QJs xr

Hi legand,

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: your ranges should depend on what assumptions you are going in with... Raising a hand that has some equity is definitely better than raising something like A9o here.

Also, you need to defend more vs guys that seem to bet a lot, like this guy may be doing.

There are a lot of hands that can improve our equity w/ our hand and being out of position i'm expecting more calls.

Normally i'm planning to x/call when we hit top pair and continue aggression on clubs, T/K and A but of course we also need to consult our assumptions to determine how to proceed once we get called. There are a few draws that call us. Not really sure about overcards though. If we expect overcards to call us then perhaps our plan isn't that solid since we'll be continuing on highcards (that he will be hitting) and when we do our Q/J hit we might in fact be dominated so there might be some domination issues there.

And vs a guy that we might expect to bet a lot we have the option of bluff catching, giving us hands to x/call down w/.

One thing to keep in mind is that your equity is only important if you expect calls.... if he 3-bets or folds than your equity is not as relevant (from the same point of view) because you don't get to realize any of it (assuming you don't actually go with the hand which you wouldn't do here).

Hi Bogdan,

I don't like to x/r this Flop because we only represent set, 2 pairs, 56(straight) and draws. I mean our range is bluff heavy. I noticed that villain is c-bet so much. So, he will fold very often to raise but raising is too expensive for me.
how do you think about x/c Flop and x/f Turn if villain bet again?
