HAND #1

I have villain on nitty 13.5/7.7/1.3 after 155 hands.
I haven't been in any 3-bet pots with him, nor have I seen him play any.

I didn't have many stats on villain, but on the 63 hands he's 20/20/4.5.
I have 3-bet villain maybe twice from the blinds on which he folded, for the rest my image is TAG.

HAND #4
------------------
No specif reads on villain, his stats after 129 hands were 13.2/7.8/1.3.
I had this hand a few times this session on the blinds vs a BTN or CO. I called a few times and 3-bet some. The 3-bets all got folds, the calls all ended bad.
Without being results oriented, is KQs a clear 3-bet against most opponents in this situation? KQo?

HAND #6
------------------
This was one of the tougher hands of the session for me.
First whether to b/c or b/3-b the flop. Second on the turn I was lost between b/f, c/c or c/f. So overall I'm swimming here postflop.

Over 85 unnoticed hands villain played 47/7/0.5.

 1. Raise turn.

2. Fine.

3. Fine. Slight preference for b/f instead of c/c on the river.

4. Calling pre is fine. Raise flop, as played of course fold turn against nit.

5. Fine. I would probably call him down instead since his stats look bad.

6. Marginal. I would check and call a small raise or fold to large raise.

1. Is a turn raise mostly to get value from worse made hands, because without raising somewhere I'm not getting allin? Or is it mostly to let draws pay? Any advice on betsizing of the raise?

My thoughts were with this heavily underrepping of my hand I can get more value from Jx-KK on the river.
The decision wether to keep weaker hands in for value on later streets, or bet/raise them out to get maximum value out of villains strongest made hands (which are still weaker then hero's hand) is actually an interesting subject.

3. Do you prefer b/f because if villains bets the river closer to pot, we can't call? What's your betsize on a b/f?

4. Assuming we call preflop, how often should we be c/r-ing low/paired/Jxx flops to make it profitable?
Why are we raising flop?
(the interesting topic (see comment hand 1) becomes more and more interesting, maybe I'll start a thread about it in a few days)

Also, if villain was i.e. 20/17, should I standard be 3-betting KQs?
