he could have like KdQd, just barreling with AK, and AA is always a possibilityI call a river shove though, tough for him to have a better hand and a lot of better one pairs (KQ/AK) will check on the river looking to induce on the missed diamonds

Nice month, JonAre you going to play more 10nl now?

Thanks buddy.Hopefully. About to take a few shots, and do a 3 BI stop/loss. We'll see how it goes.

[KingJames]

sweet, glglPlayed more than twice as many hands today as I did in November. I also lost less, bink. Ship

Going a little insane from all of 2-outers I've been going through.

[KingJames]

It had felt like forever since I got someone to stick it in drawing dead; it's a good feeling. Although when he was deciding on calling the flop I said to my roommmate, "let him have 66 one time to make this easy" Then the turn peeled and I laughed a little

He timed down forever while I pooped my pants in nit mode then he finally checked to me and I checked it back.

Villain is basically unknown: 31/23/6AF over 26 hands. The donk/call, call is a flush draw most of the time here, right?

[SuperJon]

I would think if he had a FD on the flop, he would've 3b your raise. But maybe not.You also lose to AT on the river, which play it the same way. I think it's a good fold. You might want to stove your hand against AT, flushes, and maybe include a few combos of bluffs like 78 and JQ just to see how it looks.

On another note, James.I tried using that HH converter, and it's not working for me.

I got the HHs from copilot which might change them a bit; then I went to the leggo site and converted it... I dunno.

UTG is 17/11 so his range is likely 66+ and big suited cards; I think if he has an over pair he will c-bet, but I can likely stack him with a donk or a c.rThe CO is a 49/10 fish who is the most likely to have a flush draw (assume he calls almost all suited cards)- his AF is 2 but I don't know if he's the type to bet a flush draw in a mw pot if the pfr checks... so I'm more inclined to donk.The button is a TAG reg, 23/19 and no real reads. I assume he will check behind a majority of his range if checked to. I think he'll be a good J (KJs or AJ) as well as his draws. He's got a wide range imo; lot of pairs, SCs and even some trashier hands as he'll be IP vs the fish.So I went with the donk. Then the fish calls; I assume his range to be flush draws, any J, probably AX gutters 56 and even 57 or 67. Also, my donking range would be like 33, 44, 56ss, A3/4/5ss and that's about it; cool?The As falling is interesting as it eliminates the AXss draws, and may give him a pair on a AX gutter or even two pair if he has AJ A2/3/4/5So now I'm lost; bet/call, bet 1/2pot/fold, c.c, c.f? crai? I feel as though bet 3/4pot/calling is best. But only bc I don't want to give him a free card, or let him get to the river with a J and random spade. I feel if we bet/call, when he jams it's bc he has a flush, or AJ but I dunno... we prob get it in behind most of the time; lost...Merge, $0.05/$0.10 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 PlayersLeggoPoker.com - Hand History ConverterUTG: $10MP: $10.75CO: $10.12BTN: $10.84SB: $2.90Hero (BB): $12.19Pre-Flop: 4 4 dealt to Hero (BB)UTG raises to $0.35, MP folds, CO calls $0.35, BTN calls $0.35, SB folds, Hero calls $0.25Flop: ($1.45) 4 3 J (4 Players)Hero bets $1.45, UTG folds, CO calls $1.45, BTN foldsTurn: ($4.35) A (2 Players)$8.32 effective, btw

Let's say you bet $2.50 on the turn, and he ships. We'll have to call $5.82 into $15.17 so around 3:1.If his range is flushes and AJ, then we have 39% equity, and calling is slightly +EV. Obviously, if we include hands like A3 and A4, it becomes even more +EV.Now if he only raises with flushes (most likely scenario), bet/calling is -EV. Is there any shame in x/c'ing the turn? I know we allow him to check back some hands, and see a free card. I remember reading somewhere that in spots where there's 3 to a flush on the turn, the likelihood of the 4th flush card coming on the river is a lot less than people think.Interesting hand.

Well the shot at 10nl started off pretty solid, up 6 BIs the first day. Mostly due to 2 set over sets. KK > QQ, and AA > AKSince then it's been the complete opposite. Coolers galore, and some spewage. Oh well.

[CobaltBlue]

Bodog games have been super fishy since going to anonymous. Like, I've never seen as many ridiculous punts at 2/4 and 3/6 in such a span of several days. The only drawback is that variance has increased since I can't game select quite as well as before and the games are so LAGgy (so many people like to just pot/pot/pot).
