Agree with fjuanl completely on hands 2-4

Hand 1, I dont think we should be opening UTG+1 with JTs, obv reads or at least VPIP/PFR on players of interest (blinds, button esp) would be helpful... Anyhow 2.5xBB kind of weird and awkward stack size makes this seem so avoidable

We're basically folding to any raise pf, on a great deal of flops we're faced with cbet/fold which is meh... so what half our stack now on an un-good hand PF and an overly optimistic cbet on flop?

As played I'm checking flop - as fjuanl said, villain's range is lots of Ax and pairs that either have us crushed or won't necessarily believe a cbet anyway

I'm having a hard time grasping his argument for larger flop bet (did you mean this fjuanl? you then went on to say 1/2 pot size) maybe he can elaborate

I had thought that (blanket statement inc) cbets on paired flops don't usually get proper credit, being that flopped trips would want to slowplay to maximize value, and on top of this AAx hits villain range pf call range
