I would tend to cap.

Your flop raise is good., turn bet is good. On the river the K is of course bad for us, but the good part is that he didn't lead into us. A lot of times players will just bet with a K.

Checking back isn't a big mistake and this card or an ace are the ones we should consider a check/back against his 3-bet range. On such a board he won't have a lot of worse hands to pay us off. The pot is quite large though so if he likes to show down we should bet against AQ/AJ (as you point out).

In a nut shell, bet against the loose/SD bound guys, check against the tighter guys.

I agree to datsmanahme. Normally you don't get any more value out off your opponents range as AJ AQ will fold. What kind of draw should you have on this board and he has shown strenght with his 3bet and people use to play very honest and just checkraise if they have something. So you actually can't expect to get paid by AQ AJ but since you play lowstakes, people tend to call a lot too loose and against unknown i would just bet as Kx very often donks into and you'Re mostlikely still ahead. :)
