Im raising the donk bet here and folding to a 3b. This is weak more often than strong ime. Reevaluate on the turn if he flats 3b.

As played though looks fine.

I agree with raising the donk bet, plenty of straight draw and weak 9x that will call a raise on this flop and you can fold to a 3bet. If he flats you have position so you can check back scare cards and bet for value on blanks.

Any indications as to the type of player the BB is?
Flats a biggish isolation raise and then donks a 3rd pot looks really fishy. The sizing of the donk bet says to me he has something but simply doesn't know what to do. Bearing in mind he then calls the turn I'd put him on a mid pair 88 TT JJ or maybe even a set. That being the case checking back the river should save us some money if we're beat as if he calls turn the river changes nothing in the eyes of a fish.

As you move up you see will much less of this sort of play. Not only is there less limping but Regs in the blinds know your isolating fish pretty wide from the button and will raise from the blinds preflop to pick you off. The instances of regs flatting in the blinds is pretty rare and is nearly always a mid pair 66-JJ they just want to see a flop with. Mostly it's raise or fold as a good reg doesn't want to flat oop.

Yeah but that's the game isn't it... ppl know your wider? but if you play other hands you can play back at them..

I don't know all I know is when I climb stars they better watch out not me.

Im looking forward to watching you crush and am wondering why you are still playing this low with the skills you are demonstrating.
Please post the BB hand at some point. I take it it was something unusual as you bothered to post it.

Its hard to find since ive played 70k hands. sry m8

I have skills but I have flaws which I need to scrape out or it's all a waste of time. so i'm staying low until it's time.

Hmm sorry I was a lil ignorant with my resp it was because I had a good 8k sessions felt invinceible. which is another prob I get winners tilt hah.

Anyway yeah higher up it's a lot of stealing.. I'm decent with hand ranges but ofc after playing with muppets for so long i'll have to relearn everything when I move up.

At this rate i'll be 5nl next week

Someone once told me on here about a year or two ago that I was a decent player without foundation.

So that's what I'm doing at these low limits building it. if I don't have patience now and focus on my weaknesses. No point going up the top and falling


Last 2 yrs my wife fell really sick as well and had other distractions but shes all good now and running a business.


Now i'm focusing of identifying problems and eliminating any issues.
I'll be buying a better computer chair soon because I have a really bad one.
