Taht second hand I played poorly, but I also made a straight and payed him out.

Otherwise I'm feeling fine (so far) on 0,15/0,30 :)

1) Nicely played.
Like you, I would also make river bet and call down BB bet.

2) I would raise flop, after 3-bet I would call t down. But in the end you cant do nothing about, if SB happens to be seven or two spades. I wouldn´t fold river.

Good to hear that you´re doing fine on the higher limit. Trying to join you a.s.a.p. But today I got a little tilt when calling station won twice with lucky river card.


1) ok. you can't do anything against it :/

2) way to passiv. raise the flop, bet the turn (or calldown if he bets) and check/call the river :/
if he check/raises the turn you can fold in my opinion.


Tnx a lot both of you. Kaitz20, waiting for you ;)

At second hand I was almost 100% sure that he has me beaten, but I just can't fold hand like that. I agree that I should be more aggressive, but on flop like this one, I just wasn't able to be.

Any other opinion is welcome.

Why? U would still have outs here?

1) Played fine. But the better option would be to call the flop and raise the turn with your strong made hand, which should be your default line HU. This way you get more value from draws and worse made hands, and you can easily fold to a turn 3bet.

2)raise the flop, bet the turn (or call and raise the turn if he has high WTS). CiRith, you wont get very far in poker if you fold the nutflushdraw to a checkraise on the turn ;)


you may be right.. I really need to work on seeing what I have (like Korn can't see straight or sees straight where no are *lol*)


The first hand is kind of hard because it doesnt show the bets u should have made a very strong raise preflop and a strong bet in the flop to scare aways those draws...

The second hand u limped way too much there was straigh draw, and possibly a flop flush u went too far going showdown if u didnt get the flush in the turn u should have folded because obviously villain had something strong...

Unnecesary trouble. what was the outcome? he had flush and u got the straight in the river and still lost?

Just my opnion

So in a headsup situation wenn hero has a AA/KK/QQ and maybe JJ. Flop shows nothing scary and Villian donks. The standard line here would be to call the bet and raise turn? And u are 100% sure that u have to fold every single time if the turn gets 3bet by Villian with these hands?

If u are sure thats the case i gtg take a note =)


Thats the standard line with strong hands wilm. I often raise the flop if the board is very drawheavy because I hate to raise the turn if it completes any draws.

If you fold the turn to a 3-bet depends on reads but normally the opponment won't 3-bet with a weaker hand than yours so you can fold. If the guys 3-bets often on the turn its a calldown so no need to take a note ;)

bl1nd: A Ulek said you can't fold the turn at the 2nd hand. You have the nutflushdraw :)


Yes, that's excatly how it finished.
