IMO Hand 3 is a terrible laydown and the rest of them are OK.

hand 1 is good

hand 2 looks like he missed id probably reraise the flop or turn. but your line wasnt bad either.

hand 3 i dont like going for the check raise on this flop. i think the laydown is good though.

hand 4 looks like he has a set

He just called pre-flop I think a checkraise is standard. Without a read there is no way I could lay this down since the hand is so underrepresented.

Push his 3 bet on the flop on hand 3. All the rest are easy laydowns imo, nh's.

Thanks for the feedback, very useful. I'm curious why everyone thinks we're ahead in hand 3 though.

What do you put him on that 3-bets the flop here? I thought AA / KK (unlikely) /88 were the only hands that made sense. I thought AK, KQ, QQ would just call my raise and see what I did on the turn as I was OOP

I was stacking off too much with TPTK awhile ago so maybe I'm overcompensating now

He's a half-buy and half-buys play terribly for the most part. He could have any number of different hands that you're beating, and he might also be chopping with you (which I think is extremely likely). You should basically never fold AK to a half-buyin in a raised pot when you hit top pair.
