Hi Guys,

Yesterday i played my second session of NL10 after making the decision to move down and start over at the 6 max micro stakes. I think i played ok but there are some spots where i would like to get some feedback on.

Stats for the session:

I am a little bit puzzled on this hand i would really like to get some feedback how i played this, here are my thoughts:

- Standard opening raise with a pretty strong hand
- No info on the opponent, he just joined the table
- Foldig preflop after his re-raise felt to weak so i called
- I hit a dream flop for my hand
- He bet really weak so i raised
- He re-raised me and i thought i had that many outs and i should get it on
- He obviousley had top 2 and i did not hit the flush

Any thoughts??

I think i played this hand ok, but i think i could have gotten more value if i got it in on the turn. I think he put me on a draw and check folded the river because of that reason. Does anyone c-bet this flop?

I think this is pretty closed between raising and calling flop, however because of the fact that the flop was pretty dry, i elected to call and he paid me off with two pair. Ok play?

I like my play in this hand, however maybe i should have bet the turn harder

I hate myself for not betting the flop, i thought it was rainbow but i noticed i was wrong on the turn, i dont think he raises me on the river with hands i beat so i folded. bad fold?

Total stats so far:

I think it should be possible to sustain this winrate at these stakes, i really felt if i played some hands diffirent i would have been way over 10bb/100. But well, we will see in some time...

I am going to my girlfriend to celebrate the New Year with some friends and we will go out after. Probably my next update will be this coming friday, thats when i can play a lot of hands i think.

See you next year!!!

Kind Regards and best wishes,

- Standard opening raise with a pretty strong hand Some people can fold ATs UTG depending on table but overall yes.
- No info on the opponent, he just joined the table
- Foldig preflop after his re-raise felt to weak so i called Wrong. You're only calling here with a clear definite mission. He 3-bet an UTG raiser to a size that makes it very enticing to call.
- I hit a dream flop for my hand You only hit a FD as played. He's either on the stone cold nuts or a pure bluff. You need to maximize value from the bluff by letting him hang himself. Raising accomplishes noting except pushing the bluffer who has close to 0% equity out and giving money to the nuts who has 70% equity(ak/aa/kk)
- He bet really weak so i raisedYou said you only sat down at the table and had zero reads on the guy but you're making so many reads on his play. Where are all these reads coming from?

Hope that helps.

Now I really am a busto. Thanks FTP.
