Lost a bet on turn? I have trouble betting into 2 callers with a draw.

one player was a moneybag other a calling station. I guess PT was right.

Have you gone through PT and look for potential leaks? Remember there are 2 key fundamentals in LHE. Pushing your edges repeatedly, and saving bets. Your implied odds in hands are nowhere near what you find in NL and neither is your fold equity. So knowing when you're beat is important and rememebering to consider getting to the SD as cheaply as possible when you think you may be ahead. Applied properly those concepts in themselves should at the least be enough to keep your head above water in low limit HE games.... Also remember the rake can be devestating at low stakes IIRC it can be to the tune of 1BB/100. So those 2 concepts become even a little more magnified.

OK POk's7, i am gonna need some help with that.

I know I have trouble folding and i see in stats that every hand with 8 kicker or less is a losing hand.
I also have more trouble at 1/2 than at 2/4. I suspect this to be related to the bet sizes and call less ??!!

It's gonna take a while to be back at 2/4 because of 6 belguim beers and playing 6 $100NL tables losing $700 Yes folks we will never learn.
I had the house to myself this week and then ofcourse we feel like 18 again

What numbers should I look for or do you wanna see. I have never been much of a PT wizzard

I don t play limit but not betting the turn in hand #1 is definitely missing value.
In hand #2 I would probably put 3 bets in on the river. You lose to sets and KJ only. Sets are very unlikely cause you have top two, so that basically nullifies QQ/TT, He won't be opening 22 utg and his range is heavily weighted towards Ax FDs big pairs and like KJs, since you only lose to one of them I think that justifies 3 bets on the river.

Shamdonk, agree on hand #1

Hand #2 is way incorrect

two days left in Januari. It seems I will be able to stay at $500 in rakerace.
I am currently playing 2/4 4 tables max. It makes the same points as 8 tabling 1/2. In limit you just gotta pay more attention as the decisions are a lot more closer than in NL.
My play is a lot better but still needs lotsa work. I must really stay focussed so I don't fall into old habits and be a calling station.
