Hi brainstorm87

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: Why are your raises generally so small? In every hand so far you are either min raising or heavily underbetting. I think your bet sizes could use some work.

Given the odds we get on the river and the fact that most draws miss I can't see us folding.

Can you please brief me a bit on proper bet-sizing pre-flop and post-flop?

From what I have seen preflop you are doing fine.

Postflop on the other hand they seem a bit small.

Let's take this example here.

You have a pot of 35 BB and a bet of 5 BB and a call of 5 BB. That's a total pot of 45 BB.

You only raise 12.5 and thus your opponent has to call just 7.5 BB in a 65.5 BB pot which gives him 11% pot odds. Those are some pretty good odds.

But besides given him the odds you are losing value from pairs because you are keeping the pot smaller and scare cards can come around.

So our plan, at least from my POV, would be to raise bigger on the flop and ship the turn.

A raise of 30 BB would allow us to have a pot of 95 BB on the turn with just 50ish BB behind allowing our opponent to call with just about the same range and maximizing value versus pairs/draws.
