I'm enjoying my first full-time foray into 6-max. But I'm definitely spewing more than usual. Line checks would be appreciated. I won 2 of these and lost 2, step right up and take your guesses...

Villain is a solid regular, very aggro, 18/15/5 over 650 hands.

Hero ($235)
Button ($76)
SB ($199.10)

first one is bad. you represent absolutely NOTHING. i would fold turn.

second one is ok, except when opponent usually folds to 2nd barrels and didnt here! turn bet is ok though, i would push a rivered J though

third one sucks, if u want to bluff just bet the turn strong. check raising when pot is so big to bluff is usually a bad idea unless u have lots of outs

fourth i probably just shove river myself for value, but once he c/rs its easy call
