Poor session

After 1 hour of play, I quit because I knew I was playing very poorly.

dont know why u checked the turn on hand 1, u turn nut fd + u have tptk...bet it
hand 2 u decide to go with ur by raising the turn, but still fold to $9 more???? crazy fold imo.
hand 3 pretty normal played, clubs not nice but he shows no action so played good that one

[dansiek]

hand 1: I know a lot of hands hit and u r pot controlling but why not just c/c the river? Whatever calls u is probably beating u.
hand 2: This certainly looks like 88,66 so i like a c/c line on the turn.
hand 3: Is there any reason why we are over shoving? Just bet normally.

[given1982]

1 - bet the turn
2 - you can fold to the turn bet or c/c and fold to any river bet
3 - this could be fine depending on postflop tendencies--with no reads a 2/3 pot bet is probably better

Perfectly fine to quit a session prematurely when your mind's not right. That's the best thing most people could do on days like this.

Hand 1: I don't mind the check. I don't want to get raised off my hand here sometimes. But when he bets so weakly, I might check-rais since he could just have a weak ace or something like KQ with K of hearts? River looks fine to me. I feel he pays off with a lot of weak aces there. And you counterfeited AJ, A9.

Hand 2: No reason to chk-raise turn. You're just bluffing with your hand. You fold out everything you're ahead of by doing that. Villain might raise flop w/ QJ,QT type hand for info, value raisng 2pr+, or semibluff raising. A obvious draw got there on turn. Maybe QJ/QT with a heart gives a nother call on turn. C/F or B/F. I like Bet because I can set the price, and I think I can get a thin turn call from Qx with a heart. I like 1/2 pot. C/F river all day unless I improve to 2pr and villain bets very small.

Hand 3: We're deep. Villain could have flopped it. I don't feel he calls a shove on turn with worse. I think you can even pot control being deep. I'm afraid of 55 specifically. 26/8 can be in there with something like KJ suited or suited Ace to a 3bet as well. I would still bet turn normally, like 2/3 or 3/4. Check behind river or fold to a river bet unless it's like a 1/4 blocker. I don't think we can get 3 streets of value because we 3bet. Everything we 3bet with got there on that board. Villain would be complete idiot to call us with worse than aces on the river. I don't like always assuming villains are complete idiots. It opens us up a lot to getting slowplayed.
