Cool, thanks I'll give it a look.
I got basically no work done today because we were evacuated from my office because of a gas leak. I think I lost some hearing today from the all of the alarms in every room and office. It was crazy loud.
We should get moving on the next section this week for Vol. II.

party poker have these 'fun' cash tables where you are only allowed to have one cash table open at a time, they are rammed with fish. I usually only play here on a Sat during the CC 250k entry freeroll.
I'm not sure about the way I played this hand, it can't have been all bad as I stacked him. Its almost as if I irritated him into a shove in the end....Thoughts?
I'd already stacked a couple and have the respect of the table.The BB is the only other reg who likes to 3 bet and squeeze.

Handling QQ in 4 bet pots
I'm struggling with how to play QQ here.

Full hitman hud
19/15/38 in 115 hands

I struggle alot with overpairs to maximise value or minimise losses
If you bet turn and he shoves then you are already committed.
You both have around $22 so Id bet $14 and if he has Pairs of 789TJKA hes shoving.
If River was A or K are you still calling the $13.95 and what if he shoved $22 do you still Call.
I struggle with these hands when deeper do you just get to showdown ot take it down on turn and deprive him of his equity if he has AK about 13%

No... I like a 4-bet call with position. If he is 4-betting a lot light, then just keep that range in and let him hang himself.
It depends of course. If this was a 3-bet pot, then you're betting all day on these low board because there's still lots of mid pairs that will look good to your opponent and come along, but might fold the river. So you want to get value now. In a 4-bet pot at these stakes, I don't mind a check when the opponent is aggressive. You're checking planning to induce a river bet and control the pot.
The rest is standard. I think you played it well. There are some standard betting tells at these stakes that he doesn't have much. He 4-bets and then bets pretty weak on that flop and checks the turn. He'll be almost always super weak.

Flop 11.35 Eff. STack about $29
If A or K hits flop do you call one bet then fold if they bet the turn as well.
Say they Bet $8 on 34K board then $18 into $27 on Turn. Do you fold unless Q hits.
Just wondering what fraction of your stack are happy about calling preflop and then happy to give up when Bad board on flop

It depends of course based on flop, opponent, etc... in terms of what I'd invest and then fold. As a general rule, if I've pot 55% or more in, then I consider myself committed, but that's a general rule. In your specific example, I wouldn't call 2 streets in a 4-bet pot on that flop. I think your opponents are going to be playing much more straight forward, and if he did 4-bet with JJ, then he'd slow down on the turn. So it's pretty easy to play those spots. I think at those stakes you have to minimize leveling yourself and tip your hat if someone is making some elaborate multi-street bluff in a 4-bet pot. Later on... this is going to change a bit.

That's always fun! Don't you love poker? It looks almost exactly like I had yesterday except the guy had 99 on a J high flop and got it to hit the river 9 vs my KK. All you can do it get it in good...

When you said 55% or more do you mean preflop so 100BB Deep if you had invested 55BB in preflop with say JJ and flop was AK2 youd call the other 45BB when they shoved the flop.
Or do you mean including the flop bet so u might invest 35% PF and 20% on the flop so thats 55%

OK so on the AK2 you are calling the 45
Because A or K will hit flop over 40% isnt it best to just get it in preflop

What do you guys think about the large turn bet? I bet large because he checked the low paired board. Folding to a jam.

Hi John,
I just thought i'd post this here because my email account has been playing up recently. I have downloaded your leak buster software and attempted to register for the free trial. However it is asking me for my serial number, do you mean my computer's serial number? Because i looked this up and my serial number had a different number of digits to as shown on the register screen. Was wondering what exactly you mean by serial number?

You don't need to register Leak buster to use the trial. You just use it. Which version is this for, HM or PT?

The fact that player 1 called 1.82 on the flop indicates to me that he has hit part of it at this point. We have a ten blocker so hitting the 7 looks more likely. In any case if he has a ten we are going to be outkicked. Then he bets big on the river.
He probably has a 7 or ten and are beat by both..... I fold.
I did consider whether or not we could check raise this flop with top pair and two backdoor draws, there will be plenty of cards that should allow us to fire again on the turn.

Re the double barrel. I just compared KJ to a 26% opening range and KJo is a 44% to 56% underdog so you are likely to be behind at the start of the hand. If you are going to play may as well 3bet and try to get the initiative.
Once he has called here you are almost certainly behind, I suspect 99 TT JJ are in his 3bet calling range so you better hope he buys the 'bluff package'. It's more believable in a 3 bet pot i suppose. If I had AK/AQ in his shoes I'd give it up on the turn.
If I was in his shoes with TT/JJ it might need a third barrel from you, and hope an overcard to his hand falls.
In my eyes, with the combo count it, would be to me more likely that you are barreling AK/AQ as have JJ beat. It depends on how he sees you, how often have you 3bet the btn and what what you have shown down on the btn and how agg you have been recently. If you have been aggressive and capable of 3 barreling air I might call you down with an overpair to the board.
