Hey Guys!
I'm back again, and starting to post my hands here. I had a little break about checking the forum and runitonce.com.
Thanks in advance for your help.
BB: 33/25/10 Fold to cbet: 25 (66 hands)
Hero: 26/21 fold to 3bet: 87 (while playing this session)
Preflop: I assume He 3bets a lot of hands CO v BB, like small suited Ax hands, dominatod broadway cards like KTo KJo, KQo, QTo/s QJo/s, even KQs. Sometimes suited connectors like 56s 57s 67s 68s 78s 79s 89s T9s JTs and stuff.
Flop: We have a lot more Jx combos in our PFR range, than his BB calling range against me. His possible Jx combos: JQs JTs KJs AJo/s. Our possible Jx combos: J9s JTo/s QJo/s KJo/s AJo/s. My plan was to bet 2 or 3 streets, because we're blocking strong Jx type hands like KJ QJ, and I think He's capable to fold JTs QJs on the river. On the other hand, his range contains all pp-s, which sometimes x/f flop, but almost always folds on the turn if not improved. Subsequently I would bet about 0.48-0.5
Turn: 9d didn't helped his flop calling range, unless he x/called with 9s8s 7s9s Ts9s or As9s. But sometimes He 3bets these combos, particularly against me. All in all I think 9d is more likely a blank card, so shot the 2nd barrel. I think betsizing doesn't have to be so big, because He always fold missed pp-s almost against any sizing, and He always calls when picked up some equity with the 9d.
River: 3s is kinda unlucky for us, because his range contains a whole lot flushes (AsTs As9s As8s As7s, etc. ) and just a few combos of Jx type hands ( JTs JQs JKs AJo/s)
In my opinion this is a clear xback on the river, but I'm interested about how do you see ranges here, and how do you see my threads on different streets.
Thank You!

Since this hand I collected few more hands about him.
Cbet OOP f/t/r: 92(12) 100(5) 25(4)

HJ: $10
CO: $10
BN: $7.03
SB: $10.05
BB: $5
Hero raises to $0.30, CO folds, BN calls $0.30, SB folds, BB folds
He can play this line with either A8, 99-JJ, and probably draws. I decided to call.
How do You play this hand Guys?
Thank You!

BB: $10.49 (Hero)
UTG: $32.39
UTG raises to $0.35, HJ folds, CO folds, BN folds, SB folds, Hero calls $0.25
All in all, I think check/raising is better here than check/calling OOP.
I'm pretty unsure about this hand. I interested about Your conceptions and Your advices.
Thank You!

Obviously no way to fold, but don't know what should I do: call or raise? Turn diamond card kills the action and I can hope only for checking down.. If I shove now, He won't fold any Adxx or Kx.
What are Your opinion??

Dec. 29, 2013 | 8:19 a.m.
Well, I played this hand based on pretty bad conceptions... Thanks the answers!
Dec. 27, 2013 | 10:02 a.m.
I defined a narrow value range for him. I except him to just check/call flop with strong hands because of his passive image, and then check/raise or check/call turn, and donk the river, as passive recreational players do. This kinda aggressive move on the flop suggested me He's bluffing/semibluffing in a decent amount of the time.

UTG: $18.08

CO: $3.19
BN: $10 (Hero)
SB: $10.05
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO folds, Hero raises to $0.25, SB folds, BB calls $0.15
However He check raised me with a huge size, and He could shove the turn comfortably.
What do you think guys? Does He capable to bluff this texture? Does his extraordinary aggression mean He has a really strong hand?

BN: $12.40
SB: $10 (Hero)
HJ raises to $0.20, CO folds, BN calls $0.20, Hero raises to $0.95, BB folds, HJ calls $0.75, BN folds
I decided to shove, because I don't know his bluffing tendencies, I'm not sure if He bluffs rivers enough.
Any idea to play the hand more profitably?

You described this situation well! Now I understand why should I cbet in this spot! Thank You!
Nov. 20, 2013 | 8:16 a.m.
Thanks! This protection betting range - 5x/7x, 88-JJ - seems to me a bit optimistic.
On the other hand I'm scared of playing out of position. I expect him a lot of dominated aces bescause of his passive stat.

