What u want to hear from judge when guy oversets you?

At 2c2h (set on flop) I would advise you making turn bet about 55% - 60% not full 90%. To induce a bluff from his flush draws +now he could be able to call with his pocket pairs 77-QQ + he could decide to turn some his made hands in bluff.

At QcQh (cold 4bet pre flop) - is that your standard 4bet size? a 2.25bb - 2.5bb would be better
since than you can more profitable include 4bet bluffs + your hand looks weaker.

All other stuff standard.

Next time please make each hand - in a new thread.

I was curious and wanted to ask judge does including a link for example your facebook page that is not commercial but only for fun purpose is against forum rules or not?

i'm pretty sure that you just want some comfort so i'll tell you what you want to hear: yes, you ran bad, at least as far as these hands are concerned. move on~

the guy looks a lot like an aggrofish and he 3bet to 20 BB (!!)
balance doesn't matter here, any sizing that commits both of you to pretty much any flop is fine.

that happens SO much less often than we'd like to think. in practice almost no one turns anything into a bluff at low limits.

i do agree that the bet sizing is quite on the higher side, but as a general point it's better to bet too big than to bet too small with monsters, since most people will make most of their postflop mistakes by calling too much rather than folding too much.

i don't really know about this one, rather ask forum moderators.

from what i know (and i actually have no clue) it's ok as long as it is from a trusted domain and doesn't conflict with pokerstrategy's interests.

Ok about the 22 set hand - even if he doesn't turns his made hands in to a bluff this is a great card for him to bluff check raise with his draws. Now when we bet so weak. Since our range now looks like mostly pp 77-JJ and draws.

24/22 - af.2.1. he isn't the passive one and from his vpip/pfr I can tell that he knows what playing aggressive means.

About QQ - Well from 6 hands it's hard to say that he is a agro fish, but yh I guess the 20bb 3bet looks weird but I would anyway stick with 2.25x-2.5x and than just check/raise AI any Jxx> board.

Don't you think that a 4bet in range of 2.25x-2.5x would induce more a lighter shove from him than a 3$ raise ?

i think "pp and draws" is more likely to be villain's range, don't think hero should raise weak overpairs on the flop and don't think we are perceived to.
our perceived range is more like sets, some ♦ and ♠, sometimes 55-44, def depends on villain's postflop tendencies... floating with most draws can often be better, you can also raise TT+ for value if you know how he plays, i don't do it as default since facing a flop 3bet would be awkward.

we could argue about betting smaller because the turn is an overcard to a lot of villain's pairs, so that he isn't as inclined to fold 77-JJ.
villain c/r'ing the turn with his own draws looks spewy to me.

yeah, i'd check on the number of tables that he's playing. that said, 20bb 3bet almost always means fish or a sick misclick
in this hand it doesn't really matter which 4bet sizing you use because anything reasonable will already leave you with an under potsize bet on the flop.

i do prefer putting in more money preflop though (like 3x 4bets or even higher against fish), because they most often call or shove any reasonably pretty hand that they decided to 3bet. hand is an example
we might be inducing a few lighter shoves, but i think we make more money overall by putting in more money preflop as long as he calls too much pre (which is mostly true imo) -> we gain more when he doesn't hit and folds and we gain more when he hits whatever and feels more pot commited.
