Today's feature is titled "Losing the value bet war." I was playing against a player who was calling down with a wide wide range of hands. The lowest I saw was Q2o with queen high. On the other hand, he was also calling down with hands like a flopped set and trips. He never bluffed (and almost never bet). I did my best to isolate against him, but unfortunately, the cards didn't come my way. I did a lot of value betting with hands like top pair, overpairs, and the like, but ended up down because he kept turning over monsters. I'm glad that he didn't raise these hands, because if he were aggressive and catching cards the way he was, I'd be down much much more than I am. No detailed hand posts today.

Day 15: +$22.45 (+22 BB at $.50/1)
Overall: +$81.20 in 2307 table minutes
Happy Day-After-Thanksgiving! I had just over 20 people at my place last night for Thanksgiving dinner, and it was great. About half of them were members of Graduate Christian Fellowship at UCSD, and the other half were friends and family of GCF members. I ended up making two turkeys, one baked in the oven and one semi-smoked over the grill. (I say semi-smoked because the first smoke bomb I put in there turned into a fireball, so I don't know how much smokey flavor was actually picked up by the meat.)
I went back up to two tables today for no particular reason. I would really like to develop the ability to switch between two lines of thinking with ease, and I know that if I want to develop this, I should start sooner (low stakes) rather than later (not quite as low stakes). I do notice that when I play two tables, I remember fewer hands that I played. I'm also going to try posting hands via the FTR Hand Converter to see if I like the format better.
Once again, I'm within reach of the next level...
Hand 1:
Preflop: Hero is CO with Ah, Ad.
UTG calls, 1 fold, CO raises, Button calls, SB calls, 1 fold, UTG calls.
Flop: (9 SB) Ac, 8c, 9d (4 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, Button calls, SB calls, UTG calls.
Turn: (6.50 BB) 3s (4 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, Button folds, SB calls, UTG calls.
River: (9.50 BB) 7c (3 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, SB calls, UTG folds.
I guess this is a bad beat. I lost to 52 of clubs. I'm posting this hand simply because after I lost, I had to remind myself that it was a good value bet against a wide range of hands.
Hand 2:
Preflop: Hero is CO with Jh, Ah.
1 fold, MP raises, Hero 3-bets, 1 fold, SB calls, BB calls, MP caps, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls.
Flop: (16 SB) Js, 4s, 2c (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP bets, Hero raises, SB folds, BB calls, MP 3-bets, Hero calls, BB calls.
Turn: (12.50 BB) Qh (3 players)
BB checks, MP checks, Hero checks.
River: (12.50 BB) 8c (3 players)
BB checks, MP checks, Hero bets, BB calls, MP folds.
The turn play really had me confused. MP is a known aggressive player. His preflop raising range is quite wide, but this is the first time that he capped. Given that he capped in a multi-way pot, I assumed that this meant he was more likely to have a legitimate hand. The flop 3-bet seemed to point in this direction as well. But when he checked on the turn, I became concerned that he might have QQ. Aggro players tend not to slow down suddenly unless they have hit a strong hand. I intended to check behind and call a single river bet, but it was checked to me again. BB paid off with T8o and to the best of my knowledge, MP had AK of spades and decided it wise to get to the river cheaply instead of semi-bluffing.
Hand 3:
Preflop: Hero is SB with Kd, Kc.
UTG calls, MP calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, BB calls, UTG calls, MP calls.
Flop: (8 SB) 8d, 7h, 3s (4 players)
SB bets, BB raises, UTG calls, MP folds, Hero 3-bets, BB calls, UTG calls.
Turn: (8.50 BB) 7d (3 players)
Hero bets, BB calls, UTG calls.
River: (11.50 BB) 5h (3 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, UTG raises, Hero calls.
I thought about folding to this river check-raise. Villain in this hand was not particularly aggressive and I had no reason to think he would pull a monster bluff here on the end. But I hate folding overpairs and paid him off. He had 96 of hearts for the OESD.
Hand 4:
Preflop: Hero is BB with Ts, 5s.
2 folds, SB raises, Hero calls.
Flop: (4 SB) As, Qh, Ah (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls.
Turn: (3 BB) 3h (2 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, SB folds.
