Hand #1

[Ad] in MP

I open raise to 10$. Loose MP and Tight SB call. 3 handed to a flop of



I lead for $25, Loose MP min raises to $50, Tight SB cold-calls.

Pot is 160$ and I have $175 behind. My action? I'm confident I have Loose MP player beaten.

Hand #2

[Ks] UTG. I limp. Loose player behind limps and tight player in MP raises to 8$. Big pairs are easier to play against tight players IMO so i only call. Loose player behind also calls.

Flop is

I check. Loose player behind bets $10 and Tight PF raiser raises him to $30. Your play? Cold-call? Re-reraise?


Hand #3

[2c] in BB. 5 players limp to a flop of [3d][2s]. Checked around.

Turn is . I check. MP loose player bets 8$ into a 12$ pot. I call, fearing the flush and seeing if I can fill up. River is the . Filling me up. I lead out for $25 and he pauses, and then bumps its to $60. Raise/Fold/Call?

I thought the second hand hero had AK and I said to fold, then I saw we had KK.

First hand, without I fold here.

Second hand. I would just call hoping for a call from a loose player, there is only gutshot draws possible, and I take my chances with it. On the turn I would try to keep the loose player in hand, as I suspect that tight player will fold AQ or worse, but will call with AA or AK. Stack sizes would be nice.

Third hand I'm all-in, though I would lead the flop. With an A showing and a flush draw I think it is a must-lead on flop, I would hope for a raise and I would push then.

Hand 1 - I fold even with the Ah

Hand 2 - lead the flop. He either has nothing or a hand he's gonna raise you with. Lead, let him raise and probably push and hope he's got AK. I think you cold calling the raise or reraising gives too much information that you have a good hand on a draw free board.

Hand 3 - not leading the flop is asking for trouble. Lead the flop and reevaluate on the turn.

Hand #1 - It's 25$ more for me to see the turn when the pot is over 150$ already. I don't see how a fold could be the correct move. Maybe just a call. Anyways, I pushed.
Loose min-raiser folded and tight player called with [8h] and hit.

Hand #2 - I cold called. Turn was checked around. I bet into the blank river and they both folded??? Very strange hand. No draws out there, yet they bet and raise. Still confused.

Hand #3 - I debated for a bit and only called. He had 33 for a higher boat.

Thanks for the input!

Hand 1 I raise, because if the tight player has a set or twopair I think they'd reraise instead of calling. Unless they are passive, in which case it's a tough decision.

Hand 2 I lead the flop, it is absolutely essential. Didn't you watch Harman in the High Stakes Poker TV show? As played I guess I coldcall and get the money in on the turn. But realize that anything you do now will show that you have a very very strong hand.

Hand 3 I lead the flop again. As played I raise or call river depending on the player.

I have a funny feeling that you're going to say that when you lead out on the flop that everyone folds to you?
If so, you aren't leading enough.
