Hand #1: If you want opp to fold QQ-JJ to the river bet, you need to bet around 3.5-4
Hand #2: For me this depends on players stats/reads.
Hand #3: OK, this way you'll make AQ/AJ pay you. Why not 3bet PF?, then if you hit your A, you can get all-in.
Hand #4: I'm maybe too nit, but I'm check-calling here, you are only beating a pair of Kings.
Hand #5: Bet more flop (i.e. $3), with so many callers, you need to make them pay on that drawy board. As played turn is difficult you're ahead of AA/KK/88/AKss and behind QQ/JJ/AK/99. I think I call here. If you had bet $3 on flop, the pot would be $9.25 and if you bet around $8 on turn you would not have any problem calling any raise from villain as the pot would be too big.

hand 1: i fold to his preflop raise coz he is not even full stack. As played, its good to double barrel early two streets ip.

hand 2: is your villain a donk or standard player? i fold TT in this position most of the time against reasonable players in my games. Also, you still have 3 players to act behind in this hand.

hand 3: You've got to make preflop 3 bet squeeze here. As played, i'd raise right on the flop cos your villain looked like a clueless donk who might stack off with AQ or AJ.

hand 4: i c/c on this river. your check line might induce worse pairs to bluff and save your money when behind.

hand 5: bet much more on this flop. As played, you have to fold to his turn shove because you dont really have good odds( at least 1: 3) to call all-in here given possible 10 outs. his line sounds to me like AK.

Thanks for the input guys

Hand 1 - villian folded to the river bet

Hand 2 - The SB called with JJ and UTG+1 called with AQs and hit his Q on the river

Hand 3 - Nice input on the 3bet. MP1 folded to the turn bet

Hand 4 - Are we worried about villian having the case ace? I was thinking this was more of a value bet hoping a paired K would call based on the second ace lessening the fact that I have an ace. Is my thinking off here?

Is the point here that there are more hands here that would either call this or raise that beat me (3's, 5's, Ace with better kicker) than I am beating (Kx)? If so, I can see that point and it makes sense.

Hand 5 - thx for the input on the flop bet. As soon as I bet I knew it should have been higher (same philosophy appllies in SNG's). I called, villian flipped over Kh Qc and my trips held up.

Thanks again for the input and I would love to hear some thoughts on the first 5 hands.

XTR1000 is an unknown quantity at this point

#1 Your reasoning is bad. Stop the fuck being result oriented, learn to think in ev´s. Dont win pots, win money. As played you´re repping a very thin range, {22-55, air}, weightened towards 55 and ppl will look u up light with such a tiny and polarized range.

#2 Thin, I play same with read.

#3 Has there ever been a reason to flat AKo pre? FFS 3bet preflop and if its only to balance QQ+

#4 fine, fold to a raise

#5 yea, bet closer to pot on flop. Betting like 3 on flop would make the turn easier to call, but as played I wouldn´t fold either cuz Im a station
