No Limit Hold'em $0.05/$0.10
PokerStars
7 players
Formatted by pokercopilot.com - Mac OS X hand history analysis and tracking

Stacks:
UTG - UTG ($5.10)
UTG+1 - UTG+1 ($11.51)
MP - MP ($10.20)
CO - Hero ($10.14)
BTN - BTN ($4.00)
SB - SB ($8.13)
BB - BB ($4.24)

No info on the villain, only his stack that suggests he's not a pro.

Preflop: ($0.14, 7 players) Hero is CO with A♥ K♣
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.40, 1 fold, SB calls $0.36, 1 fold

Flop: 4♥ 5♦ 3♠ ($0.90, 2 players)
SB bets $0.40, Hero calls $0.40

Here I thought the call was good since he would mostly be betting with overpairs, and I had 6 outs to TP and a gutshot.

Turn: A♦ ($1.70, 2 players)
SB bets $0.80, Hero raises to $2.40, SB raises to $4.00, 1 fold, Uncalled bet of $1.60 returned to SB

After he re-raises me, I guess I'm not winning this hand with TP. But I don't know if in this case I'm already pot committed and should go all in...

Hi MrBeast,

Preflop: looks fine but why do we open 4x from CO. Do we have huge fish behind or do you open larger for value (bet sizing tell)?

Postflop: That small donk can also be weaker Ax and other random hands. It shouldn't be just overpairs.

If we raise the turn I think it's hard to let it go however I don't think we need to raise the turn because on such a scare card we can scare off a lot of weaker hands.
