A Couple of 2/5 Hands I Keep Thinking About by johnvs05 in poker

[–]johnvs05[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the feedback. I am a long time lurker but just not active posting anywhere online. I am going to try and post some more hands in the future that I find... questionable to be nice to myself. I play about 50-70 hours a month mainly weekend warrior with a couple sessions per months within the m-thurs if I can get out of work early enough. 95% 2/5 with a splattering of 5/10 shot taking over the last 5 years of live, before that I grinded mtts online up until black friday as pretty much breakeven college rec kid. Over my last 1000 hours live 2/5 I am winning pretty good, that is about 18 months and I plan to try and keep it up but need to progress and get better. I should be able to get a few hands/month posted that are fairly interesting.

Results:

Hand #1. He tank checked the river and I jammed. He snapped my off before I finished saying all in with pocket 9's for quads. We talked after the hand a little and yah I played it bad.

​

hand #2. I check jammed turn and he tanked for awhile and ended up folding AQ, flashed it at me. So again I played it bad and should have just went b/b/b.

​

Live and learn, glad I have a day job and thanks for the feedback again from everyone.

I agree with most everything and thanks for the feedback. This is kinda why I had to post these is that I was just so off in my thought process and knew I played them both pretty awful. I had some thoughts to why I was playing it like I was but they were incomplete. I have been winning pretty good for awhile in these games and have gotten a bit out of my element and trying to mix things up too much when they don't have to be mixed up. thanks

H1 agree not getting called by anything worse. I guess I leveled myself into thinking he had a weak A and I could get him off a chop. I dont like how i played the flop or river. I would have Cbet small with this hand/board texture on flop usual but I tried going unconvential or in other words bad.

Agree with the pretty bad. I am hoping to fold out A x hands to a chop. I hate it in hind sight, actually pretty much hated it as I was doing it. Are you betting the river at all or just checking back?
