I play super micro stakes - but wanted to ask: what would the plan be if hero had a hand like KQ on the river?
Â
Is betting the turn with KQ super standard? Would a river shove be way too thin?

Your HUD seems really simple (not in a bad way) - do you use a lot of popups?

Really good video - learn a ton watching you play.

Fair enough, against that tight range we're in trouble.
The fact that OP said villain had made this play vs. him a few times (granted over a small sample), lead me to think that he's possibly doing this with a fairly wide range (which could be a big mistake).
Are we basically calling down on blank turns and rivers?
June 19, 2013 | 8:41 a.m.
Agreed, I play 5NL and a lot of the time the min-raise on the flop isn't particularly strong.
Against a 36/1, get the money in.

Thanks very much for the post, appreciated.
With regards to my question: should we be checking or making a smallish value bet if villain had checked the river, or is it a bit too thin?

SB: $7.59
BB: $3.14
UTG: $4.75
HJ: $8.66
CO: $5.12
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO folds, Hero raises to $0.11, SB folds, BB calls $0.06
Thoughts?
Question: if villain had not lead, should I still be value-betting the river? (Or is it too thin?)
Thanks.

Hero raises to $0.15, HJ folds, CO folds, BN folds, SB folds, BB calls $0.10
AA, and KK, are probably getting 3bet close to 100% of the time (QQ probably as well)
If he did flat with QQ preflop, I don't know how often villain is calling the flop
If villain flatted with AK preflop, should he be check/raising this kind of turn (if he didn't check/raise the flop)?
AQ is probably just calling the turn bet?
If I give villain a narrow "value" range of say:
{JTs}, {AK}, {AhJh}, {AhTh} - I'm in pretty good shape
Is this just a super easy jam against an unknown?
Thanks.

HJ: $5
CO: $5.57
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO raises to $0.17, Hero raises to $0.53, SB folds, BB folds, CO raises to $1.15, Hero calls $0.62
Should I just be folding to this 4bet? Villain has a 4bet percentage of 40% and a 4bet range of 10 (over a really small sample)
When I was playing this hand, I felt like this player was 4betting pretty light in this spot (given our previous encounters), and decided to flat the 4bet and play a pot in position.
This shove feels like spew - the Ace is probably a lot more in his range than in mine?
Should I just be checking back here, looking to hit my flush?
Overall, thought I played this pretty badly.
Thoughts?
Thanks.

No notes on villain.

Call turn?
Thanks.

Wasn't fully stacked, so possibly a weaker player?
HJ folds, CO raises to $0.15, BN folds, Hero raises to $0.50, BB folds, CO calls $0.35
I picked up some more outs, but the Jack hits his preflop and flop calling range pretty hard. I also have the Ace of hearts, so there are probably less flushes in his range as well?

With the 66 hand, he called flop, and a blank turn, the river checked through.
Maybe I read too much into the info I had.
March 5, 2013 | 4:05 p.m.
BB: $5.32
HJ: $5.26 (Hero)

One note I had on him was earlier in the session he c/c with 66 on QT8tt (BB vs. BTN)
Hero raises to $0.15, CO folds, BN calls $0.15, SB folds, BB folds
My bet should have been much bigger though, don't know why I bet so small.
March 5, 2013 | 11 a.m.
if they lead the river? (Turn and/or river are overcard(s), and we don't improve)
I struggle a fair amount in these kind of spots. Is folding most of the time a leak?
March 4, 2013 | 4:45 p.m.
Thoughts on maybe check/calling the turn?

Some videos you seem a lot more aggressive overall.
Thanks.
Feb. 27, 2013 | 5:15 a.m.
Is this a standard defend for you blind versus blind?
Would you be defending this hand against a typical regular in these games?
Thanks.
Feb. 27, 2013 | 5:06 a.m.
Would be cool to watch you playing lower stakes at some stage.
Feb. 24, 2013 | 6:41 a.m.
Against a tight(ish) player, folding to a reasonably sized bet would be best?

Without any reads, and given this sizing, is calling fine here?

You flop middle pair.
~8:50 - after the hand ends you speak about taking the option of betting over checking a street when the decision is pretty close. Are you mainly taking this approach more when you're in position?
Also, without reads, is this a good default play in a HU pot? Seem to struggle in spots where I have a moderately strong hand which I wouldn't be comfortable bet/calling with.
Hope this was worded okay and made sense.
Great video.

Wanted to ask: Which do you prefer more: Zoom or regular tables?
Thanks, looking forward to watching more of your videos.
I know Chael mentioned it at the beginning of the thread, but just wanted to mention it again: Shorthanded NL play - HU and 3/4-Handed. Starting tables is a good thing.
Also - a video on an instructor's thoughts about having an open-limping strategy in the small blind perhaps? Positives, negatives, when it can be a viable option, etc. (Doesn't need to be super long and go into tons of detail, but it sounds/looks like a very interesting style to have).
Love the site.
