KoRnholio will become famous soon enough

How are my lines? Don't have much for reads since I am just stepping into the 100NL areana.

hand 1

Villain had 3bet me preflop once (SB vs his BB), and I check-folded on a AJx board. How are my bet sizes? When he called the turn I figured he had a hand like AcJx or maybe 2 pair and wanted to get a little value. If he pushed I'm not sure what I would have done, probably folded.

Hand 2

Villain was running 18/15/3.33, stealing very often and rarely going to showdown. I did see him make a weird minimum raise with KJ (no hearts) on an 89TA(3 heart) board against a preflop raisor though.

hand 3

Villain running 16/14/4.71. His extra large turn bet seemed weak to me, so I let my time run down and pushed into him.

Hand 4

Villain running 21/7/7.00 and hasn't done too much that's memorable. His minimum 4bet preflop was made instantly. His flop bet was super weak, but I didn't want to chase away hands like 99-JJ / AK that will liekly keep betting. When (if at all) should I let this go? His turn bet made it seem like he was very eager to play for stacks...

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

Hand 1 is good
Hand 2 is standard
Hand 3 meh, why even play the 23s OOP. I just muck this PF but I play pretty passivly SB vs BB. I think you played it fine though
Hand 4 It's though but I think you can fold river.

hand1: looks good
hand2: check that flop, you are usually called here. The reason we check/F is this is a 3bet pot and WTF do you think he has here that might have missed? I guess he could have a small PP, but most of the time he shows up hitting here
hand3: muck from sb.
Hand4: That small 4bet screams AA or KK to me. My plan is to call for set value, and bet an A high flop as he could have KK. I don't see much fancy 4betting at 100nl, mostly vanilla KK/AA

bode is an unknown quantity at this point

hand 1: nice

hand 2: 3-bet bigger to $18 or so, especially since you are in the blinds. Your flop bet screams weakness, so either check or bet bigger. Obv shut down if called.

hand 3: fold pre. its spewtastic as played.

hand 4: gross. idk, i suppose you should fold somewhere, im just not sure where.
