Hand 1: I don't get the weak flop bet. Fire out for value if you're going to felt this, lots of worse hands give you action. On the turn, meh. All the money went in on the wrong street. Given the action I might check that turn.

Hand 2: Standard short-buy abuse.

Hand 3: Not many online games are good enough for me to want to limp there. 40bb deep, I felt this flop without a second thought.

Yeah, I regret the weak flop bet. I was trying to induce a raise but I guess I'm not getting raised too often on that board. Nonetheless, even if I pot the flop it seems like the hand would have followed the same course. Can I really check that turn with three spades on the board? Any way I can fold to the turn min-checkraise?

Would this have been a good spot for a PF raise to mix things up?

Rocky--I try to post w/out looking at what others have said, so apologies if I'm just repeating Fnord w/ my comments...

1) Bet more on the flop. $3.50 into an $8 pot is not good. On top of the obvious sealing off draws angle, it's a dead giveaway that your hand is strong, assuming you normally bet more like 2/3 to 3/4 pot with TP or on your cbets. Turn looks like he made his flush, although he is supremely laggy, so he could be using the third spade as a scare card. Dunno, but I play it the same way, too.

2) I wouldn't come in for a raise with ATo in MP. Maybe I raise it on the button to steal blinds, but that's about it. As played, I usually bet the exact amount of the shortie's stack here just for maximum bully effect, but otherwise, yeah good.

3) I'm never limping suited connectors from UTG. I play this hand in position with multiple limpers behind me. As played, I think this is good.

Miffed22001 is on a distinguished road
 in hand 1 would opp have been bad enough to bet behind you if you'd checked to him?
This is one of my favourite spots to get a lot of money in on the flop if i think opp will try to buy the low flop.
