Villain is a massive winner. Plays like 22/18 and makes so few mistakes. I was playing pretty tight at the time but hes seen me play like a mong a few times and double/triple barrel unimproved overs in 3b pots. Turn was a tough street for me i think, i cant decide if its a good idea to bet this (and make my hand look as airy as poss to get action from midpairs) or whether by betting i stop him executing floats and only get action from better.

This was one of the most interesting hands imo. Villain is a vv good lag playing 44/40 this session. We have a tonne of history over about 2 years and we have both seen the other do a load of weird shit. Thoughts on his line mainly. He thought he fked up but i thought his line was pretty good.

One of the toughest spots of the evening. It was pretty fucking marginal and i tend to dodge marginal decisions more lately. Villain is a decent TAG, playing 24/20 but a bit more on the passive side. FWIW on another table i just cold 4bet (AA obv) ott of his squeeze and he folded. Good/Bad fold?

In hand 3 are you flatting to induce a shove from initial raiser?

If not then you're set mining. You've missed your set so you've passed. Easy.

yeah and to underrep my hand. Problem is on that board texture im having issues wondering whether or not a geniune TAG will bluff into 2 ppl oop in a 3b pot. I kinda hated life and hated all my options given that if i call flop i shd prolly call turn jam.

Don't see how you can be ahead here tbh.

If he's bluffing you're unlikely to be miles ahead. More likely a semi bluff I would think.

Any pair he's 3 bet pre is either better than yours or has made a set.

Does his 3 bet range include low suited connectors? You know that best. If he can 3 bet  or similar you've got a chance but otherwise it's a pass for me.

Hand 1 i prob check turn v good agro villians. bet again v weak players

Hand 2 i fold pre, hes repoping your utg raise (fairly deep) and not keen on calling with KJ. post flop i play same way.

Hand 3 3bet & cbet stats would help, id 4bet most of the time and get it in.

Hand 1, my thought process was exact opposite here. I prefer bet getting it in to most other lines v good players i think.

Hand 2, he was playing crazy, im deffo not folding KJ soooooted 150+ bb deep 4 handed v this guy, ill just get run over like a train.

Hand 3, hes nitty, otherwise i would deffo be with u rudgod.

p.s post more.
