OK just looking through some hand historys and found this hand, river kind of bugging me.

I mind at the time i thought he could have KQ/QJ played this way but the more i think about it the less likley thats possible. Although im not 100% limped pot so Q3 is possible (with the case 3).

So im really not sure with my river desision here. Without results am i winning the min or should i be going busto.

    I'm shoving and doing handstands round the living room.  We can't be leaving money behind at this level.

    For the villain to have a house, he's flopped a set or two pair and slow played it, or he's got Q3 (unlikely). I think you have to call because you're beating AQ, AT, QT and worse trips, but I probably wouldn't be raising here.

    id ship it tbh. if hes a bigger house then so be it.

    theres only a few players who id flat there raise on the river because i know they dont put any more than a couple of blinds in a pot without a huge hand.

    id expect some action in the hand before the river with 2 pair or a set to protect(even if it was min bets) from unknowns so id be pretty confident i had the best of it.

    I'm a nit, saying get all the money in here, against all players except big nits. Most full houses that beat you are very unlikely. kk qq and jj because of the action pre flop. Any full house with a 3 in it, as you have two 3s and one on the board. A lot of players will stack of here with a straight, and it is more likely they have a straight then many full houses in my opinion. Some player with decent queens, and maybe even some with any queen, will stack off here.

    Even though it is a 4 way limped pot.I am pretty happy to get all my chips in, although not delighted. I think we are losing way to much value if we flat call When we raise we have to get all the money in. Because of the amount we have put in the post. I personally like a shove on the end. Make it look like you may be bluffing.

    Blah on that board ship it every time. Way more often you will see a straight, two pair or trip queens shown to you than you will see the bigger house at this level.

    I would bet the turn a LOT bigger, at least 30p to build pot quickly.

    River with £3.32 behind and £1.92 in there have to shove and be happy in doing so.

    For me I can't see why you'd ever be scared in this situation, it just stinks of some random Q going for the cheeky click raise. If he does have a better hand go post in Area 51 that Sky produce too many 'Action' hands lol

    Also just looked back at river, got to be overbetting here as well, at this level forget all the silly 'rules' about not betting more than pot, missing bags of value here when he just flats with an average hand.

    I dont think im scared. Just really tried to kill my LAG nature and the result is this lol.

    Nah this has nout to do with not being LAG, it's just a standard value spot and tbh I'd presume that'd be the case at most levels especially at NL4 where hand values sky rocket, **** TPTK is the nuts most times at this level but now we're worrying when holding a house lol

    Oh and what did he have, Q3 would be funny )

    you couldnt be more close and missing out fwiw.

    I think the biggest issue i have at NL4 is the fact ive been here as long, ive seen myself stacking off to see a hand your scratching your head as to why its theretoo many times and i think that obviously has an effect. As i said its a limped pot and hes the BB so guess i just didnt think of narrowing the range as a result. Im defo a much stronger player now than i was 3 months ago just by thinking properly where as here i just clearly wasnt thinking correctly. I wasnt happy with this hand hense the post and yer i think i got it wrong.

    I`d personally ship it at this level there so much we are beating qx hands,910,a10 for str8s etc if he has kq,qj,q3 so be it imo.

    Against a big nitt or good reg, who can fold a big hand I would flat here, but against most players particularly at lower levels I would ship.

    It's interesting that regs can get hands in fairly light with say jj if their is a certain 3 and 4 betting history between players.Or in 3 bet pots with just top pair top kicker, if their is a lot of re raise bluffing and raising nut flush draws. However in single raised pots or limped pots good regs tend to be more circumspect about getting hands all in. However it does make sense given the stack to pot ratio.

    This is why against a good reg I would probably just flat on the end.

    why are you limping? dont limp to start with then it becomes much easier putting villans on a hand or range of hands. As played i guess just stick it in

    dude i wouldnt limp at any other level. But at NL4 raising just isnt gna be +EV this has been discussed many times. Im basically wanting to see a flop as cheap as poss.

    I am open to discussion on this matter but really dnt see the need to open this jar again.
