2nd Hand: I know he overvalues suited cards from my notes; therefore, his limping range has way more hands that hit flush and straight draws on this board than hands that make top pair. I checked the flop because he is going to call with any draw and will also float me with random stuff some of the time (KQ, KJ with one spade) and I would prefer to keep this pot small given my position. I bet the turn because I improved my hand and it works as a delayed cbet since hes still going to fold the same hands that he would have folded on the flop. The K on the river is really what worried me because so many of his hands hit either some sort of pair, and I did not think he was capable of laying down any pair on the river that he did not already fold on the turn. Against a thinking player, I like shoving the river a lot more and also would consider check-raising the flop; however, against these random fish, I feel it's best to just play solid, medium-pot poker. I have always felt the biggest leak against these weak opponents is fancy play syndrome. It is something I still struggle with (which is why I found this hand so interesting) and one of the things I am looking to work on by playing these freerolls.
