His donk bet could be Kx, I think he should be fish, because regs rarely do this donkbet.
Also could be some Jx and draw. Or 3rd pair.
I was considering raiseing with my GS. But decided that vs fish I dont want to risk.

Hand is only NL10 but shows a situation I think I'm bad in.
Villain is 21/17 on 143 hands. He has 10.9 overall 3bet spread over BTN, SB and BB
no sample for foldvscbet only just 50% on 2 examples. small aggression samples he bets about half the time on all streets.
only 23 hands on villain, 36/32 guy limited other sample. Decided to slowplay on megadry flop. Confused on river as I put a lot of Ax in his range, what I wanted bluffs from with my slowplay.
unknown
I think he calls with lot of draws, PPs and I think there is not much low PPs which he could fold on turn, 55 22 has hit.
So give up turn.
River - he might have busted draws, but there ares some backdoors which completed. What do you think about call?
38/13 9h
Preflop - zoom they fold a lot, so I open wide in CO.
Flop bet looks big and on this board he he has good equity. Still I have to call I decided and reevaluate.

I think i palyed this wrong 
another flop check situation albeit a somewhat different one. There is a 35/28 player I was considering a mark on the SB.
BU is 16/11 on 143 hands 0/14 BU 3bet so far. his 3bet stat is 6% overall. He actually has pretty low aggression stats so far, 18% flop (1/2 bet IP vs missed cbet), 38% turn, and 24% river.
1/3 fold vs cbet, all have been OOP.
http://weaktight.com/5987523
BB 19/17/5% 3bet overall;3bet BB 15,4% from 39 opportunities;3bet vs BTN 13% (from 38 opportunities);350 hands;readless
Do you think stabbing turn vs missed tcb is waste of potential of my hand?
420 hands 23/19 WTS 25
fold to cb 40% flop , fold to cb tu 67% , fold to river bet 60
3b vs CO 1/32 3%
He raises me ALOT on dry boards
he never thin value raises TPTK etc.
hes super polarised on these boards
(from what ive seen in previous hands)
can I play no fold'em here as I did?
I think the worst hand he will valuebet is Kx and he might even check that back, i dont have too many reads to know exactly how he plays
but yeah I think worst hand is Kx
but i think he has a fortune of air when he ch/rai flop
also his turn sizing, he pot bluffed turn before, so thats something that made me inclined to call turn
if a spade comes are you folding?
I definitely think he has spades in his range
I think his flop ch/rai range mostly consists of 33 44 34s 99 spade draws and air
One mistake I believe I made is my flop sizing too, any thoughts?
Dude had stats...

I calculated that even there are a lot of Kx and Qx hands, in his range there is a LOT of junk so I was thinking mine JJ is fine. like a lot Ax and a lot of junk....
Villain is a maniac, he's been absolutely beating me up but only because he's been coolering me like crazy. He definitely has momentum though.
His 3b is 35% over 500 hands, he has extremely low fold to 4b, does not like to fold flop at all. Does fold a fair bit to turn continuation, however this time he decides to take the lead.
Preflop sizing is of interest to me too, I only took this particular sizing because I knew it was a sizing he was flatting, didn't want to try a bigger sizing with this hand and see him fold.
100NL zoom hand from a friend of mine:
guessing opponent is unknown. I'm sure i'll be corrected on that if he isn't.
Hey guys,
It's going to be me this Monday since Dustin will likely be busy. Like I mentioned last time, I want to get you involved more actively so you can apply for private coaching with public viewing. The conditions to apply are:
1) WORKING MIC!
2) Good Internet connection (not needed to be very fast but stable)
3) OK English (it's in English community, although in private coachings I can handle explaining very slowly and repeating, I'd like to maintain a certain flow here).
How will I choose who wins? Well, I want you to post a hand in this thread with your thought process and I will choose based on that. I want to bust the myth of 'You cannot bluff at micros'! Post a hand for NL50 and below of a bluff and your thought process and I will choose who joins me on Monday! 
I didn't have any relevant stats.
People tend to 3bet to lite from BU.
As you see I open raise KQof as standard. BU 3 beted me. I was thinking like this. KQof is strongest range of mine CO open. And idea was not to call, Idea was to 4bet bluff.
Part of his range that would fold is random trash hands/3 bet bluff hands. In case that he call I got blockers, and people tend to call more pocket pairs than suited connectors.
HE called. ( I am not to happy. )
Flop is T93 rainbow.
I have gut-shot. Usualy bc I did 4bet bluff I would give up a hand. But this spot was like too perfect to Cbet as bluff. Bc I tihnk he will fold ( Huge part of his range ) all his small pairs 22-88, I think he will fold all hands that are dominating me. AK, AQ... If he did called, and I dont hit mine J, its automatic fold from that point on....
He folded on flop.
As I played that hand, Better players maybe would fold JJ-QQ but only if we have BIG history between us.
(in that hand I used fact that villain and me don't have history, he don't have any idea of mine 3 bet/4bet frequencies, so I tried to use mine weakness of not knowing him, as advantage. He doesn't know me too )
Why should you pick me for coaching?
1. When I do something I tend to be in top of that field. ( when I played LOL game ( MOBA ) I was Diamond player... less than 0,5% of all players )
2. I am coming to the top. I decided. Failure is not an option. So you can make it faster and assist me on mine way, and get a new friend along the way.
3. When I teach people how to pick up chicks, mine biggest fear is to teach people who don't appreciate it and who don't listen when I speak. I can assure you, you wont waste your time with me.
Ok, this one is fairly simple:

