Value Bet Sizing (2 Hands)

edited April 2012 in The Poker Clinic
Do you think I... A) played these hands fine up to the river? and ... B) Got the right sizing on the river for my value bet?

I know alot of people call off lightly at this level and I think there's alot of hands in their range that would call here.

    Hand 1, there are a few hands I'd advocate overlimping with here, but KQo is deffo a raising hand, it flops well and crushes hands that people limp/call with. 

    River size is ok, probably a bit big but never gonna criticise anyone for betting too big @ nl4. 

    ---------------------


    Hand 2, I'd just bet the turn slightly bigger, after he's called the flop. Rest is good.

    Hand 1) Why are we limping?

    Hand 2) bet pot @ turn, he is flushing & wont fold @ this level, ship river when club falls.

    Hand 1) Yeah very valid points about the limping. Normally at this level, I'll obviously raise my really strong hands big and there are some smaller hands where I kinda have the mindset it can flop big or I can get rid, but KQ and especially while I have the button should not have been a limp here.

    You can post it in my diary or in here or whatever

    Cheers
