A lot of these decision would be made a lot less difficult if you didn't slowplay. Yikes.

Hand 1 definitely check the turn

2: this is so bad. bet the flop and the turn. my god.

3: on turn, either bet more or check

4: having a read could make this a call...with no read it is a fold

5: your hand is very underrepresented, definitely call

hand 4 - raise more pre-flop
hand 5 - OMG, re-raise to $2.50. Raise flop to $5-$7, raise turn to $9-$12

Hand 1: Fold.
Hand 2: Worst I've seen AA played in a long time.
Hand 3: I'd prolly muck it. Call flop raise turn could very easily be a set/68.
Hand 4: Raise more preflop, get reads. If someone makes retarded moves like this you should've known about it 2 orbits ago.
Hand 5: Press the fucking raise button!

Raise your right hand.
Repeat after me:
"I will never slowplay aces."
"I will never slowplay aces."
"I will never slowplay aces."
Don't stop until you've said it 100 times.

Hand #1 is a fold on turn. I don't mind the bet, but I can see checking too.

I can't say anything about hand #2 that hasn't been already said.

Hand 3, check or bet $10-$12, I like bet better.

Hand 4 I likely fold. If I had the FD I might call.

Hand 5 Reraise to $2.25 PF. It likely gets checked to you on flop and you can bet flop from there. If you run into KK or AA so be it.

Thanks for all the replies. Here are the results, in order

I was the villain in all hands. I had the goods and got paid. I just wanted to know whether I made good plays or just got paid by donks. I guess the latter is more applicable, although I had to be aggressive and make the opponents make crying calls.

On a separate note, hand 2 was definitely the worst AA play I've ever seen. I am just lucky enough to be on the other end.