Flop: ($0.24) T:s 8:d 8:h (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $0.04, Hero calls $0.04
The min-bet is a common tactic. It tells me, "I have overcards, possibly a pair, but I didn't really hit this board"
Trappers are rare here, but they do exist.
I haz oesd so I call such a small bet. I think x/r is overplaying at this point, but sometimes I do that too.
Turn: ($0.32) 3:h (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $0.22, Hero calls $0.22
This card changes nothing
River: ($0.76) A:s (2 players)
Hero bets $0.80, BB folds
Slightly overbetting the pot on the A should fold out most of his small pairs and non-A overcards.
Since I called 2 streets and Bet R I could also have an 8
I don't put him on an 8 because it is very rare that they bet so small w/ a made hand. He may also have picked up a FD on the turn.
If I'm allowed to post two hands...
Here is a hand that is very typical of the short-stackers playing NL 5 Speed

Hi guys, hi Emanuel, I searched for a bluff attempt and I couldn't manage to find a successful one, cause I lost my database like 3 weeks ago.
This one is at NL10, vs a passive semi-fish ( 33/0 on a 80 hands sample )

I gave him too much credit in this situation and also missread his hand.His line was really weird, that's why I decided to bluff.

Ok so I decide to defend my bb with 89o (yes I am a fish)
The flop comes down 777 and I check to the raiser who bets the pot. I don't think he bets the pot here with a big pair ever as he loses a lot of value by not letting me hit, or he has a small pair in his hand and wants to protect against me hitting a bigger full house, I call.
The turn comes a Q. I check and he bets just over half the pot and I decide to min check raise as I think this shows a lot of strengh like im trying to get more value out of my turned full house, i suppose I could be doing it with quads as well but i don't expect to get credit for a 7 in my hand, he calls and we go to the river.
On the river when the 10 hits im still trying to rep the Q and rather than betting big I go for what looks like a value bet. (I do love a value bet bluff)
A nice healthly 28bb profit.

MP seems a bit fishy, so I iso 3bet him, when he donks pot, OTF its usally draw, or weak made hand like 22-99, or weak T at best. I have gutshot, two overs and bd flush draw, and position, I am never folding this here, OT blank T he bets 1/5 pot so I think his range is just the same I put him OTF, no need to raise him here, IMO, OTR I do not improve and he bets same amount, I just shove for maximum FE, It vould be a pity to be called by T7s, but Tx is a tiny part of his range IMO and either fish sometimes realize they are beat. I think I vould have played TT 8x same way, with overpairs I vould have made tiny raise OTT to charge his draws and induse.

PREFLOP
So villain 3bet's all kinds of crap + weak hands - KTs plays well IP vs a wide range.
FLOP
Small cbet likely means a weak pair/Ax type of hand - decided to float with BDFD/BDSD.
TURN
Decided to attack villain's small bets by repping a flush + I had a weak GS.
RIVER
Villain's turn bet calling range is likely Ax/Kx with a ♦. Since another ♦ didn't show up I bluffed vs those high cards expecting to get a lot of folds as villain's range is very weak.

I would be a good candidate for the coaching because:
1. I help with hand evaluations for other English community members so others will benefit in an indirect way as well.
2. I'm confident with my spoken English skills and am able to present my ideas in a clear and structured way.
