Hey everyone, here are some bigger hands that I wanted opinions on. Not all of these I lost or won, etc. They are just the more interesting spots I got into.

Villain had been stealing any orbit where it was limped to him. He hesitated for quite some time after my check-raise, which made me feel like a follow up bet on the turn would be effective. If I had to do it again, I might check-raise to a slightly larger size, and bet a little larger on the turn.

With the UTG limp, I was thinking that the villain was on a pocket pair, big unpaired cards like KQ, KJ, or QJ. After the call on the turn and the Q falling on the river, would you be betting for value? Or is villain usually showing up with a higher flush here?

The UTG min-raise was odd, and thinking about it, I should have just raised it up when it folded around to me. Villain had been min-raising broadways earlier in the session. I donked out on a blank turn to see how he would react.

I hate the min-3bet. It seems to always come from someone in the BB who wants to get fancy. If it were another player, I would have just mucked KJ, but since it was KJs and this player had min 3bet several times before, I decided to see a relatively cheap flop. What do you think of my raise size on the flop and the bet on the turn? Are you betting the river and why?

I got a little tricky on this next hand. Before you go shouting at me about how I should 3bet pre, I had a plan and a reason for not doing so. If it were against one opponent, I would totally 3bet for value. The button call changed my feelings though. If villain was opening wide, I felt like he would fold to the 3 bet, which would likely get the button to fold as well, which isn't a bad result. However, if villain called the 3 bet, the button would likely overcall given the odds. Then I am way OOP against multiple opponents in a large pot, making it difficult if I miss the flop and have a draw heavy board that is not in my favor.

Obviously, the flop came almost perfectly for me. My question is regarding the AI semi-bluff. Would I have gotten more value out of the hand by seeing the turn/river or would it have killed my action? My logic is that if the villain is on an overpair QQ-TT, that I have both decent fold equity and a good chance of my hand holding up. If villain is raising a straight draw, then he is probably going to get it in when I shove. The only hands that I am the most worried about are two pairs or sets, however, both of those hands won't be holding my outs.

Anyways, let me know your thoughts.
