Hand 1 : He is representing a 9 - do you want to go bust with that hand? With no reads, I hope I can lay this down.
Hand 2 : This is a scary flop for a set. I wouldn't slow play it. Granted, most players will still chase. But if you make them pay for it, you should make money in the long run.

Hand 1
I don’t know what 65/50/3 means but this must have been an influence here. Otherwise I would suspect that you could be up against a 9. Supa would be proud.
Hand 2.
I think this is played just fine up until the Turn, I would have made a pot size bet on the turn with the flush draws out.

Hand 1 - real tough spot, on one hand the stats suggest he's loose and aggro, which means he could have a large amount of holdings on the flop here, a lot of his holdings beat you on the turn, but you're still ahead of draws and any king (except king 9, drr). I probably call and hate myself for it.
Hand 2 - I'd like 3betting that flop, you've got the third nuts and he likes his hand. If you're up against a combo draw, you're in a lot better shape than if you had TPTK, etc. Turn completes the straight draw, but you've still got outs, and he could have something more like KT diamonds ... or overpairs too

If anyone folds TPTK against a 65/30/3 they should probably stop playing poker.

I don't really know what those numbers mean as I don't use these tools. But yeah, with reads this hand played it self.
Posted Tue Feb 06, 2007 1:14 pm GMT by aaronw
I explained what these numbers mean earlier in this thread. Basically those numbers mean he plays alot of hands and is very aggressive.

Hand 1: Given you are playing a LAG, I think you played it fine. However, I think he got lucky on you on the turn and either hit trips or boated with 55.
Hand 2: Do we have any reads on villain? I would put him on AQ here, but QQ or JJ is always a possibility. I wouldn't have C/R the turn. I'd have bet out and hoped he came over top. If he's holding a higher set, I'm going broke here, but I'm certainly not going to give him the option to check behind and catch his flush or straight on the river.
JMO.

Both of these hands look alright.
Can't blame you for how the first hand went down, I would expect to see him turn up KQ or KJ.
On such a draw-heavy board for the second hand you should probably 3 bet on the flop. You are pretty stuck here, I can't imagine that you won this pot, that was the worst river card possible.

I actually did win each of the hands. Anyone want to take another couple guesses at what they had.

Hand 1: I'll guess K10
either that or a flush draw
Hand 2: AA or KK

Hand 1- I was contemplating folding, but then I looked at his stats and figured that I usually have the best hand here. He had 75hh.
Hand 2- He had A9o.
I love PP.

You aren't deep enough to consider folding hand #1 to a 65/50/3 player. He could have you beat, but you have to pay off with top/top.
I like hand # 2 a lot. Based on his action, it wasn't very likely that he was on the FD. So, I think it is OK to play the turn a little slower until he has committed himself to the point where he is compelled to call.
