$0.10 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players


Hero (BTN): $11.17 (111.7 bb)
SB: $23.89 (238.9 bb)
BB: $13.11 (131.1 bb)
UTG: $10.77 (107.7 bb)
MP: $12.08 (120.8 bb)
CO: $5.75 (57.5 bb)



Pre Flop: (pot: $0.15) Hero has :10s4: :kd4:
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.23, fold, BB calls $0.13

Flop: ($0.51, 2 players) :4h4: :kc4: :6c4:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.29, BB raises to $1.12, Hero calls $0.83

Turn: ($2.75, 2 players) :9d4:
BB bets $2.06, Hero calls $2.06

River: ($6.87, 2 players) :5c4:
BB bets $9.70 and is all-in, Hero folds

Information on the opponent:
hands:2923
Stats:23/19 - Fold to steal > 74


Flop: The problem I see here is that if I call the flop here, I'll probably have to call the turn often enough and that will be expensive, so I'm wondering what to do with the hand here. The opponent will surely have some flush draws.


Turn: I don't think the 9 changes much in his range here. He will still have flush draws and two pairs and sets. But can I fold here already?

This sort of spot sucks alot. Obviously river is an easy fold once flush comes in.

At 10NL it's probably underbluffed so already on the flop it's a bluff catcher, but you have to call at this point with top pair, otherwise you are folding too much.

On the turn, it's a brick so you could call if you think villain is overbluffing, though I tend to prefer fold at these stakes without other reads.

The value hands you beat on the flop are low suited Kx, K8o and K9o. On top you beat random flush draws, oe straightdraws and gutters with two hearts. Easy call on flop, maybe some exots like 5h6h.
On turn you also lose to K9o. K8o will probably give up as well as the lower Kx suited if not very aggro player.
Turn call depends a lot on villain but I´d call here easily as well or even checkraise small as a blocker for the river - fold to shove obviously.
River is clear fold. Another Kx suited gets there, exots like 56h get there.. straightdraws get there and flush gets there. Pure bluffcatcher against maniac.

This is a complicated/hard hand to play postflop. I think our intention is to open for steal, and when we get called we expect villain to fold OTF. Villain's fold to steal seem standard, we cannot call a lot preflop and defend the blinds in a high frequency in cash tables. The real problem is to get raised OTF. And not only a simple check-raise but a 4x raise means a lot of strenght. I doubt villain would be doing it with some kind of nonsensical bluffs. We must expect at least KJ on villain's range. I would've folded right OTF: we have a weak top pair, we are drawing to nothing and we don't know what to do on most of turns.