Villain in this hand was an aggro-stealer. He was an aggressive player already, and in blind situations he seemed to turn it up even more. But he also knew how to fold when it's fairly clear that he's beat. Because his preflop range is so large here, I think this play works very very very often. If he were a showdown monkey (like me), then I think it would be harder to pull this off, as he would be showing down pocket pairs like 55 to win. I might not be playing this hand against such a player... at least not at my current skill level.
Hand 5: I'm posting this one to 2+2 for some feedback.
Preflop: Hero is SB with Tc, 9c.
2 folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.
Flop: (4 SB) Kh, 4h, 9s (4 players)
Hero checks, BB bets, CO calls, Button calls, Hero calls.
Turn: (4 BB) Kd (4 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, CO checks, Button checks.
River: (4 BB) Kc (4 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, CO bets, Button folds, Hero calls, BB folds.
This one gets put in the "I played it strangely" file. From SB, I don't always donk this flop with my hand. I think I would from BB with only two players behind me to act, but with three players it becomes much more marginal (especially if the players are aggressive or otherwise hard to read). I don't recall anything special about BB (a consequence of playing two tables, I think). I'm not quite sure how to handle the turn play. My instinct says that betting is best, but with all the callers and the broadway draws, I'm not sure if I can get away reliably on the river. Once the river gave me a boat, I decided to check-call because I'm pretty sure not many worse hands will call and that the chances of there being only worse hands out there is just too small. But I can check-call because after the turn action there is a decent chance that someone wakes up and tries to bluff the missed draw, especially after some checks.

Finally, after running bad for 5 sessions in a row, I have a decent upswing to pull me up and make me feel good about my playing again. I played a little distracted tonight, chatting online with a friend and on the phone, but it was okay.
Hand 1: I raise A4s UTG, the next player coldcalls, SB calls, and BB folds. The flop is A77 and it's checked to me. I bet, get called, and SB check-raises. SB is a somewhat known aggressive player. His check-raise can be an ace, a worse pocket pair, or total junk. It's rarely a 7. If it's an ace, I run a slight risk of being outkicked and not having the board bail me out. In both other circumstances, I have him drawing very thin. I'm not sure if he would fold if I put more pressure on him, and since this is a way ahead type of situation and since I have position, I decided to let him try to buy the pot from me and just call down. After I called, the coldcaller folded. The turn was a 9, the river an 8, and I lost to JTs hitting runner-runner straight (less than 4%).
Hand 2: This one makes me a little disappointed because I misread the board. I raise KK preflop and flop top set on a flush draw board. I bet and get called in two spots. The turn is an offsuit card, I bet and get called by one player. The river is a flush card, I bet and get check-raised. Sadly, I failed to notice that this card also paired the board, so I missed out on a likely two more BBs to add to my collection.
Hand 3: There is one limper and I raise KJs from the cutoff. The small blind and the limper call, giving us a 3-handed flop. The flop is Q64 with a flush draw for me. It's checked to me and I bet. SB calls and the limper check-raises. At this point, I can either 3-bet (for value and often a free card) or just call and look to raise a turned flush. I decided to go with the 3-bet and got called in both spots. The turn was an offsuit T, giving me the OESD. I took my free card because there was no way I had the best hand and there was no way I was going to make them both fold. The river brought another T, giving me the flush. The flop check-raiser bet into me and I raised. I thought about trying to get an overcall out of the other villain, but the chances of getting a call out of the aggressor are far greater than the chances of getting a call out of the other guy, so I clicked raise. The last player folded out and the aggressor called. He showed Q2o for flopped top pair.
Hand 4: I have K5s in the big blind and it's a 6-handed family pot. The flop is KQ7 giving me top pair and the flush draw. I lead out, get raised, get 3-bet, and I choose to cap it because the players in this hand are a little LAGgy. The turn is my flush card, and it gets capped again, although one player ended up all-in halfway through. The river is a 2 of bonus flush and I bet, hoping not to run into the the A. It was called and I laugh at the button limper's KK and the all-in's Q6o.
Hand 5: There's an early raise, a few callers, and I call with QJs. There are 5 of us to the flop. It comes down Q98 with a backdoor flush draw for me. It's checked to me and I check, anticipating that the aggressor would bet so that I could evaluate the action from the rest of the table. Instead, it gets checked around. The turn is a 3, and I bet it, getting called in two spots. The river is a 5, I bet again, and get called once. I win the pot.