UTG raises to $0.30, HJ folds, CO folds, BN calls $0.30, Hero raises to $1.20, BB folds, UTG calls $0.90, BN calls $0.90
Was this the right play I played the hand?

UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.30, CO folds, SB folds, BB calls $0.20
If I bet turn when the 3rd diamond comes down, my hand range either contains pairs, and draws / pair+draws.
So, I expect him to call with AdXx, 66-TT, Kx (unfortunately I don't know anything about his tendencies, especially about his OOP tendencies...).
Please analyse my line, and tell me if my acts based on wrong conceptions.
Thank You Guys!!

UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.30, CO folds, BN calls $0.30, SB raises to $1.20, BB folds, Hero calls $0.90, BN calls $0.90
Probably this is a standard party, but I'm running into AA in the decent amount of the time when a nitty/taggy player plays a line such this.
Nov. 14, 2013 | 8:39 a.m.
You're right, but I think He won't raise with 78, 86, because He just valuetowns himself against my 99+ type hands.
Nov. 6, 2013 | 1:59 p.m.
You mean stacking off preflop is a valid option? Raising flop seems a good idea, just because it's kinda super extra draw-heavy board, and He seems a pretty loose-aggro player.
But I'm not sure He's capable to call a river bet with 2nd or 3rd pairs in a club river. And yes, if He has even a little SD value, He checks back the river immediately.

BB: $12.21 (Hero)

HJ: $4.45
CO: $10.47
BN: $19.40
UTG folds, HJ raises to $0.30, CO folds, BN folds, SB folds, Hero calls $0.20
If He has SD value, He should check it back {4x, 55-66, 7x, Ahigh???}
If He has some 2overcards He can bet the river. However I can play bluffcatching with the decent part of my hand range after his turn check-back.
I'm very confused about this spot. I absolutely don't have any fixed idea what should I do here...

CO: $10 (Hero)
BN: $16.20
SB: $20.44

I put him on a hand range like this, after called the cbet OOP: {6x, 7x, 45, 89, 2over float, 2over+BDFD}
He check raises his nuts Imo, because He's OOP, and I have the possibility to check back the river.
Subsequently I stoved him a range which is capable to call a tripple barrel (with this tiny river sizing).

We're way behind against this range even if I don't calculate with the nutted type hands... (just because He check-raises them OTT in the decent amount of the time.
All in all, that was a pretty bad idea to bet the river. It should be a clear check back...
Any advice Guys?
Thank You!!

He opens 14% from UTG. Why do you 3bet preflop? His fold to 3bet stat 73% and JJ is the top of our preflop calling range as You mentioned above.
I think He just continues with the following range if We 3bet him.

His range at this point: Qx, 55, 22, FD, random airs.
My perceived range: medium pocket pairs, weak Qx such QTs-QJs...
Probably He makes this line with QTs+ or better.
Any idea or thread to play this hand?
Thank You!!

Thanks for the discussions, this hand seems pretty much close for almost anybody, and folding on different streets depending on different perspectives.
Oct. 30, 2013 | 12:56 p.m.
3,7 is his 3bet %. Kx definitely not the best turn card, because there aren't almost any Kx I could play bet/call on the flop and his flop bluff-raising range contains many Kx Imo.
Oct. 28, 2013 | 2:25 p.m.
In my opinion He can either has Acxx and Kcxx floats. For suited connectors 9c is almost a Gin-card. So I don't understand Your thread, please explain me a bit deeper. Thank You!!

My default play here is that I'm almost always cbetting, and hoping for an A or Q turn to barrel again. But... I think there are more turn cards I can barrel profitably. T ; J ; K or blank turns such 2 ; 5, expect club cards, but it seems complicated to me :D... Please explain me some 3bet conceptions, and actions on given turn cards.

I think He either has airs and few 8x SC type hands. I gave him QQ-TT, because He expects me to call with small pocket pairs.
I don't think AQo raises, because just AQs can improve to a flushdraw on the turn, and barrel again. Maybe AQo just floats and bets if I give up OTT. That's why I gave him airs weighted towards Kx.
Should I fold flop? Does my thread correct OTF - OTT?
Thank You!!
Sorry, I used a wrong word. 9 combos of sets, right.
