This is how to hit and run.

[@matthewsell1889]

Always good to get a double up early in the session. I was in Vegas earlier this week, mainly 1-3 at the Venetian, but played a couple of 2-5 sessions at the Bellagio. At the Bellagio the table composition was mostly solid players in town for WSOP, felt like I was the fish at the table. Very crowded and long wait lists (over flow of tables to the sports book). Probably not ideal for a player like me taking at shot at 2-5, but I still managed to come away with a profit from the trip (as well as COVID ugh!).

[@panicpoker]

@@matthewsell1889 Glad to hear you had a profitable trip! Sorry to hear about the life run bad with Covid though. That sucks. Hope it wasn’t too serious of a case and you’re feeling better!

[@jonathansykes4986]

AJ hand.. Solver does want you to bet small on flop ~$15 (3bb) with entire range. Turn is check with entire range except for T9s and some other hands at low frequency. Solver wants you to fold this hand on the turn facing 1/2 pot. Although it wants you to check/call river? I have no clue anymore. River should be a slam dunk fold. Honestly this is probably a fold turn spot, you have better check/call hands (AxJs, AQ, Tx, KJ) here and even if you do improve to a non spade K, you're in a tough spot to a pot size bet on river where you have to call anyways. and if they have a T and river is T, you're calling anything. So yeah turn is a spot where you make a tight exploitive fold.

[@jonathansykes4986]

86s, 20 preflop (or $25). Flop is a must bet. You have all AK, KK, AA in range and A5s and sometimes 55. Turn now you're in a tricky spot because now BB could be valuing everything and you represent nothing but K7, A7, 77 if you choose to raise here whereas you can also have a number of heart draws and/or 98/86/64. If you did raise here for a bluff, I'd pick hands like 98/QJ/JT/QT that don't have hearts in them. As played, call is best. River. Probably close between shutting down and betting pot (or over pot size bets). You can have all hands that contain Kx (K8-KQ). you shouldn't have that many bluffs outside of the broadway ones. There is no way BB has a K and UTG would bet a K. So their range usually should be capped at Ax hands (at best AQ, which I'd rather have A9 than AQ since one have AQ blocks a lot of your QJ/QT combinations). I wonder if this is a spot where you can just jam all-in

[@panicpoker]

I think pot size or slightly over pot size bet on River gets the job done. I like bet small on the flop, small on the turn, and overbet River.

[@nicholi2789]

Agree. You raised in position and got an AK high flop. You also had lots of cards that would improve your hand on the turn (any diamond, 5,7, etc) you gotta bet that flop. Your raise size was also too small. Add 1x for every limper as well. $20-$25 would be good there as the original commenter already said.

[@jonathansykes4986]

@@panicpoker it's hard critiquing this hand honestly. running it through a solver is tough because of utg, but even vs bb and bb's normal call range, it does prefer checking back on flop and going for 2x pot bets with value and bluffs (QJo/QTo/JTo and other random hands with low equity and 22-66 hands). However, if turn was check, it does like barrelling this hand for full pot.

[@jonathansykes4986]

AA hand, just if you're going to bet, which is debatable since you have few 7x hands whereas BB has a lot, betting small is preferable i think. Turn is a must bet. He either has a Q which is folding to river (unless river is Q), or he has a 7 which you should want to get stacks in.

[@panicpoker]

@@jonathansykes4986 checking on turn was just fancy play syndrome.

[@Poker-in-VR]

Wow that 4,3 offsuit call ... was that one of the 'action' players? I know in VR people say they get bored as a reason why they play pockets like that, what's your experience in live games and advice to new players playing too many hands simply because it's "boring"otherwise?

[@panicpoker]

It was one of the action players. My advice to new players is to focus on what other players are doing when you’re not in the hand. Just because you’re not playing your hand doesn’t mean you’re not still in the game. If you pay attention, you will rarely get bored.

[@MaydayAggro]

Last comment, I promise. 86s: I think I bet tiny on the flop and then bet big on turn if we're not still MW (otherwise check and take your equity). (Also, of course, bigger pre.) AJs: I think villain has many more Qx hands than Tx hands. This hand shows why aggression is so important. Obviously you do not have a flush here, so villain could be betting anything. I doubt he is bluffing often enough, but could he be betting Jx? I think so because you have been way too passive to have a good hand. Probably the right laydown at the end, but could it have gone differently if you had been more aggressive early? Maybe.... 99: Nice overbet on the turn. I would have bet smaller on the flop vs so many players. AKs: Good Goone-y x-raise on the flop. 44: I'd bet smaller on the flop - 20.

[@panicpoker]

Goone-y check/raise? 😂 is that a patented Hungry Horse play? AJs I think I might end up value-owning myself if I get too aggressive. Maybe two streets of value? I doubt he is bluffing often especially on the river. Turn maybe a bluff but I think a lot of his Qx hands with a spade get there on the river. Smaller bet sizes on the flop in multiway pots is in my study.

[@MaydayAggro]

@@panicpoker yeah. He likes checking a lot from up front and then raising with value and draws. With AJ, it's definitely a difficult spot, so it can go either way. I just prefer to be aggressive early so I am a little more sure of where I'm at when villain bets later in the hand.

[@nicholi2789]

I think you made the right call changing to the Bellagio 2/5 and giving up on the 1/3. The 2/5 there is good and plays like a bigger 1/3. I still think you aren’t playing aggressive enough but you’re improving for sure

[@panicpoker]

I’m

[@panicpoker]

@@nicholi2789 I’m really happy with the decision to move up to the $2/5 game. It does play very similarly to $1/3 but because it’s bigger you can actually post a decent hourly win rate.

[@doneliasson4672]

14th

[@Hikingguy359]

You said you left because the game got bad. How do you describe a good game? Also, are you only playing 2/5 at Bellagio and no more 1/3?

[@panicpoker]

@@Hikingguy359 A good game is one where there are at least 2 weak players at the table who are calling way to much preflop, don’t understand position at all, and tend to call flops and turns too often as well. When those players leave and are replaced by regular players you see all the time, the game just got bad. Right now my focus is on $2/5 but I will occasionally play $1/3 games. Probably $1/3 at Aria or Wynn as those are $500 max vs $300 max at Bellagio.

[@mtnflyer9859]

I AM, I AM!

[@chrissymccullough]

[@jonathansykes4986]

and you can have a session where you get the top right corner of the deck for half of your hands and lose a couple buy-ins 😞

[@panicpoker]

We’ve all had those sessions

[@MaydayAggro]

Why the raise to 15 after a limper? If you really are trying to isolate, you should use a bigger size.

[@panicpoker]

Agreed, I should make it $20 here.

[@mtnflyer9859]

Am I first!? Am I first!?

@@mtnflyer9859 you did it!! You’re number 1!! ☝️