Overall: +$27.10 in 2049 table minutes
I probably only played a B game today. There are a number of spots where I should have folded, knowing I was beat, but decided to call.
Hand 1: I raise AJs from the small blind after three limpers. The flop is a 5-handed J53 with a flush draw and I lead out. There's one caller and an aggressive player raises. The aggressive player has been playing pretty erratically, pushing weaker hands and nothing hands and so on. I 3-bet him and get heads up. The turn is an ace of flush, and I continue to push. Now villain raises. I'm not folding top two here, so the question is whether I should continue to push for value or aim to get to showdown. After some deliberation, I decide the get-to-showdown route is better because he's not all-crazy-all-the-time. I check-call the meaningless offsuit 6 on the river and he turns over AK with the K of flush and I take down the pot.
Hand 2: I raise AJo UTG and get coldcalled in two spots plus BB. The flop is KQ8. It's checked to me, I check, and watch it get checked through. This is not a good spot to c-bet because the coldcalls are very bad news for me on this board. I'm actually a little surprised it got checked through. THe turn is an A and it's checked to me again. This time, I bet and called in two spots. The river is a 3 and I bet again, getting called in both spots again. I beat a worse ace (A4o) and a K (BB's hand).
Hands 3-4: From the "keeping me down" file. I have J3s in the BB and flop two pair. Value bet, value bet, and got checked-raised on the river by someone hitting a gutshot. In another hand, I raise AJo and flop my ace. Value bet, value bet, river a jack that gives villain a gutshot straight.
I'm a little tired, so I won't post any other hands tonight.

I played a second session today, and it went worse than the first. I like one-tabling much more than two tabling, but I'm not doing so well at it. At least, the results are going down even though I feel my play is going up. I call it variance. It's only 4 losing sessions in a row and I'm still up overall, but it's a little bit annoying.
Hand 1: I open-raise A7o from CO and get called by SB. BB 3-bets it, I call, and SB caps. BB is an aggressive player, but not stupid, but SB is a bit crazy. The flop is AJ9 and crazy leads out. BB raises and I make the easy fold to avoid AJ going nuts against J9.
Hand 2: Here's an interesting KK hand. It's raised ahead of me and I 3-bet from the button. We see the flop heads up. The flop is AQ2 with a flush draw. Villain donks into me. He is an aggressive player who can be donking a lot of hands. It could be an ace, a queen, a flush draw, a straight draw, or maybe even JJ. I decide that it's often enough not an ace that I can proceed with the hand. The debate was between calling and raising. I decide to go with the "free showdown" option of raising the turn because he's not crazy. If he has a draw, he'd be forced to call the raise, but if he 3-bets me I can easily dump my hand. So the I raise the offsuit 7 turn card and check behind on the ace river. He turned over QJo. I wonder if a river value bet could have been a good play...
Hand 3: I raise JTo from the button against a poor playing opponent. Sadly, both blinds call and it's 4 to the flop. Happily, I flop 978 for the nut straight, though there's a flush draw. The poor playing villain donks into me, there's a caller, and I raise. The poor playing villain 3-bets and the guy in the middle coldcalls. At this point, it's appropriate to say a couple words about poor playing villain. I have seen him completely overplay draws (gutshot and flush draws) on both the turn and the river. He may also overplay weak made hands, but I haven't had much verification on this just yet. The reason I wanted to isolate with him is because I know he's capable of spewing a whole lot of chips my way if I flop anything decent (like a pair of tens). I decide that it's likely that any hand he's betting now will also be bet on the turn if I just call, so I call intending to raise any non-flush card. Sadly, the turn is a 4 of flush and he leads (as expected). The middle player folds and I just call down. He turns over K7s and I lose another hand.
Hand 4: I raise 88 from the small blind against a limper and we a 3-handed flop. It comes down 982 with a flush draw. Bet-call-call. The turn is a 6 bringing a second flush draw. Bet-call-call. The river is a 3 of the first flush and I bet and get raised. The phone rang and I accidentally clicked raise while reaching for the phone. Fortunately, he only calls and shows me a J7s for the flush, instead of capping me (I'd probably fold to the cap at least 75% of the time...).
