    this opponent had been rather loose so A high or an 8 was definetley in range. However i cant really beat much i dont think after the river.

    Id really looked for all in on flop or turn tbh.

    wow your raising utg with that rubbish so your hand is disguised

    I think you played it fine tbh and that its a c/c on river. He doesnt have to have the K, he could have a busted flush draw if he is fishy enough to call the turn on a paired board...

    you gotta call that 1.90 im afraid

    seems a bit like a value bet, but i dont think you can fold.

    Wouldnt he have raised the flop with a King? Mayb he's been slow playing 88? Seems unlikely but i dont think your ahead. So after all that i think i would fold. Also depends on any reads/info you have on villian.

    Dont like the raise utg with 78 this move will make you lose chips in the long run, played rest fine. Check/Call river cant really do much more, king gotta be within their range although you could be losing think you should never fold due to small bet even if for value

    As scotty has put fold pre, and spot on rest of it

    fold pre

    check/call river.  he can be betting busted FDs.  from his betsizing it does seem like a VB but I don't think we can fold for that.

    you cant play 78o profitably utg with 70bb stacks. ESPECIALLY WHEN NEXT TO ACT HAS BEEN VERY LOOSE.
    (i noticed in A51 you also open JThh UTG with 25bb stack STOP DOING THIS.) the smaller the effective stacks the lower the implied odds so drawing hands under JTs are bad. you want to flop strong top pairs and get the monies in.

    you hit one of the very very few flops you are happy with vs a loose player on a draw heavy board. BET BIGGER

    yet again on the turn BET BIGGER.

    you have 66bbs to start off the hand with and on the turn you have a fullhouse, yet you still manage to fail to setup a shove on the river for less than pot.

    It would be tantamount to morose stupidity to disagree with these views imo. Esp. the bits where he says BET BIGGER because caps do not give it the full justice.
