Hand #1: Do not min-raise w/ that hand in that position, really really bad, building a pot OOP w/ a mediocre hand.

Hand #2: I like this hand a lot better preflop. Next, you've gotta love this flop and you played it OK, however, he reraises you his entire stack. I've gotta think your usually pretty far behind here and there wasn't all that much money in the pot, so I think I would usually fold to the push. However, there are certainly situations where I would call, the A helps against players that push w/ top pair lower kicker.

Hand #3: The reraise is good from the SB, especially if there is any chance that this guy is stealing from there. Next, you played the flop OK, although I might have just led out rather than built the pot so quickly. I think the fold was probably the right move.

1. Bet flop. Check river. Fold to raise.
2. Fold to push.
3. Fine.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

Hand 1: Meh, if I checked the flop I would check the turn too. Any other Broadway holding has you in trouble. Make your hand a bluff catcher and go nuts if you improve.

Hand 2: Standard.

Hand 3: Why are you re-raising pre-flop? Do you think he's raising light? Post-flop is just donk-tastic spew. Against bad players, don't expect to get a fold from a single act of aggression. They will call just to see if you follow through.

Your being a bit results oriented, you obviously looked at the results before posting, which I don't think we did. Also, note that I said that the A gives you some value to call against opponents that will push w/ top pair crappy kicker. However, opponents betting on a draw heavy board indicates he may be stronger than that. Even if you are 70% sure he is pushing w/ top pair crappy kicker or worse, you are losing value by calling w/ whats left behind. You would have to be close to 100% sure, which you are only that sure because you saw the results.

AK is a very real possiblity here, which kills 3 of your outs.

Anyways, I call against dontastikness here, but fold to tights or unknowns.
