Villian is a reg - 679 hands 20/17/7 . - hand is 13days old so not fresh, but i still think the turn is a call as the population can fire one street with missed draws. River I'm unsure; 67 got there and he has 55,44 in his range, i feel population under bluffs OTR but I don't block the spades.
Discounting a4&a5s, he has 8 value combos and a 12-15 spade combos 40:60 value:bluff, however i think the population rarely raise flop and double barrel bluff.
what would you do here?
Is my thought process flawed anywher?
given its 60% vs 27% should i call?
If his cbet is 29% are we more likely to see a value heavy range from villian and should easily fold?

appreciate the feedback all
talkin6muffin i think you got me in one (2nd part) - i scat around trying to implement too much too quickly

mxj0330 why would you like to play the spot passive if your more than 100bb deep? encase of the jam all in on the turn?
I like the fold because of the low FT3B. I would assume he will have the advantage of 9x and JT etc. Not sure whether his 4b range would knock out a lot of the 9x though.

i'd probably bet call $5

I'd bet closer to half pot on the flop and larger on the turn given the board becomes more draw heavy.. I'm not going to try to price villain in but try to extract value before the board stops any more value. I would also bet draws larger for more FE.

Jeff_ interested to why you would 3b suited one gappers or suited connectors against a 13% LJ fish whose calling a large %?
I'm going back and forth on this hand, i can see a weaker player calling most of his range
on the T including showing up with 77 (Less often),88, 99, 9Ts, small % of AA. i can't see any draws donk jamming as they'd probably bet smaller. Probably calling due to the fish spew factor in game, but i'd hope i'd fold

10NLz less than full stack 2x raise could be one of two types of villian that I would usuall see.
if the villain has a limp range then this can be a very strong hand pre
if the villain doesn't limp usually a weak range (raising 3x/pot with better hands).
Not sure what you think about the preflop?
I'd call pre against the limp type and think about raising pre and taking some FE against the weaker range.
Again post flop changes with which type of opening but this looks like the weaker limper range.
I would assume that this could be a second pair,some face cards that got there and lots of junk that needs to bet

After a little advice please?
I'm a loosing player unfortunately, finally admitting it. 5NL seems easy, 10NL i feel like I'm winning however the results don't lie.
I feel like i change my strategy too often to completely tell.
I'm going to study more, but I can't tell what game to play. Should I try to crush 5NL zoom or 10NL reg tables or struggle at 10NL zoom to improve. Stats below, PP & Stars. Since I got this laptop c6months and last 6weeks.
PS All time
PP All Time
PS last 6 weeks
PP last 6 weeks
Questions are:
What stakes should I be playing at to learn?
Is it possible to beat the rake at 10NL - the regs i have '000s of hands on are losing?
any adivce is appreciated!

Betsizing tells made me call. Two small bets made me think he had a weak hand no flush etc. Thought he could occassionally have ajo, but more likely to be jj, tt or a weak bluff
Also short sited a villian playe nearly identic way with 99

I recently moved up playing 1 table of 10nl zoom for 30minutes, then added a table of 5nl zoom on top for the remainder of the session. May be worth trying to add in tables of the stake above, if the bet sizing wont be too difficult.
Also check what day of the week you have the best ev bb/100 amd take your shots then
Ill probably do the same again with 16nl or 25nl - max 3buyins
Ps. Ive found the stake above easier but its. Only been 7500 hands

Thanks, just moved up to 10NL zoom so didn't have a good sample - 21 hands 19/19/20 (so can't judge anything by it).
Do you generally just work in 3bet bluffs when you have some kind of read on the opponent?
I guess you will need to know my strategy first:
Against HJ, I'm calling more and 3betting less when compared to CO and BTN where I use nearly 100% 3bet.
My SB range vs HJ is something like (without knowing if BB=weaker player):
3b, JJ+, AKs+,AQs, some a3s-a5s, KQo
call - suited connectors 67s+, suited broadways, AQo, ATs+, 66+

Still not sure on whether a x/r on this flop is good.
I think it would be in a 3bet pot, but in a 4bet pot I'm thinking we have to call down - 2 if not 3 streets.
Feel its rather loose to call the river.
Aug. 7, 2018 | 8:36 p.m.
Pretty rubbish spot - I put the villian on mainly 99-JJ with the occasional AJs hand etc
A few questions -
is 50% 3betting a3-a5s from sb vs lj & hj ok?
what would expect the cold calling range from bb to be.
Turn check?
River - After tanking I still believed villian would be betting his Tt-JJ and I think turn and river would be larger from 99 hoping to get value from JJ-KK. Do you think a call is ok.
Aug. 7, 2018 | 8:30 p.m.
tbh getting to the river with a pair of 9s and calling for the rest of your stack seems spewy.
unless he's somehow works up the courage to donk lead jam ahx, i can't see the donk being a bluff.
Furthermore, you have TT (rarely),55 ah2h-ah5h sometimes (if you split your flushes), ATh, sometimes ah6h-ah9h 9xTh, occasional 7xsuited. I would lay down this 9T combo.
Also really thinking about it, 89 is better to call then 9T as his 7 hands probably contain an 8.

Hi All,
First hand I've posted,Hand history is in text as site doesn't allow for HM3 hands - if theres a site i can convert please let me know.
In game party poker doesn't have a long time bank so its at very most 30 seconds per decision, so 3-4 table zoom tables creates mistakes. No HUD allowed.
I open AKo ep - face a 3b from CO from a stack covering me. by the time i see the hand I didn't have much time. My normal plan would be to 4b fold this hand 200bb effective.
This time called the 3b.
River:
I loose to AA,TT. chop AK,KK
beat: KQ (is he really barreling KQ on the river for 80bb).
bluffs - I'm not sure if anyone at these stakes can bluff JTs etc?
Its a disgusting spot on the river given its 200bb effective.
At 5NL do I have to call this?
AT 25NL do I have to call this?

Pre warning: I play 5nl fastforward
Even with a villain range of 88+, aq+ you have 27-31% (which surprised me). My general read is bs=hs hence the range. I would usually have folded this, however given we have 31% I'm now calling one street.
27-31% pot odds + % of future streets if we hit (strong range + gutshot harder to see) =>33%
quite an interesting spot for the turn if were assuming the above range.
we hit a 6 or 7 and he still bets the exact same range - tough spot we have 39% equity but our river playability puts me off. can go either way.
turn = 6 or 7 and believe he doesn't bet his aq or ak - fold
turn= club and he bets nearly pot - call
If you've played a lot of hands, you could check your database for similar bet sizes from the population. Or maybe check hands against this opponent to see if he saw you call down light.
nb: 27% pro poker tools, 31% equilab
sorry basic question here but what size are you range betting 25% or 33%
