MP: 28/20/9.8/137hands

Ive played vs this TAG a lot on 5/Tc in the past. Don't know why it shows i only have 137 hands on him I definitely have seem him a ton and for years at my tables.

BB: 57/25/8,3/65hands

standard fish and the 1 out of 3 main reasons we were there at that table.

was i too aggressive with my turn raise to his donk bet? All i could think of is that he never really noticed how good i really am or he doesn't care and just play the way he does at 5/Tc with his Qx .. Im sure hes good enough to c/r with a set+ , and due to my 3bet I dont think he would donk with anything below Qx.

he can have a Tx of diamonds that picked up a flush draw as well, and Qx that might or might not have gotten a two pair. Anyhow, I think that the raise on the turn is correct, because you can also kick out the BB. On the river, I think that a couple of cards like J:d or K:d or a Q can make us check behind (maybe not a Q), since they greatly improve his range, and also would reduce his x/c range, I don't think he'll x/c with a lone T if the jack or king hit

It's because you haven't configured your software properly.

Ok, just making sure.

When I first read the hand history, I though, well, don't try to make sense of their strange betting. From turn and on - calldown. Don't ask me why exactly, except that both preflop and flop went to three bets and you are still donked into by a TAG.

Too much turn aggression is one of my own biggest problems.

Is he playing loads and loads of tables? cause I've noticed alot of multitablers, me included sometimes, just miss the action and donks at random. Think your play on the turn is fine, not to aggressive at all. His bet is just weird, unless youre one of those who 3b any showdownable hand on the flop ip to check behind on later streets ;)

Those pot numbers don't make any sense to me. Were you guys super deep?
Because it looks like it when in on the flop/turn with that action, just can't tell what is going on

lol the monthly nl player

I mean, really. They are in separate forums, I don't see how you keep getting mixed up (I know it sounds too aggressive, but I am asking seriously. Maybe there is a forum option that simply throws all the threads and it only shows the first "subforum" they are in, and therefore you only see "Open forum for hand discussion" and you cannot see the "FL" part. in that case, maybe something should be said to the global moderators in order to improve this)

if i remember correctly he used to play 10 - 12 tables on the lower limits like the 5/T. im hoping he doesnt do that for his sake at 25/50c. But ya thats what i thought too why is he donking on the turn unless he lost the action..

@YohaNN7

im usually pretty good at slowing down on too much aggression (unless im getting coollered heavily) But this was simply in my mind too many Qx alone , if he had 3bet the turn i would have called down but since there was no 3bet i was 100% sure i was getting that pot.
