KoRnholio will become famous soon enough

All played at the rock garden known as crypto (I realized I have 3 days to clear 550 more MPPs for a $300 bonus...).

Hand 1

Villain who check raised might be on tilt and spewing. Last hand he 3bet-called a cap against a steal with A7, called a bet on an ugly JTx flop, checked the turn, bluffed the river (and got looked up by AK).

2 folds, Hero calls, MP1 calls, 4 folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4.00 SB) 5

SB checks, BB bets, Hero raises, MP1 folds, SB calls, BB calls.

Turn: (5.00 BB) 3

(3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, SB raises, BB folds, Hero...

Hand 2

I don't normally slowplay kings (especially out of position and multiway), but this table was so tight that pretty much any 3bet (especially out of position) automatically pegged you with QQ+ and I didn't want to turn my hand face up.

I went with the donk bets line to get more value from UTG+1's likely TT-QQ, because a check raise would surely shut them down, but lose me more bets when I am against a set or aces.

UTG is a donk who deadposted UTG+1 the previous hand, seems loose based on his play at the only other table he is playing at. So donk betting also keeps this player in the hand, instead of blowing him off whatever junk he has.

I thought about betting the river to value bet against a scared TT/JJ that might not bet, but thought maybe he would bluff or bet with an ace to get me off my "flush draw".

Hand 3

Barf river check-raise. Villain is a bit loose, I am pretty sure he has T8/QT or J9 here. Was my river bet bad? Is a call of his check raise even worse?

Hand 5

Villain is loose and tricky. I read his turn raise as an attempt to prevent a cheap draw to the 4th spade. Gin river card (or is it?). How many bets do you go here (it is uncapped heads up on the river on crypto)? I figure if he doesn't have the nut flush here, he has JT/55 and it's 50/50 if I am ahead or not.

Not sure of his image of me, he could think I have the nut flush and would 6-bet both of those boats.

Hero bets, MP1 raises, Button folds, Hero calls.

River: (5.75 BB) T

(2 players)
Hero bets, MP1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP1 caps, Hero raises then just calls a 6bet?

Final Pot: 13.75 BB.

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
