Very first hand at table, no notes on oppo.  Easy fold? How bad is my turn bet?

    Unless he has 77 or a T cant see how his hand improves maybe picking up a flush draw, of course AA, AK beats u but u would expect more aggression pre IMO

    Even tho it's NL4 I'd still fold this as it just looks dodgy.

    4x pre .....

    If ur ever in doubt, make the decisions easier for urself.

    I dnt care what the 'top players' say about playing every hand perfectly to make the most, the lower stakes are all about getting the job done, winning!

    If lolufold played nl4 as he plays nl400, he wud lose unless he adapted his game.

    When he calls the flop, u have to be worried, I wud be.

    So betting the turn, gives u a massive headache.

    How to avoid it?

    Check call the turn...for the 40p u invested leading the turn (or a bit more) u can get to a river card......

    Always have in the back of ur mind, the word "control" once u lose control of a hand, its not good. There arent enough good players to outplay u and take the hand away from u at nl4, so keep the pots under control, manage them, and manipulate the hand as u wanna see it.

    Top pair 2nd kicker isnt a monster, but it's probably good, so what if u win 25xbb with it instead of a buy in, 25 easy bb's is better than 100x hard bbs!

    Haha inspirational speech over
