some comments on a week or so worth of hands...

TT - Your analysis is pretty good. pre-flop call is good, but if you're calling for set value then you don't want to get too attached post-flop - your call is saying "if i hit my set then you're gonna stack off cos your range is so strong", or maybe "TT is too good to fold here, but 3betting will polarise your range something awful". Which are you saying exactly? ok, flop c-r is meh vs this ubernit. He has a high c-b cos he always has a hand, nits do. Turn lead is worse.

AQo - preflop is fine, so is calling. Your cbet size is all good. Once he calls the cbet you can pretty much give up as "then folds on the flop..." This hand comes down to winning pots vs winning $$. Your turn bluff will work a lot (sizing tell etc) but i don't think it works enough if he really is sick of you.

i was thinking about getting a job, figured during the interview that i wasn't that keen - dunno if it showed. Keep on sifting...

AQs, Pre-flop is standard. Ranges look about right. Flop cbet is good, and i like the sizing. His calling range has a bunch of draws in it, as well as weak aces. Turn and i think you should bet bigger vs his drawing range, especially the Ksxs hands. I consider overbet shoving here for value even. River i like a check-soulread cos you can't bet-fold this shallow.

AKo. Bet somewhere, anywhere. Maybe c-c flop is ok given your read? but... Anyway, c-shove river as played cos he's calling any ace ("i got two pair!")

JdQd flop play is interesting. Raise to buy a turn is an option, calling is fine, and so is folding turn call is fine cos of back-door-ness. River plays itself.

9sTs what's villain's fold to 3b? open is kinda wide from ep, but fine i guess (FR nit here), 4b is meh, cbet is silly. Carroters spoke sense.

AdQh pre-flop good. Flop is too big. Turn is a gross spot. I probably check-decide.
don't raise with the straight flush bro, nobody ever gonna call that shit
allin, reload, repeat
