Hero ?????
pot(0,35+0,35+0,15+0,35+0,15=1,35$)
#1
2 Options
A.) 3bet him if he folds to 3bet too much
B.) Call since he's opening 30% and KQ plays very good against his range.
#2
I'll just fold it we're OOP against a nit and most of his range dominate us he's gonna have QQ/AQ/AK/KK/AA here most of the time.
#3
Call to set mine and play against loose button. c/f missed flops.
#4
Fold since BB squeezes a lot. Gonna be hard to play OOP.
#5
Fold. We might get in trouble with higher flushes and better straights plus we are OOP gonna be hard to play.
#6
Think it's an easy call we are priced in.
#7

everybody unknown
now the last one is really tricky
Hero is in BB with j

utg folds
mp folds
cu folds
BU (5$) raises to 0.2$
SB (5$) 3bets to 0.6$
Hero (5$) ????
#1: Reraise because he raises with 30% of his hands and this is going to be even looser at the button.
Sometimes i like to call and donk the flop in these kind of situations if i know they are more likely to fold postflop.
#2: Just fold, no need to mess with a tight player. You just end up being out of position and dominated by hands like AQ
#3: I hate these kind of hands, out of position and if you the flop comes with ace,king,queen my oponent is likely to have a better hand.
Currently playing NL2 and if NL5 is similar we might bet and both players call, then our fold equity is messed up.
I prefer to fold, just because it keeps me from getting into though spots.
#4: I will fold in this situation, same reason as last hands, just dont like getting into a big pot with multiple oponents, lots of tricky spots.
#5: I usually fold here as well, but i guess you can call if you think there are opportunities to get the other players all-in when you have straight/flush.
I am playing NL2 FR so i understand that when playing SH you can get a little looser with the range of hands you are playing. But for me it has been working good to just play the good hands. Getting into big pots with mariginal hands requires some good statistics, and if you do it wrong you are going to get punished 
Thanks for the session. Definitely learnt some very useful stuff. If there's a space to fill in the coming weeks, I'd be very interested in an analysis of playing vs donk bets against varying types of villain.
Have a good weekend!
I would like to see a game, something along the lines of, ok what range do we put villain on here now that he called our pf raise and called our cbet?
Or a guess our equity game.
I know you do a great job of these, but just for a change, let's see if we can do it...with coach's support of course!?
Via a hand history, if it would get in the way of a live session, perhaps?
Just a thought, I know there are materials and hand evals, etc., but this could be learning to do it on the fly for 'real, with a time constraint even.
Regards,
Mal.
I agree with gadget, that would be awesome ♠_cool:
When analyzing a hand you can sit there and think for as long as you want, but if we have a session where you guess equity and later analyze it so we can see how wrong/right we where.
Because there is no use in knowing things afterwards, you have to be able to apply it when you are at the table 
i am sooo sry that i could do the coaching today.
my best friend just broke with his girlfriend and he needed me to talk and drink....
i hope you can understand that.
i will talk to sven if we can do the coaching another day....
1.
PREFLOP
NL SH 5$
HERO is in CU with A J
utg fold
MP(5$) [Vpip 35, PFR 30, AF 3.0, Hands 250] raises to 0.15$
HERO(5$) ???
SB(5$) unknown
BB(5$) unknown
A) Hero 3bets to 0.45$ because A :heart:J is far ahead his raising range. 3points
B) Hero calls because he is in position and the hand plays well in position.
2points
C) Hero folds.
1point
D) Hero calls because he hopes that on of the blinds will reraise again and we can trap them.
0points
2.
PREFLOP
Same situation as above.
This time Hero got A 8
A) This hand is trash and is not worth playing against a raise
3p
B) This hand is 50% equity against a 30% open raising range so i can call hero
0p
C) This hand is 50% equity so i can 3bet him and hope he folds, and even if not i got 50%
1p
D) This hand is 50% equity but it has a very good playability as well so i call here.
0p
3.
Flop play.
Hero is in the BU and called a raise against an unknown MP raiser for 0.15$ with 7 7
The BB called as well and now we are 3 handed on the flop.
SB (4$) unknown
MP( 5.40$) unknown
HERO (5.20$) known
Flop (0.47$)
7 A 8
SB checks
MP bets 0.47$
Hero ?????
A) we got a set here but the board is dangerous, so hero reraises to 1.20$
3p
B) well if we call now, there is a decent chance the SB jumps is as well and we can win a monster pot. Hero calls 0.47$
1p
C) Hero folds because there is the danger of two oversets
0p
D) we got a set but the board is really dangerous and there is an ace showing. so NOW is the time to strike and get as much money in as possible. Hero goes ALL IN
1p
4.
Flop play again.
Hero raised preflop A T from MP and got called from the SB and the BB.
Noth blinds are fishy and usually really likes to be agressive.
SB (4$)
BB (6$)
Hero (5$)
Flop (0.45$)
A 2 Q
SB bets 0.30$
BB calls 0.30$
Pot now 1.05$
A) Hero calls because he might have the best hand, but its not strong enough for a raise.
1p
B) Hero folds. 2 players have interest in the hand and we only got a T kicker. there will be better chances later on to get the money, so we fold.
0p
C) Heros hand is good here. both are fishy. so it we very likely got the best hand here. there is a flush draw out there so lets raise and see what happens. Hero raises 1.3$
2p
5.
Turn play
SAME HAND AS ABOVE.
Hero just called (wether it was good or not)
Turn(1.35$)
A 2 Q T
SB bets 0.80$ (SB got 2.90$ left)
BB folds
HERO ????
A) well we got two pair now, and the board gets even more ugly. Save some money, just call and get to the showdown cheaply. Hero calls.
1p
B) we got two pair, our opponent is still a lose agressiv fish, so lets get it started now before another card kills the action and he doesnt like his ace anymore. Hero raises (and because this commits us and him to the pot its an all in
2p
C) SB bettet the flop against 2. Now he bets the turn against two allthough the flush get there... tiome to save our stack and fold.
0p
