Looking for comments on all streets!

Hand 1 - No idea what I limped pf, without the ace suited should I just ditch it? BTN Cbets almost EVERY single time. I have been playing c/f if miss, not sure if he notices?

Hand 1 - I fold pre. Your hand is pretty weak and OOP BLOWS.

Look at this one from a 6 hands standpoint, You have a Ksxs which is a meh hand, AKo, and 89s. Really only one decent one 89s. Would you play any of the rest of them from EP in HE?

Hand 2 - I would open min-raise because it seems like a good idea and I hate open limping. Really it's a weak hand because all you have is a set draw and a sucker straight possibility. Tossing this is not out of the question.

As played 3bet that shit pre. You should be able to get over 1/2 your stack in which is fine with AAxx (ideally it would have something else going for it, but oh well).

Hand 3 - Yup, nh

Hand 4 - We talked about this on IM. My thoughts.

Fold, sure, it's a min-raise, but it's a min-raise into an almost full pot bet on the river. This isn't rag flush, it's not a straight, it's a value bet. I push, maybe raise 2.5x if I think you're tricky. He thinks you'll call this the most thus it's the best option.

Lead river for $3, call a min-raise, fold to a PSB.

1 can't lose much by folding UTG in hand 1.

2 raise is OK. reraise is mandatory. flop is fine.

4 OOP in this particular case I think I like to check the river and call anything less than full pot. I'm all for betting, but here I think an inferior flush will bet for value if you check. it looks like you have nut straight. I don't think my opponent has a straight. So I don't bet for value because I think villain bets a flush if I check, but will raise a full house if I bet. So I check and hope to catch his value betting flush or a stone cold bluff and keep it reasonably cheap to see his full house if he made it

wait, are you saying to 4bet Aces in hand 2 Salsa?

They seem like the worst aces I've ever seen for PLO

they are close to the worst aces ever, but i don't think you can ever go wrong from 4 betting pre flop. I wouldn't 3 bet it, but if you pot it then you're first to act and have about a close to full size pot left so you just put it in. works fine IMO

hand 1 yeah check raising is OK. Leading is always good too, but check raise is fine. and no we're not folding
