1) 1/2 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (5 handed)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy Elephant 0.49 by www.pokerstrategy.com.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7♦, 7♥
MP3 calls, CO raises, BU folds, Hero calls, BB calls, MP3 calls.

Flop: (8.00 SB) 4♣, 3♠, 5♠ (4 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, MP3 raises, CO folds, Hero 3-bets, MP3 calls.

Turn: (7.00 BB) T♦ (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 calls.

River: (9.00 BB) 3♥ (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 raises (All-In).

Final Pot: 11.00 BB

Results follow (highlight to see):
Hero shows two pairs, sevens and threes (7d 7h)
MP3 shows two pairs, fours and threes (Qh 4s)

Hero wins with two pairs, sevens and threes (7d 7h)

I think this is fine. Should I play different if MP3 had more money? Can I call up to the river if he raises again any of the streets?

Lucky river but I think it's well played. River would be check or call with any other card.

All these hands come from a big losing session, so if you see me tilting it's normal :P

1) i think i would 3-bet preflop as well. as played: on the flop i would try a check/raise to protect as good as i can. freecard would be horrible but imo it´s worth a try. if i get 3-bet i get the money in and don´t fold anymore if mp is that short

2) nh.
@henne: i think i would bet it most of the time. he showed absolutely no strengh. normally he would have c/r an 8 on the flop and maybe donked a T on the turn.
and wtf was he thinking in this hand... A5 ? nh sir !

2) Would you still bet river if the card were A-J?

i think i would but it´s very close imo. it´s no mistake to check behind. i just believe that he would have donked most likely if he had improved... but i´m really not sure here.
where is cirith when you need him ^^

//edit: mh the longer i think about it... i will have another look at it tomorrow. quite tired now. btw: i missread the hand a bit. i think i wouldn´t bet if a J appears on the river


1) #2 frzl.

2) I bet the river unimpoved except if a :club:, 6 or J comes.
