What can i do differently?

RyanC7

Always have it?... River seems fold but im a donk. I realise my bet sizing is woeful, been playing terribly. DOUBT and lack of confidence are more apparent than ever. What edge do I have - I can no longer answer this question, could be time to hang the boots up

HU, is this sick or am I just saying happy birthday? Losing all confidence with poker just cant seem to win a hand behind or ahead.

Players recreational, not good, tight pre and loose post, I thought he could call with Kxs that get there, any queen. At the end of the day im only losing to 2 hands and if im not taking value here heads up then what is the point in playing? At least thats my initial thought, but is he ever ever ever re raising river AND calling with worse than J10?

Just looks like 3 stinkers to me, you're never getting away from any of them imo

Hes never min raising the turn, so he can get stacks in on river with anything that is behind to set 9s though ?

craigcu12

hand 1 why else would the villian call the flop then raise on the turn when the card just a blank i can't see him reraising with just an over pair unless it had a diamond and even then why would he want to shove on the river. as for yourself the flop and turn was ok but it was best to  C/F on the river or do a small value bet/ fold
hand 2 just bad luck i can't see any way out TBH
hand 3 a raise preflop of 3xbb might have helped shorten the hand ranges, then he also he might have went for a reraise , the chances are he then has premium pairs or AKs

Good question. At the time I felt I was good, but reviewing the hand it appears I'm rarely ahead

Hand 1 : Hmmm very tough, but what is he min raising with that you beat? straight beats you, 1010 wins only hand is 77 or 22 mabye 109.

I think it would be a good lay down otherwise I prob just shove turn. 

Hand 2 : Cooler. Although mabye 3 bet pre with J10 in position to a min raise? However i do not play heads up.

Hand 3 : Anther stinger, although I prob make it 40p pre. build a pot for when you hit.

If you dont enjoy poker, give it up, its that simple. Am I right in saying you won a main event recently? mabye im mistken
