    were these two plays bad? same tournament 5 hands apart
  2. First one is kind of hard to fold unless you can squarely put him on KcJx or Ac8x...don't think 8x9c or whatever play like this except strictly the first 2 I mentioned...he could just be making a last ditch effort, altho at this level they miraculously have it almost always. 2nd one he just lol played it bad....both actually. So, I think both were fine...just dumb riggaments.
  3. 1st hand I'm betting more on the turn since that board couldn't possibly be more drawy. The river is pretty annoying. That's a value bet 95% of the time. I prob shrug/call there way more than I should... folding just has to be better.

    2nd hand is wp imo.

  4. cant tell if im just playing bad or not. can't make a significant amount of money anymore and seems like its always things like this that happen. maybe its just because i dont play near as much as i used to and variance.

  5. Imho I am jamming on the turn to avoid his str8t possible. I think you just let him makeit by your betting. I suck so I dunno.lol.peace.
  6. I think you played the second hand well. ul.
  7. Only thing i'd chage is the turn bet in the first hand. I'm prob shoving to make him pay if he wants to draw. Just unlucky. Second hand is just a station getting rewarded.
