Sorry guys no reads, just ran out of Poker-tracker free trial :f_biggrin:

I play 2 tables and and observing and writing notes frequently but when I save my hand histories and send them to my email it can be hard to remember which villains had which notes I am trying to figure out a way how to incorporate my notes/remember which villains were doing what. I may have to make an actual hand history note after a hand lol instead of just saving my hand histories lol.If i can remember the player was competent not too loose or too tight.

This is an interesting one. You see, you can’t really play it like you did as you can’t beat hardly anything for value. What you have to do here is turn your hand into a big bluff, but, to do that, you are going to need to fold out some big hand.

I’d have bet the turn and barrelled the river... Well... I wouldn’t have bothered with any of this...

This is a $2 game so you are best off just folding this preflop. This would be a good call in a $100 game because you’ll be able to fold out overpairs at times, but in these games you just want to keep it simple with a preflop fold.

... I played on an Indian site once, only Indians are allowed to play there so I played through a proxy. Anyway, I had no hud or anything so I used an address book to write quick notes by hand, and it worked a treat. Really though, you need the software.

Start with 100bb stack would be better as well. Than you have better implied odds if you are calling a raise. On a 5x raise I would fold almost always in a full ring game. As played I would check it down. You have some showdown value on turn and river and is tough to let him fold a flush.

Flush is autofold in this spot, do not be absurd.

That's true, but than you need to be sure you deal with a player that can fold flushes. I doubt most villains on NL2 can do that with in mind youcan represent full houses and the A high flush.
