    Fold pre
    Now you've bet, you have to go with it
    Third of stack invested and up and down. Bet/fold is not good here in my opinion

    Take free card on flop as well is an option

    In the first hand we shouldn't be bet-folding one of our best flops. Got to call once we're getting those pot odds with eight nut-making outs.

    If we're not going to get it in, we should be checking back the flop... Although I really wouldn't like that. We've raised with 9T not just to hit a 9TX flop. We want to c-bet as a semi-bluff here and try to take it down. If someone wants to come along with us we have the equity of our draw to fall back on.

    I might bet a little bit smaller on the flop, though. Half-pot is fine but you don't need to be beholden to that as your lower limit. 250 on such a dry board is fine.


    The JJ hand is a bit tight. Probably need really good reads that villain only ever has better than us when he 3-bets. He's made a big overshove, so I wouldn't be expecting too many overpairs. Got to be said that I don't play bounty hunters, so if you think this guy is expecting to be called light and therefore shoves premiums, that's a decent reason to fold.

    It's basically a decision about his range. I don't know it. In a vacuum I doubt villain just overshoves better so I call.

    still sweating the main - currently 26/31
    have had horrendous system problems with tables freezing etc - worst ever - so haven't played as many as hoped
    did play the fear frenzy and cashed - only for peanuts but still nice to cash 3/3 frenzies
