Session started a bit shakey today, just want some input if I played any of these wrong.

First hand:
Don't think it is realistic I can get away from this one vs a short stack. The betting is a bit of a joke, but I knew it was all going in anyways.

Second hand:
Villian here is total calling station with a vpip of about 16%. Original raiser is a bit of a loose cannon running 35/28. Both love to move chips. A lot. Putting on either TT-QQ or any Ax. Logic was with the pot at the size it was, if I hit and bet, I can see either one putting me A/I and having to fold. But if I push them A/I, I think I can induce a call with any AJ/AQ/QQ-TT here.

Third hand:
I think I can find a smaller bet and possibly a fold here, but I'm not sure. Probably focusing on results here? Hmm.

hand 1: you should probably fold top 2 pair in a raised pot against somebody with 25 bb's. Terrible.

hand 2: (back in serious mode) Against such a loose cannon that will stack off with worse hands even if you hit, pf seems ok. against someone tighter I'd just fold. Post-flop why would anyone call you with TT-QQ here? I think that's pretty unlikely. I don't really like the push to be honest, I'd probably try to get it in with 2 bets since you are almost always best here. Too bad you ran into a donk set.

hand 3: the guy has less then 9 bucks and you have KK overpair in a reraised pot.

1. standard, considering stack sizes
2. reraise preflop. With the read you give i think i might be tempted to reraise to the point where opp pushes or folds preflop or i might just open push. That is of course unless you know opp raises this big in that position with the nuts preflop.
3. standard again. Just Unlucky.
