I'd probably raise a little more preflop. The rest is standard.

When I posted the hand on 2p2, the consensus was pretty much to raise more preflop and raise the flop to like $2-$2.50. Everything else they thought was standard.

Rob (or anyone for that matter), do you usually make it 4xbb+1bb/limp at 25NL (as well as at all stakes)? I can see it at the micro-stakes, but wasn't sure if it should apply to all stakes. Of course it shouldn't be a rule written in concrete (depends on your style, table, stacks, etc.), but I wasn't sure if I should make it 4xbb+1bb/limp instead of 3xbb+1bb/limp.

Yeah I usually make it between pot and 4BB+1BB/limp. So with one limper at 25NL I'd make it somewhere between $1.10 and $1.25. Not really in blind vs blind situations though. Here I would probably just raise to $1.

I can see raising this flop too. You may fold out Kings with bad kickers and charge flush draws.

Yeah I usually raise this flop, not sure why I didn't that time. Looks like some kind of weak pair or draw trying to take the pot down cheaply. I think I have to raise here in order to find out where I am earlier and so that I can take down the pot while I still know where I am/still am ahead.

my inclination is to raise the flop because those crappy bets are usually going to be a random J, or some draw. i'd then re-evaluate the turn but often fire a second barrel.

Im really going for that he had A5. If he had a king he would have bet $1-2. pretty good/standard stuff over all. I would have raised 1.25 PF

I really doubt that he takes this line with A5, and raising 5x preflop is just spewy. I really doubt he bets more than pot ever on that flop, so no offense but I disagree with everything you had to say lol.

You don't think I'm ahead here more than 30% of the time? Folding this river seems really nitty imo, I doubt he's got me bet even like 50% of the time...

QT hit a straight, any FD hit a flush, KX and AX have you beat, as well as J9. You are way behind his range. There is no way he ends up in this spot after betting flop, bet/calling turn, and betting river with worse than 2nd pair here. I think folding the river is pretty easy here.

I agree with this.

Put your opponent on a range, not a specific hand. There is no way you can say that he can't have a flush here.

ya, just to reiterate, i just dont think hes ever bluffing in this spot and i dont think you beat any of his vbets..... so no not even 33 percent of the time. Lets put it this way, give me a single hand that he vbets on the riv given your turn raise on this scary board, that you beat.
