elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point

Those are some pretty ikky hands you hit.

I've very wary of raises on the Turn and River, especially the river. In hand one I would just check/call after he caps me on the turn as I'm sure I'm up against a boat.

Hand 2, It looks like you'll be splitting this pot with another AK or so. I doubt anyone has a boat, unless its 99. (K9 pretty unlikely).

Hand 3: Such a weird way this thing played out. I wouldn't doubt MP3 was being stupid and slowplaying a set here on the flop, say with 33. Once that river card comes its just fishy to all hell that MP3 FINALLY wakes up. I call his river raise here and hope UTG makes a crying call.

Hand 1: I c/c the river he might have a boat, given his cap he at least has trips... unless you got a read to say otherwise...

Hand 2: I think on the flop leading is ok if you think he'll raise less hands to help you protect yours, when MP2 3 bets well that's not good, and with the button cold calling 3 you call 2 now UTG+1 has odds to cap anything because no one folds for one more... I think you are either way behind on this river or splitting, 3 way capped looks like AK v AK v AA... I don’t know maybe one of them hit a set and boated the river or something like KTs on the flop in spades... I have no clue where MP2 is and UTG+2 looks to be over playing AA... it's a debatable river what to do... some c/c some lead/call with previous action c/c might not be too hateful an idea, I’m not worried about UTG+1 I’m worried about what MP2 is doing here... now I’m wondering WTF they had...

Hand 3: Nasty... however I’m not 3 beating that river... that looks like a flush or a boat... I’d call not 3 bet...

Hand 1: I figured he just had the T, but I can see why leading the river is bad.

Hand 2: I thought UTG+1 had AA, and MP3 had a flush draw he wasn't going to let go of, especially from his very passive turn play. Once UTG+1 raised my river bet I knew he had AK and was insane, but the time MP3 3-bet I was just too confused and I had to hit call.

Hand 3: I figured he was slow playing the flush. Agreed, 3-betting the river was really dumb

Results in white below:
Hand 1:

Villan Shows AA - yeah, I should've buddied him

Hand 2:

UTG+1 shows AK Three of a kind Kings
MP3 shows 99, fullhouse

Hand 3:

Villan Shows QT
