In this hand, I think I could have bet turn bigger, or should I have c/c'd? Is the river an auto shove or c/c or c/f? Villain is 31/22/5.6% 3b and Agg 1.4, FvCbet of 67% only over 70 hands though so irrelevant sample really. Haven't seen him get out of line yet but is a bit of a station.

UTG: $10.45 (261.3 bb)
Hero (MP): $5 (125 bb)
CO: $1.54 (38.5 bb)
BTN: $9.56 (239 bb)
SB: $5.24 (131 bb)
BB: $5 (125 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP with Q:club: Q:heart:

UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.15, CO folds, BTN calls $0.15, SB calls $0.13, BB folds

Flop: ($0.50) 9:heart: 7:diamond: J:diamond: (3 players)

SB checks, Hero bets $0.42, BTN calls $0.42, SB calls $0.42

Turn: ($1.76) 4:spade: (3 players)

SB checks, Hero bets $1, BTN calls $1, SB folds

River: ($3.76) 9:club: (2 players)

Hero checks, BTN bets $2.25, Hero calls $2.25



This 2nd hand just confused the hell out of me to be honest. Again i think my cbet should be around 26c or so. Villain is 22/12 with an Agg 0.8. Maybe I was a bit too weak tight here and should have 3b shoved the flop.

Opinions on both hands are appreciated.

Hand 1: B/F $1.75 on river

Hand 2: It's fine, you can also check behind this flop.

cool thanks. In hand 1 if i check, does it not allow him to bet QT and missed FD's? By betting we only get called by a couple of J's, some 9's and get raised by boats, 9's and 10-8

I actually think shoving hand 1 is better than b/f now.

As for:

In hand 1 if i check, does it not allow him to bet QT and missed FD's?

I refer you to the OP:
Haven't seen him get out of line yet but is a bit of a station.

QT is a ridiculously small part of his range given that he may not call QTo preflop and the fact we hold massive blockers. If you think he can bluff the river with a busted draw, then bet-call.

I give him a range of all reasonable boats, suited 9x, T8 as well what I think he has and eliminate all busted draws and I get this:

Board: Jd 7d 9h 4s 9c
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 66.181% 66.18% 00.00% 6271319 0.00 { QcQh }
Hand 1: 33.819% 33.82% 00.00% 3204660 0.00 { JJ-77, AJs, A9s, KJs, K9s, QJs, Q9s, J9s+, T8s+, 97s+, AJo, KJo, QJo }

I love hand 1. I think he has a ton of busted draws by the river so checking to induce is great. I also wouldn't mind shoving
