Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6880102, member: 305911"] Hand 1: A little no mans land imo as Ax that has a mid kicker is bad since you dont have wheel possibilities and can be dominated by many larger Ax. It is also, though, a decent hand getting a good price from the BB to call when deep. Its a proceed with caution hand but I would call as you do here unless you think villains would fold to a 3 bet often. If so you can steal some pots here but given they will be in position and deep I would think they would call a 3 bet often so I think calling here is fine. Flop: you get 2nd pair which is nothing to write home about but its something. You face a 1/3rd bet from villain on a coordinated board. I think theyre overpairs here would bet a bet more for "protection" so I slightly discount that. Its also a 3 way hand here so you just really have a bluff catcher at this point so I would just call as you do to a small bet. Turn: Pretty much a blank and you face an overbet. Unless we know something about villain here I would just fold. Not really sure what this means with knowing nothing about villain so I would put a note on them and see how they play future hands. If you were to call here then I think you have to call a lot of rivers and you will face another big bet often on the river. Much better to just fold here and see how villain plays in future spots similar to this. Hand 2: Not sure how button raises to 1.6BBs so I will treat it as a min open. Perfectly fine to call with Q10 here and take a flop. You can throw in some 3 bets here too with hands like this and hands that are weaker as well that is going against a button opener. Flop: You flop a straight draw and are facing a very small bet. Villain could have a small piece here like an 8 or a J. I personally dont like raising here as unless we think it will create folds (dont know villain here so cant say how much they would fold) then we are stoking the fire with Q high when we could see a cheap turn. I like just calling here and seeing the turn. Turn: Its a relative blank and again villain bets big on turn (same as hand 1). if it were the same villain here as in hand one than I think I would entertain calling more but would also rather have a pair to bluff catch. You are drawing against the odds here so I would fold. If it was same villain as hand 1 then we can see a pattern here that we can attack in the future but if not, then we just fold without much thought and at least we got to see a cheap turn. [/QUOTE]
