hand1 I fold -- way too many hands that you now lose to with the turn a jack, shorty seems a little too willing to get his money in, I think you're beat. I'd only call if shorty was shorter and you had better odds, but he's pushing almost a pot sized bet here...

Hand2 I fold. The flop check-raise and continued turn aggression suggests at least top pair, You're probably beat, lay down the tens.

Hand3 you've gotta call. Pot has gotten too big, even though there's a good chance you're beat. Villain's been nothing but aggressive at every chance he's had -- his line looks like AK/QQ+ from a more passive type, pray it's AK or he's donking around with AJ/99/JJ/KQ or some crap.

Hand3 is exactly why I hate calling 3bets (even min 3-bets) with hands like AQ/AK. When you hit your queen/king, you've got no idea where you stand and then have to (often rightly so) worry about a big pocket pair. Against a tighter villain I fold preflop to his 3-bet.

Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

Hand 1: Raising this flop sucks. You can't get all the money in, there is enough money behind you're probably not happy if it all gets in and considering an opponent's range of lots of small/mid pairs and suited connected stuff bottom 2 isn't a big hit. Yet, with no read I wouldn't give this up (with a read I might just fold.) Call to see a turn. You still have position and can make a better decision when you see a turn card and turn action.

Hand 2: Why is this a call-down against an unknown? That turn card sucked for you, dump it.

Hand 3: The money isn't deep, GAMB00L.
