Hi everyone,
I've been dipping my toes in and out of poker for a few years now, have decided to give it another go and going to try and post one hand a day on here as a target. I've been rewatching a lot of training videos, especially w34z3ls stuff. I've been mostly playing NL16 and NL25 on pokerstars, but had a bit of a bad run so I've gone down to NL10, where there seems to be a lot more recreationals. Anyways on with the hand... (Go easy on me)
Only had 6 hands on villain who was 17/0
Preflop: A mandatory squeeze, but maybe I should have gone bigger to move out some of the callers.
Flop: Hit the set, but its a very dangerous flop. Again perhaps I should bet bigger here, but I tend to go a bit smaller when it's an inflated pot like a 4way 3bet pot.
Turn: Not a nice card, villain could have called with QQ, AK, AT, AJ, KQ, so a lot of combos have us beat here. KJ and KT maybe would call the squeeze but probably would have raised the flop. Decide to x/c if I get a decent price to improve.
River: Decide to donk here as I hope Ax will feel committed. Would x/c (or x/f) be an option here?
Any thoughts on the hand? Thanks!
