Just hit my $100 BR mark

I started my entire online poker career with $5 free money from poker stars. Grinded out 2NL til $75 and then grinded that $75 into $100 in a few days

Just hit the $100 mark today and I'm really proud of how much I've learned the game. Here's a few hands that confused me though

==============
Hand1
Villain always Cbets.
The reason i used the line i took was because if he had an overpair higher than mine, I was shipping it anyways. And if he had two missed overs, i wanted him to pay full price to hit.

==============
Hand2
Both players almost insta-checked to me. I'm leaning towards not cbetting because 1) there are two other players in the hand, 2) any pair is going to call me here, and 3) two overs are going to float and try to take it away from me on the turn/river.

I feel the right play most of the time is to check behind for a free card and see if we can improve.

==============
Hand3
No actual reads. Hud stats show 3better as 25/5 over small sample size

Should I fold, shove, or call? I feel like calling is a huge leak here, even with position because they will most likely cbet and we'd have to fold unimproved

Congrats dude!

Hand #1: Meh, reads on his opening range would help, but I think you´re way behind his calling range on this flop. A check jam here is a waste of value.

Hand #2: Checking back a low coordinated flop 3way is fine. Thinking that others will float us oop to rep overs on later streets is not. When we cbet here we are the ones looking for high turn or rivercards to represent and double barell.

Hand #3: Flatting is bad, we can´t expect that many dominated Aces/Kings in either of those guys ranges, there´s the threat of UTG+1 4 betting. I don´t mind a fold.

Hand 1: what is he shoving with on the flop? Many agro microplayers will take this line with draws (esp. FD's), but the board isn't coordinated. There's a small chance of a TPTK semi-bluff, but this looks more like strength to me (and I stacked off in a similar situation this weekend - think I played it wrong). Maybe bet/fold the flop with about $.65. Anyone willing to play over the top in this spot has us beat, probably.

Hand 2: Take the free card. Reevaluate.

Hand 3: I HATE these spots. I would 4bet w/ reads they're laggy preflop. No reads ~ meh. Take XTR's advice.


And your progress is absolutely AWESOME. vnh on taking a $5 investment and producing a 2,000% return.

Hand 1: Make a smaller raise for balance and to get worse hands can shove. This hand usually goes badly for you. I usually just call the c-bet and make the turn the decsion point for the hand.

Hand 2: Usually bet, sometimes check. Depends on opponents, image and game texture.

Hand 3: FOLD without a read that AK is good here.
