So I finally had a decent session and I'm slowly getting my confidence back. I got really unlucky a couple of times (not just 2 outers and stuff but horrible flops in reraised pots etc) but I kept playing good and I finally started hitting and getting paid off. Had loads of marginal spots, made probably quite a few bad decisions but overall I’m quite happy with my game. I was really focused most of the time, didn’t make any stupid, retarted fancy plays etc. I also won a nice 400bb pot and also my KK > villain’s AA

. I might not be able to play tomorrow as my dad is visiting me cause it’s easter or sth. I’ll probably hand out with him for the whole day. I haven’t seen him for a long time. Anyway, here are my stats for today:

And quite a few hand histories:

1. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170604
Villain was a 59/14/2.07 retard after 350 hands and he was betting 50% times on the river. It was probably a bad call anyway. All I’m hoping for is a split.

2. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170606
Quite a retarted spot, villain is the same as in the above hand. Turn check is ok? Should I check behind this river? Prolly should’ve just folded to his raise. WTF can I beat?

3. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170608
No read on villain but I still think calling river is reasonable. Thoughts?

4. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170609
I had no idea what to do in this spot. Villain was like 33/2.6/0.29 after 40 hands. Now I figured that raising here was the best option. Obviously QQ has got some showdown value here but raising makes it much easier to play this hand. I made a stupid calldown instead.

5. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170610
Seriously, someone please teach me how to play unraised pots??

6. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170611
Nice 400bb pot. Wasn’t sure how to get the most out of it. Figured that a big raise will look cool and he’ll think “zomg he’s not raising like this with a set, my AK/AA is good” and so he did. Ship it!

7. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170613
I think it’s first time ever my KK > opponent’s AA. Best part is his chat line before making the call. I think I should’ve just shoved the flop as it’d look less fishy. Ship it anyway.

8. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170614
Villain was a 59/13/2.2 donk with 50% bet river factor. Finally I used this stat in the right way. Max value, holla.

9. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170616
You might say that checking this flop is ridiculous but it is so dryish that I’m getting called if I bet here maybe 20% of the time. I wanted them to catch sth on turn and someone with trips would pay me off anyway. Likey?

10. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170619
This is the hand against a guy that I stacked in a 400bb pot. I think he started tilting a lil bit. Any way to get more value here? He was like 20/14/3.65 and 3betting quite frequently.

11. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170623
At that moment I had no stats on villain. Should’ve just checked behind on turn with my FD + gutshot as it has a lot of value but I can’t stand a check/raise here.

12. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170624
I’ve got a lot of trouble playing “TP good/middle kicker” type of hands when I raise PF and villain bets out into me. I tend to get into passive calldown mode. But on the other hand raising turns my hand into a bluff, right? I mean maybe not a bluff but weaker hands (except for OESD or FD) are folding when I put in a raise. But maybe it’s a better option anyway? Ugh I hate my line here.

13. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170625
I luuuuv these donks.

14. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170626
I think I got the max value here (might should’ve bet more on turn). I made a smallish (less than ½ pot) bet on the river to make it look like a bluff, scared bet and get raised by a missed draw or to get called by A high, TT/JJ type of hand or a flush that hoped I’ve got overpair or missed draw. Suprisingly he called me with just K high.

15. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170629
Villain was a 70/40 lagtard that was overplaying his hands all the time. I think I played it the best I could (he’d probably fold to a turn bet) and I made him put in his whole stack. Too bad he hit his 5 outer. Shit it… noooooooot (Borat style j/k).

16. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170639
I played it sooo passively but I wanted to let him just hand over his chips to me. I could’ve bet flop and I’d probably get his stack anyway but I’d lose value if he had nothing. Raising his overbet on turn would look really fishy so I just called with an intention to shove any river card. Payback biaaatch.

17. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170640
No stats on him as pahud was fked up for a few mins but I saw him overplaying mediocre holdings all the time so it was quite an easy shove on the turn.

18. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170642
Max value I guess.

19. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170643
I hate you Lee, I fkin hate you! Oh sorry, it was Party, not Starts. But anyway, if the flop was T high or lower, I’d stack that 84/6/1.3 donk for almost 200bb.

20. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170645
Villain was new at the table so no stats. All I’ve got to say is: lol? By the way do you think river call was correct against an unknown in a long run?

21. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170648
I was very happy about the way I played this hand. based on his action and timing I put him on a very narrow range and sized my bet so that it’d be the max he would call. And so he did.

22. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170652
The guy that 3bet preflop was quite laggish so there was a good chance that he was just squeezing (especially since I was raising a lot and the other guy that called was a 50/10 type of retartd). When preflop raiser checked I figured that I’ve got him beat 90% of the time. I was playing for stacks with 50/10 guy but if Nitro_Tyr pushed I’d consider folding.

23. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170654
Likey? Villain was 60/13 type of guy that likes to bet river. I figured that he’s betting Jx anyway, he’s probably folding lower pairs and I could get a bet from him if he had a flush draw. Unfortunetaly he decided to just check behind. Was also thinking about smallish bet to induce a raise. What do you think guys?

24. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170656
Teaser on a turn but river fked me eventually. Pretty standard.

25. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/170664
Likey or not?

lol I just realized that I posted 25 hands from a 1,5k session. Lots of them are quite basic but I’m looking for input on all of them as I think I’ve got a lot of problems in some basic situations.
