Villain is presumably a regular. No reads or history with him yet, but his stats are 39/26 with 1.9 aggression factor after 51 hands.

I feel like we should have bet on the turn but thought it would suck to get check-raised here, and if villain had a lower FD + a pair then letting him hit a diamond might be more profitable. So I decided to check behind.

River we hit top set. So we bet, he raised... Are we calling or shoving? Only hand that beat us is 56**.

UTG limp calls a lot preflop but I have not seen him make loose calls post flop so far in the session.

MP is a 40/29 with 1.8 aggression factor after only 35 hands. He strikes me as an aggressive regular who likes to raise and/or isolate pf then makes continuation bets on dry flops where the chances of him winning them is high.

I decided to 3bet with our hand since MP could be isolating the limper and we have a good hand to do it with. I didn't expect UTG to cold call the 3bet, but I still think his range is still wide here although now we can include dry AA* and KK* in them.

MP's range for calling could be more on suited rundown type hands and for sure this kind of player would 4bet his AA* and possibly some good KK* as well.

OK! On to the flop, we have a Q high FD + a gutshot for the nut straight... After all that talk, what do we do? Bet/get it in, or do we check behind? I'm not sure our diamond outs will be good, but they could be. But at the same time I feel like checking back is wrong somehow because we have only 2 SPR left and the pot is big.

My first instinct is to just pot it and make them fold their QQ, maybe KK and possibly their pairs + straight draws. But not really sure overall.

Villain is a loose and cally preflop and tends to donk a lot on the flop but I haven't seen him c/r yet, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him c/r light in certain spots.

His stats are 57/13 with an aggression factor of 2.3 after 104 hands.

My question is given the read, while not solid, could we find a check and see a turn?

And given that same read, in this spot could we jam it all in when he check raises?

Or do we need to wait for a better spot?

Villain is a very loose player. He likes raising with a wide range pf and at times just calls. He also has a tendency to donk lead on the flop a lot with an assumable wide range as well.

He is 35/12 with a 2.1 aggression factor.

So here I decided to isolate him with a weak hand hoping to make a set. But in hindsight it's probably a bad idea since I'd have a hard time making him fold if we miss. BUT lo and behold we hit bottom set. Nice!

So we cb and gets called. That's expected. But then on the turn...??? Are we sticking this in his face?

I mean, this is tough. I've been playing mostly tight and he knows we have AA** majority of the time here (or maybe not), and yet he donk leads in to me. We call?

Just sat down on the table so no history with villain. But from what I've seen, he seems laggy.

I know we should have raised pf but as played, are we calling here, or is this an easy "whatever" fold?

No solid reads on villain but he is 81/15 with a 1.2 aggression factor and seems to call a lot with a wide range. I feel like I put myself in a tough spot by betting on the turn. Should we have checked instead?

And on the river, as played what would you do?

Should we have made a blocking bet instead?

UTG is loose passive, 92/11/1.1 after 36 hands, and BTN is a LAG, 59/50/3.2 after 37 hands.

I love that our hand is an overpair + a nut FD, but I hate that flop. And worse is that we got two callers.

What would be the default play here? Slow down and see what develops or bet big and try to stick the rest in?

Turn: ($21.65) T (2 players - 1 is all in)



River: ($21.65) 9 (2 players - 1 is all in)



CO is 30/13 8.0 3bet after only 67 hands. So his 3bet stat isn't really reliable. But my thought was he posted then 3bet, I was like "Really? In your first hand?"

BU however cold called the 3bet. He is an aggro spewy LAG who has been hitting a lot. He is 94/44 after 26 hands or so and gets it in a lot on the flop.

So this is where it gets interesting. Should I have 4bet preflop? We are deep and I want to get more money in and build a side pot vs the BU.

But what stopped me is, if we 4bet and CO 5bets allin, we're fucked vs AA**. And there are no assurances that BU will come along. So what do you guys think?

On the flop we have TPTK + some outs to two pair, but I hate the fact that it's two tone. Anyway what do you think of the check/shove on the flop? Villain unlikely has AA**, I think. And is the SPR low enough to justify in getting it in?

Villain is a TAG (21/13 with a 4.3 3bet) so clearly he has AA and some stuff. In position, I think we can call here preflop with this hand. But OOP, I'm not sure. Is this an 'ok' call preflop? I have a feeling this could be a mistake.

On the flop, SPR is really low, so decided on open shoving to make him fold whatever equity he had on the flop and take the pot down. What do you guys think? Too spewy?

edit: I forgot to mention that I'm isolating UTG. He is laggy (the bad kind, 76/48 with 1.8 aggression factor), and is spewy post flop. But I don't think that changes villain's 4betting range as he looks like to be doing this with mostly AAxx.

No reads or history vs villain at this point. But I haven't seen him fool around and seems like a pretty solid player post flop. His stats are 22/16 with aggression factor of 2.6. That doesn't really say much. But as a default what is the best move here for you?

Call? But I do not want to give him control of the pot.

Shove? We'd be getting it in as an underdog, we have around 34% equity vs all sets.

First of all, is it fine cold calling a 3bet with this hand on the button? I've seen comments on here that it's fine and to some it's not. So a little confused which is right (but decided to cold call lol).

On the flop it is very clear that both the MP and the CO are weak, the BB is short so whatever, my question is: Is this a good spot to shove? MP and CO's hands are weighted towards over pairs, and vs that we have decent equity and the pot is somewhat large at this point.

What do you guys think?

First of all, is it ok just calling here preflop in position and planning on set mining? Or should we always 3b in this spot?

Flop is an obvious bet, but on the turn I wasn't sure what to do. I do not want to bet and get raised and be forced out of our hand. Or should we bet here? If yes, why?

On the river he lead strong which makes me think he's strong, but then again he could have a pair and a busted FD and is trying to fold better hands like small two pair hands. What do you guys think? Call?

Villain is 66/34 with an aggression factor of 1.1 after 389 hands. No reads on him, but he's a calling station and went to the river and showed down with weak hands a couple of times.

Villain is 29/17 with a 3b of 6.6 and an aggression factor of 1.5 after 900 hands. The thing is, this is the first time I noticed villain today, so I guess he hasn't been getting out of line much.

Anyway he bets small on the flop after his smallish 3b from the small blind. Seems weak.

Given that little info, my instincts tell me to raise on this flop to make him fold his equity with hands like AAxx/KKxx. If he repots, we GII since we still have decent equity vs a pair and better flush draws.

Another thought was just call and see a turn since he made it cheap, but I was thinking he was just trying to see a cheap turn with his AA/KK hands with possible backdoors.

What do you guys think?

No reads on player, but seems taggish. Stats are 27/16 after 37 hands with 7 aggression factor. Doesn't really say much.

But here's what I thought. Please tell me if I thought correctly in this hand.

On the flop: We have a wrap and we have equity, so c/c is in order.

On the turn: We hit our straight, and villain bets strong repping the flush. He could or could not have it here and we could bluff catch with our straight. So we c/c again.

On the river: Villain shoves the rest. If he had the flush, shouldn't he be worried that we have a boat? Does he have the As blocker and is using that to bluff? And if he has a set on the flop, shouldn't he be checking back on the turn, concerned that we have a straight?

My gut says we call this river, but I was wondering if I was thinking correctly during the hand in the first place.
