1. I raise or fold preflop here, for me it's only a calling situation with another caller involved. After the flop, I can't say I do anything different, tho it's a really non-standard situation. I'm trying to stop making thin turn and river bluffs myself, this is one I might kick myself for.

2. I guess the only way you can bet less is if you read UTG+1 well enough to get some kind of value out of him post-flop. I like it as played.

3. Again, I guess I'm just more agro preflop nowadays... But I love it after the flop.

4. We have kicker trouble if the guy checks an ace on the flop... There's no draws out there so that could be the case. I c/c the river, but as played I think we fold to a raise.

5. I keep raising preflop :P. I like the flop, but I try to keep it small on the turn. If he has a straight here, we get paid off if the board pairs. As played, I think we have to fold to the raise on the turn. We're getting 2:1, we need better than 3.5:1
Check out my self-deprecation here!
