I�ve chosen this topic because i suspect playing on the river is my biggest leak.

Compared to the micro-limits winning or losing this one BB makes a huge difference to be a winning or losing player at 0.5/1.

in short: i want to get away from my downswing or whatever by optimizing my game.

I don�t use pt/pa.

The way I saw it in this cases my opponents have been weak tight / loose passive.

Please don�t post "bet" or "c/c" only but give reasons too.

Thank you very much!

Edit: i see that i played hand no.7 completly wrong. rereaise preflop - wrong move on the flop.

1. Bet for value. To me, it doesn't look like there's a queen out there, maybe an ace high type hand or a smaller pp.

2. That's tough. I think your only real threat right now is that he's holding a small pp. I probably check this, but I'm not sure what's correct.

3. Bet for value. Ace obviously scared the BB, unless he's a really thinking player,you have him beat now.

4. Bet for value. I smell a busted FD!

5. Check behind. Honestly, with 7bb in the pot he's probably not going to throw this one away, and we really can't assume ace high is best more than 50% of the time.

6. Check unless you have real reads... I hate hands like this.

7. check//call if he's tight/passive, bet if he's loose/passive. Self explanatory kinda.


I agree with LastEmu about the riverplay.

4. call preflop ... only re-raise if he has PFR 30% +

5. Reraise Flop is ok for freecards at the turn and the river, but then check turn, check/fold River as your FD did not hit.
