I'm not posting results because it makes me look like a retard (and makes you think the answer is obvious)

Hand 1
I know SSH says not to cap with AK, but I thought my equity was good enough here. Is this wrong?

What do you think are the chances that I have the best hand at the end?

Hand 4
First of all, is it worth calling with A2o here? It's 7-handed but even then it looks supremely weak.
And am I outkicked here often enough to fold the turn?

Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

Hand 1: Big pot, mash bet/raise until river. Yup.
Hand 2: I might let this go. Unraised pot, passive opponent, 2.5 or so bets til shodown, yada yada yada. I probably peel one looking for a crub or Queen on the turn though.
Hand 3: I wouldn't donk this from the BB, and you'll probably end up paying off a cap as well pre-flop. Post-flop I'm mashing bet/raise a lot too.
Hand 4: Stupid easy pre-flop fold, what exactly are you looking for on a flop? Post-flop is standard. I get into spots like this a lot when I raise it up with s00ted weak aces and KK/QQ/JJ thinks he's still good.

Yeah, I forgot that ace-small is probably WEAKER in the blinds due to crap position. If I posted on the button, is that a call?

I 3-bet and raise a lot when I post. It depends on what I think of the game texture, raiser, etc. Not exactly sure how I'd play A-rag in this spot.

Unless it's s00ted or I'm opening from the CO/BN/SB, I don't like it much at at. Actually, quite often I'll open complete the SB with hands like that...

I started ccing some raises with weaker Axs in 3-5 wayish pots, but the result was pretty ugly.
