super nit
zerglife, Sep 13 2009
So, my poker escapade has been going fairly decent, stagnating here and there but on the bright side the flame is still burning strong and I have also convinced a close friend to become obsessed with poker which is good since having someone else to talk about it with irl is pretty sick. Anyway as the title suggest I've been playing like a nit and am currently at the .01/.02 stakes. I started out with $25 and was able to turn it into $70 however due to lack of cash for bills (work is slow) I needed to take it out so I am back down to $25 and steadily working on building it again. Anyway here are a few hands that I'd like liquid poker to assess, I didn't have too many hands on the villian. Any advice is appreciated! I have to go to work soon but I'm looking forward to the responses.
Hand 1: Should I have value bet more at the end, I had no idea he had QQ so I wasn't sure I'd get a call by shoving.

Hand 2: I definitely should have bet the river, I shouldn't have been afraid of sets or draws and his early aggression and call on the turn should have told me he had an overpair, what would be a good amount to fire on the river?

Once again any advice or tips are greatly appreciated, thanks! ^_^
Greetings!

Hello fellow aquatic vertebrates,
I come from the depths of space otherwise known as Starcraft. I used to play Starcraft for fun with friends and for the past 5-6 years I have been playing it somewhat competitively on and off. I am attempting to make a transition into the fields of poker and plan on making full use out of this great resource known as liquidpoker (and hopefully some of its inhabitants.) The beginner articles have thus far served as a great aid, and as I continue my journey through the tough roads of the micro limits I will be creating more blog entries asking for advice on hands that I will inevitably make sub-par decisions on. I am currently using the program known as Hold 'em Manager to keep track of my progress however I am too inept to make full use out of it yet as I have not even scratched the surface of this great game. I plan on doing my best to make pot odds, hand odds, and concepts such as position in no limit hold em second nature. I am currently staked at .01/.02 and am slowly making my climb up the treacherous path. I hope that some of you more experienced players will offer a helping hand in my future blog posts! Until we meet again I bid all of you well.
