    Default 2 Hands: TP3K and Trips3K vs 18/8/inf

    Villain was 18/9/inf over 22 hands. The only read I had on him was from the first of the two hands with what he opened with (I realize this gives the result of his hand, but it's kind of necessary for the second hand's analysis.) He seemed generally fishy though.

    Hand #1:

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP2 ($9.75)
    MP3 ($10)
    CO ($12.63)
    Button ($18.34)
    SB ($10.54)
    Hero (BB) ($10.40)
    UTG ($9.21)
    UTG+1 ($10.36)
    MP1 ($6.50)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with A, J
    6 folds, Button bets $0.30, 1 fold, Hero raises to $1.20, Button calls $0.90

    Flop: ($2.45) 5, 6, A (2 players)
    Hero bets $1.40, Button raises to $2.80, Hero raises to $7.10, Button raises to $17.14 (All-In), Hero calls $2.10 (All-In)

    Turn: ($20.85) A (2 players, 2 all-in)

    River: ($20.85) 10 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Total pot: $20.85 | Rake: $1.03

    PF: Villain attempts to steal from the button and I 3-bet bluff him. I didn't have enough stats to justify this, but I wanted to either 3-bet or fold AJo. He calls.

    Flop: I value bet here (villain's stats were 18/6 at this point and I thought he was fishy enough to call with worst hands) and in hindsight, I should have bet closer to pot due to the straight and flush draws. He min-raises my bet, which is probably where I should have folded, however, I proceed to get all my money in lol. This was not good poker, but I did it because the villain seemed pretty fishy.

    I don't even know how to put a fishy villain on a range because of the randomness and poor valuing of hands.. Anyways, any bitching/telling me I'm an idiot will be greatly appreciated

    Hand #2:

    Villain showed up with A6o (highlight text to reveal hand), which kind of reinforced my view of his fishiness since he called a 3-bet with it PF.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($9.65)
    BB ($10)
    UTG ($12.63)
    UTG+1 ($27.76)
    MP1 ($10.49)
    Hero (MP2) ($12.08)
    MP3 ($10)
    CO ($10.21)
    Button ($5.94)

    Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J, A
    1 fold, UTG+1 bets $0.45, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.45, 5 folds

    Flop: ($1.05) 5, A, 9 (2 players)
    UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $0.80, UTG+1 calls $0.80

    Turn: ($2.65) A (2 players)
    UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $1.90, UTG+1 raises to $6, Hero raises to $10.83 (All-In), UTG+1 calls $4.83

    River: ($24.31) Q (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Total pot: $24.31 | Rake: $1.20


    PF: I call villain's EP raise with AJo because I know that he values lower Aces too much. His range here is probably fairly tight with the exception of many Aces (A8+?).

    Flop: TP3K and I proceed to bet for value. Vs a range of {55+,A8s+,KQs,A8o+,KQo}, I have 65.599% equity unless my range is inaccurate.

    Turn: He checks to me and I bet for more value. He raises here and I think he has an Ace. Vs a r/r range of {55+,A8s+,KQs,A8o+,KQo}, I have 48.396% equity so I think I should have folded, although if you account for a couple bluffs/idiot hands it'll probably be slightly towards my favor.

    Any input on mistakes in analysis would be greatly appreciated.

    OP: Beginner to Master

    If I bet as a bluff, I should be thinking "am I getting better hands to fold? Is it likely that he will fold x% of the time to a y sized bet to make it +EV?". If I bet for value, I should be thinking "am I getting worst hands to call? Am I ahead of enough of his range that this is a good value bet?".
