    Hand 2 is clear river fold for me, we're only beating bluffs that he's floating on the flop. Not sure I'd bet the flop myself, but then I doubt I'd bet AK since I don't want him folding his junk.

    Hand 1 is different, villain's flop raise could be 77-JJ, I think I'm happy to get it in on flop. Turn is horrible obv, but only hits a small part of his range. We were either already crushed, or we're still way ahead. I'd be in on flop though, so I'm not sure what to do as played on this turn.

    hand 1 - i like bigger pre, style thing perhaps
    c-bet bigger, call or fold vs c-raise both fine vs a 13-8. Calling is better though.
    fold turn, nh sir

    hand 2 - nice pre, flop sizing is fine, so is smaller. Turn is interesting. Barrel or check-fold, check-call any river if turn checks through

    Hand 1 make it $0.60 on the flop. If 13/8 is over a large sample, the rest of the hand is probably well played. If it's a really small sample, reraise flop.
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    H1 - Looks good, doubt he c/r's 99/TT/JJ always or bets this turn this big, bigger pre though.

    H2 - Fold as the only air he can have here is QJ/QT which you block. Could bet/fold turn small for thin value.

    Hand 1: Assign him a range, then call the turn. Re-raising the flop is meh.

    hand 1: not really a bad fold, there are better spots to pick but is he the type of player to c/r flop with big aces? If not, then calling turn is probably okay and evaluate river. I'm not sure though if 4-bet/ jam flop is a good play here.
    hand 2: im calling. weird line for A-x, K-x.
    hand 3: Agree, cbet K73 board.

    ya i think hand 1 is played fine. 3-betting flop seems terrible unless you have a note that says he can stack any overpair on a dry flop.

    Im glad somene said this. my thoughts on his range were Im crushing on the flop cos nobody raises boats and quads (this is actualy a lie! most fucking wank regs do; they think everyone else cant fold overpairs so they dont care about how little they are repping) he fires the turn turning almost everyhand he raises the flop for value with into a bluff repping only boats and quads, but his pure flop bluffs with A high are now crushing but he must certainly know there are no aces in my range except AA so what the fuck bets this big for value here? If I call, I cant call again on the river so I fold getting sticky with medium srength hands is something Im trying to eliminate from my game. calling here to fold the river is expensive mistake so I make what maybe the cheaper mistake and fold. then posted it here to see how bad a mistake it was.
