Bet sizing - self analysis!
Yeah, its me again! I try and go over my hand history when I have a bit of time during the day. Not every hand but ones I recall I may have done summit wrong (or sometimes even right!) I only have time to play one 3/4 tounreys a week so it's relatively easy.
Do the regs do this? I realise some play a LOTTTT of hands so possibly not? IS this time well spent? At a guess I spend maybe 30/40 minutes.
Anyway, played a hand last night and made a mental note to check it..
My self analysis on the hand below is.
1. I SHOULD have bet 1200 pre.
2. Bet bigger on the flop?
3. c/r bigger on turn?
4. not sure tho on river -poss check
I realise the outcome may NOT have changed but curious to know your thought?
Also, am I posting TOO many hands? Am I OVER analysing?
TIA

Reads on villains would help
Why are you betting flop?
Why are you c/r turn?
The answers to these question affect your bet sizing a little, but in general dont openlimp, flop bet can be smaller, should rarely be bigger, if you are c/r turn it should be bigger
On the turn what are you trying to achieve by c/raising?
I wasn't sure about my analysis hence the Q marks after. I realise the openlimp was BADD. What message does a smaller bet on flop say? Should I have checked it?
However i would fold this hand pre in your posistion i tend not to play A 678 or 9 deep in MTTS unless shoving or stealing
Flop I prob check, if I bet it depends what I'm doing if raised but I would go about 2/3 pot here. If villains are stations you can bet bigger, up to pot
Turn, I assume you are c/r for value (which I think is a bad idea), I would make it at least 3K, maybe a little more
River if you did c/r for value, I dont see much to do other than shove
Thanks for comments peeps. Will have a read ltr. Gonna have a go at DS again! Mite be back soon! lol
