| I'm not used to looking at stats in this form, but just a few quick things i *think* this report is saying. It looks like on chart 2 you are checking way too much after being the pre-flop raiser. It looks to me like you're only cbetting about 50% of your hands...IMO it should be higher than that. Another thing I *think* the first page shows is that you're raising preflop 9.77% but you're playing over 18% of your hands. IMO your VPIP and PFR should be a little closer. |

| If you raise preflop, you should be C-Betting 75% or more after the flop Heres a few links to threads on C-Betting How often do you CBet a flop that you opened PF? Cbeting Continuation Bets? Last edited by Grossberger : 6th April 2010 at 4:02 AM. |

| I think when you are going to play a hand you raise preflop. Looks like your biggest weakness. Everyone has plenty of weaknesses. Raise more preflop and like everyone has said that means you'll be able to cbet the flop more and win moreoften |

With ~25bb's (in our stack)... UTG limps on a bigstk... Here you want to typically raise here to ~ 3bb +1bb per each limper. In this hand though you're out of position sitting in SB so you 'typically' want to raise a bit more than you would if say you were raising from LP (on BTN). {when raising from out of pos. over limpers, you 'generally' want to raise 4bb +1bb for each limper} I prob would've raised to ~750 though.. as I've got a big pr. and kinda want to induce action from UTG. If Utg calls (& we have this same flop 8-5-4, there'll be ~1700(<?) in the pot now. I would lead out (as we've taken the initiative preflop... so it's expected of us to cbet here) for ~1,050 (if villain 'calls'.. pot will be ~3,800, and we will be left with a good-sized near POT shove for the turn... ie. 3,350 into 3,800). Hope this ^ helps. |

Please allow me to explain what was I thinking and therefore acting as I did based on my "feeling" and reading. So we have a new guy at the table ( he came 3-4 hands before) and I have "nothing " on him like how he plays etc. He limps UTG so my first idea was that he's limping with pp( AA down to 22) or with two face cards or suited connectors. I made a min raise to see if he wants to stay in the pot or not.He flat calls. Ok I was trying to put him on a hand AA,KK, and he wants to trap or QQ,JJ,TT maybe 99 or 6,7 making him a straight. Flop comes 5,8,4 with two hearts. I raised 600 in a 1200 pot to eliminate the flush and/or the straight chasers and to see what he will do next.He flat calls. Turn is comming:Jc and the pot is 2400. I lead out again with a 1600 bet to "eliminate the flush and/or straight chasers" and in the same time trying to put him on a hand. He flat calls again. I was thinking in that moment that he has one of the following hands AA,KK,QQ,JJ,TT,99 or he hit a set or a straight on the flop.I felt that if he hit a straight on the flop he would of reraised at one of my bets do to the flush possibility and that's why I went all in at the river when I hit my set.I was 99% sure that i have the best hand.Never even crossed my mind that he was just chasing a flush down to the river.A8 suited UTG. Do you think that he would of play his hand different if I make the raise like you suggested? I think it was a moment like "what the heck I'm the big stack I can afford to lose some chips". I'll post some more hands soon and waiting for some more suggestion. Thank you again. |

| Yeah, I'd make a bigger raise preflop -- rather than trying to get information, I want to take the pot down, oop. On the flop, I'd make a bigger bet, again, to make it a bigger mistake to chase the flush. Maybe these are leaks for me, and I could be making more $ from those queens, but that is how I'd usually play it... |

Overall, it's not like you played the hand that badly, but you did miss some fundamental and obvious signs about your opponents range and failed to adjust accordingly. It's ok though, we all do it. |

Without changing what hands you play, just change how you play them. Think about this: If it is worth playing a (particular) hand, it is worth raising. Contend a few more times when the possibility of a steal is real. Not a lot more, just a few more times per 100 hands (few being 5 or less times per 100 hands). VP looks fair, but AF seems a bit anemic. With the VP you could go either way, lower it or raise it into the 24ish range, but that will require a lot of self control. You could also lower it to the 13-16 range and have less thinking to do. 18 suggests you are not sure what it is you are doing, but not so foolish as to do it badly. |

Look at it this way: You upped it preflop (not enough in my opinion, but that's a moot point at this time), fired out at the flop and were called again. On that board (esp in a freeroll or micro) the likelyhood that you are being floated with bare overcards is prob 50/50. The likelyhood you are being called with some sort of drawing hand is much more likely. Next action you fire the turn. Again you're called. You gotta ask yourself "Why is this guy still calling?" Surely if he hit the J he woud at least call, maybe even raise. But you still can't discount the possibility of the draw. No obvious straight draw so it must be the flush draw. Now you hit your Q for the set on the river. Unfortunatly it is the Q that completes the flush draw, which is the strongest of the villians three possible hands (AJ, 67, AXh) and yet you shove anyways. Throughout the hand you always gotta ask yourself "What is he calling with?" I left 67 out of that analysis because it is likely that the villian would raise the turn for value, esp in the face of that J. (IMO) Point I am trying to make is that when the obvious draw hit, you did not need to commit your whole stack blind. You had no idea whre you stood in the hand the whole way through (You admitted yourself that you thinought villian had KK/AA) yet you committed it all the way. And I feel that just was not necessary. Big hands do not always need to = big pots. Still, in the end you really just got unlucky against a chaser, but as you learn to identify these scenarios better in the future you will not always lose your entire stack to them. Damn, that was long-winded. I probably could have made the same point much shorter, but ah well.... |
