Some strange hands in there for sure, I'm interested in seeing the results

I think in most you are either beat or calling bluffs...

Of course, I'm probably way off and the result was just the opposite of everyone of my analyses

Hand #1: I have a suspicion that you lost this hand to MP who was holding AJ. I like the $2 raise pre-flop. I tend to make a very similar raise with that hand. Although I wouldn't have been happy about getting 3 callers. I like your bets on the flop and turn. After MP called you to the turn it was obvious you weren't going to toake that pot down before a showdown. Good job minimizing the possible damage with the river check/call.

Hand #2: I'm thinking that you lost this hand to a flush chaser. I think he tried to check/call or check-raise you on the turn and when that didn't pan out he bet out on the river. No way I could've laid that hand that you had down either so I would have played it the same.

Hand #3: Again, I'm thinking you lost this one. This is the first hand where I don't like the way you played it. Don't like the push all-in on the turn with an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw out there. I think that I would have backed off on the turn and check/called. When that 9 came on the river I'm not sure I could stick around to see the punishment. Maybe too conservative of a play from me but that's probably how I would've played that hand.

Hand #4 - Once again (and I don't like the pattern I'm finding with my guesses), I think you lost this hand to someone holding KJ. I like your play up to the river. Not sure I could've brought myself to call $10 with 2nd pair.

Hand #5: This hand is f'd up. I have no idea what either of you were thinking here. At first it looks like SB is trying to take a stab at the pot, but then I dunno. Not even gonna venture a guess.

Hand #6: If you didn't win this hand then I would quit playing poker.

So, how bad were my guesses?

Hand 1: I think you got this one in the bag.

Hand 2: I would have re-raised him all-in on the river. I think he was trying to buy it after your turn check. If I was playing, he would have pocket 4s.

Hand 3: Interesting indeed. I think he is chasing a flush.

Hand 4: I think he has the King. Still have to make that call though. I might have re-raised on the flop.

Hand 5: Nice bet on the turn. After he called that, I'd really have to think about folding on the river.

Hand 6: The "bet a little bit less than his stack to entice him to call and re-raise all-in move". Nice! Striaght flush is out there though..

i'll take a shot:

hand 1 - MP hits two pair - Ax off? - MP takes it

hand 2 - not sure - if he has A smaller kicker it's fnord, if he hit his flush then not

hand 3 - not sure again - CO has overs (since he called fnord's PFR) and thinks fnord is bluffing the straight? if CO didn't hit the str - fnord takes it.

hand 4 - SB has overs - JK? maybe JJ? SB takes it

hand 5 - SB pairs the Q. SB takes it.

hand 6 - button has 8 or T - hmmm, i guess fnord wins this one

am i even close?

Hand 1:
For some reason i do not think you go this one. I have a feeling he may have aj or more likly he was some crazy nut who caught a straight.
Hand 2:
Hand two i think you lose to the flush
Hand 3: Not sure on that one, i think he was bluffing and you won
Hand 4: I was a little suprised by your betting here but i think you lost. Out kicked.
Hand 5: Not sure what you were trying to do here, have no clue i want to say you lost but the 2 dollar raise makes me thinking he was trying to buy it , so i think you actually won it.
Hand 6: i think you lost to trip 10s
