Hand 1 villian was taking this line often. he had shown top pair as well as air and draws. easy fold or is this a gamble i take?
Hand 2 villian was multitabling and playing tagg style but on the looser side
Hand 3 i was gonna fold if he came over the top PF. but after he flats my raise . whats a good flop line, is check/fold standard or should i bet/fold.
Hand 4. No reads i had just sat down. line check? i really dont see him showing up with much here that we beat ever
Hand 5 Villian was playing pretty loose and aggressive but he wasn't a station. i had only been at the table for about 80 hands or so..i called on the flop IP to see if hed fire a second barrel on the turn he did fire again but it was small so i decided to turn my hand into a bluff and try and push him off his hand. was this incorrect? and on the river since were bluffing absolutely making a decent bet here right?

I AM A FISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hand 1: Have more money. And I snapcall--------EDIT: NVM. there are two players left to act. but 2 way pot, I snapcall. he's doing this w/ alot of shit if he's doing it w/ JJ+ imo.
Hand 2: I probably fold, too deep to worry about it.
Hand 3: JJ? Christ.... fold or raise like you have a couple testicals. I NEVER show up to a flop w/ those preflop conditions, but I guess fold... IDK.
Hand 4: fine imo.
Hand 5: Have more money. And meh... tough place maybe in turn... if vllains really folding enough here I might bluff it, but I don't think you have any outs against his calling range there.
I don't bet river.

why not just wait until you have top pair when you call him in hand 1? you may or may not be ahead, and you haven't given us what % draws and what % made hands he's doing it with
hand 2 I fold if he's a tag
hand 3 I fold again
hand 4 :/ chop at best, imo since the board is not at all drawy
hand 5 bet the river as played, but bet it small-ish so it makes it look like a value bet + you don't risk as much

Hand 1: Easy Fold He has a Jack + Over or better here way too much. And you're drawing to the bad end of the straight getting horrible odds.

Hand 2: Easy fold, you have nothing invested, what do you beat that he shoves. Can you come up with enough hands you beat to offset the times he has you smoked? Enough to justify calling 120bb to protect 16bb?

Hand 3: Meh. This is an either way hand imho, if you min 4bet to 2.40 it looks really really strong, you get the initiative, you stay under the commitment threshold so you can fold if he shoves. All good things. Also, you've got a nice setup for a 3/4 pot, turn shove where your opponent is likely committed bad and calling, or folding incorrectly after calling the flop on favorable boards for you. Either scenario is relatively good for you. The alternate approach would be to 3.x to $4 or $4.50 basically saying "I'm willing to play for stacks, are you?", at which point you're definitely committing preflop. You're shoving any flop, and calling if he re-shoves preflop. This maximizes your equity if you think he stacks off badly, and gives you a lot more fold equity, in what is essentially a bad reverse implied odds situation for you. It's like, you want him to call you light pre, but at the same time he's stacking you a lot more than you're stacking him. A very interesting hand in my opinion. As played that's a great board to check fold or shove. I think I lean towards check folding. Shoving reps QQ, KK, AA, and AK, which compromises the majority of your range in this spot. The more I think about it maybe this is ISF theory, where your range is so strong if he's a thinking player at all your hand looks like the nuts. and you're a favorite against all the decent draws, shoving isn't that bad.

Hand 4: Bet/fold turn, he's got a pocket pair a bunch and will only raise you with better, and will likely call with worse. If he checks on the river I'd value bet it, lots of 77,88,99,TT hands wont be able to fold. As played, call river, again I think his range consists largely of middle pocket pairs he's trying to play pot control with. If you bet turn and he calls, I'd fold if he led the river and valuebet if he didn't.

Hand 5. I'd probably give up once he called my turn raise, but as played you're committed, and might have some fold equity unless he gets stubborn with a bad two pair. He's probably never folding a queen or a flush. I don't mind the float on the flop. Turn raise isn't that bad you're repping lots of sets and flushes, it's a good spot in the sense that he'll fold a lot when you catch him two barrelling, and definitely fold some hands that are better than yours, and he might even call with worse if he has naked Ac. I'm trying to figure out a solid range of hands he can call the turn raise with that he'll fold on the river, and I can't come up with any. In your favor, that queen is a pretty retarded card to bluff, so your bet looks ridiculously strong, but again I'm not sure he folds anything he calls the turn with. Your hand has showdown value against missed nut flush draws with no pair, but I don't think that's enough to check call. I check/fold and hope to showdown AK high to win.

That doesn't make any sense. You say "IT LOOKS really strong" Therefore you're turning it into a bluff. WRONGO. And 4b here is equal to commitment because this ISN"T a bluff, it's a value raise or it's a fold. imo.

1) You have a draw. Do you have pot odds to call? No. Fold.
2) Fold.
3) Fold. You are way behind his range.
4) Fine.
5) Don't bet the river. What is he folding on the river that he calls with on the turn? Missed draws and guess what...you beat missed draws so just check it.

people saying to call in hand 1 need to stop giving advice imo. at least preface your advice with "i am a fish" like wellrounded did.

hand 3 I fold preflop because we should only be getting into the pot with AA/KK
in fact I instamuck QQ since we're behind the 3-bettors likely range

my bad on hand number one i calculated the odds incorrectly fold your hand for some reason I thought we had more equity but we dont. I guess I didn't calculate amount of times he hits redraws. We'd need like 42% equity for profitable call there. If he's on AA or KK we only have 38% my bad guys.
