    Wow ok, I don't remember exactly what happened....I think this is about time either laptop #1 or #2 shit the bed....anyways, I will do my best to keep up with this thread.


    I'm just going to continue as normal....if you want to see the whole hand just scroll back a bit

    Answer: The ace on the turn changes the situation. Now you've become a solid favorite in the hand and should start building the pot. A bet of two-thirds to three-quarters of the pot looks like the right amount.

    Action: You bet $0.35 and Player A calls. The pot is now $1.17.

    River: 7c

    Action: Player A bets $0.90

    Question: What would you do?

    Summarizing to make it easier to analyze river decision.

    Your hand A8dd

    A limps utg, you raise to .20 3 folds A calls pot is .47

    Flop Kc Th 3s both check, pot still .47

    Turn Ac A check, you bet .35 A calls, pot $1.17

    River 7c A bets .90 you?

    Given notes and stats on villain, this looks like a hero call spot.

    Against most players, this is probably a fold, but with this villain showing a tendency to bluff river, I like a call.

    Flop

    Answer: The third club appears and he bets out. There are a few holdings, like Jc Tc or Qc Jc that could have played the hand this way. The giveaway, however is contained in the HUD and the notes. You've already seen him bluff the river once and get called. In addition, notice the extermely odd agression factor line: overall aggression of just 1.1, with the factors for the individual streets of 1 on the flop, 1 on the turn, and 3 on the river. Normal aggression factors show a slight decline from the flop to the river, as you might expect. It looks like Player A has learned that big bluffs on the river are effective at low stakes. With that in mind, and considering that you're getting 2.3-to-1 on your call, you should call and see what has.

    Action: You call $0.90. Your opponent shows Kd 9s and you take the pot.

    In a higher stakes game, the fact that this opponent had already showed a bluff on the river might make you less inclined to call the bet on the theory that he knows he was caught and knows everyone saw him get caught. Therefore he is less likely to bet without a real hand. Remember, however, that at micro-stakes, all tendencies are carried to excess. Players who bluff really like to bluff and see that as their winning style. When you see such a tendency, don't expect it to reverse; expect it to continue.

    Raise it .35 making it .60 to go, not looking to play this hand in a multi-way pot so hoping to get HU with the limper who seems to like giving his money away.

    Answer: You have very little information on Player B, but in any case you're going to raise. This is technically an isolation raise of someone who might be a loose passive player, but your hand is so strong you're also raising for value.

    Action: You raise to .40 and Player C 3-bets to .70. The blinds fold and Player B folds. The pot is now $1.35.

    Question: What do you do

    Since it's now HU and I have position in the hand I'm going to flat call here, and play the flop accordingly.

    Player C, your 3-bettor, is the button, you are the cut-off, so you don't have position.

    I'd still flat here, and plan to check most flops . . . a board with two aces or two kings would have me leading out, all others I'm checking

    Your correct I misread this, well in that case I'm 4 betting making it another $1.75 to go. Very easy for him to read your raise as a steal here, and 3 bet light with any holding seeing as he has position.
