First Session

Hello everyone,

first of all, I want to thank “greco” for contacting me so spontaneously and do a long and very interesting Sweat Session. We talked a lot about cbetting and 2barreling and came to the conclusion that that might be a reason for my constantly falling red line. Furthermore about general stuff like openraising-range, 3betting range vs different opponents etc.. Pretty basic topics but nevertheless very interesting.

During the sweat Session we sadly didnt hit well but still had BE NSDWs. Afterwards I played a short session alone and sadly couldnt really implement the hints, at least thats what I think. But I think/hope we talk about the spots I wasnt sure what to do.

Anyway, heres the day-Graph :)

Theres one Hand I’m not very proud of, I dont like (rather hate it) the way I played it but neither know what would be a good line:
V: 27/23 on 30 Hands, due to the small sample, I didnt use any further stats in this Hand.

Hero (BTN): $25.70
SB: $134.78
BB: $25.70
UTG: $35.51
MP: $26.70

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is BTN with K T
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.75, SB calls $0.65, 1 fold

Flop: ($1.75) K 9 7 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $1.20, SB calls $1.20


Just my standard cbet on a pretty dry board, see him calling with quite a lot worse hands like PP, some SDs possible etc.

Turn: ($4.15) 8 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $2.90, SB raises to $8.75, Hero calls $5.85


Pretty bad Turn imo, some SDs may have hit, maybe he now has a SD. As I didnt know how he plays Draws/made Hands, I guess I should have just checked behind and reevaluate on the river. When he c/r me, I guess he at least has a pair + draw, or really made the Straight. Dont see no K in his Range he wouldnt 3b preflop but raise now. So I did hope that when I call here, he might check on a blank River.

River: ($21.65) 9 (2 players)
SB bets $15.00, Hero folds


Well, even a totally strange played 9 beats me, I mainly have a bluffcatcher, therefore, easy fold. Still I think my main mistake was the Turn.

Final Pot: $21.65
SB wins $20.57
(Rake: $1.08)

I like this 2nd Hand, any comments? When the Hand was played, he seemed like a standard “solid” player.
