Hand 1
2nd nuts. Only option is to push right? We don't want combo draws to see river, and we want value from 2p or a set.

Hand 2: I've tangled with villain a bunch, been 3 betting light. Never seen him show this much aggression, and he's seen me call some light stuff PF before. the open shove makes me feel like it might be AK or AQ trying to push out mid/high pp

Hand 4:
This is PiratePeaty (fun to play vs. but I only play him when I have position). He'll spew a lot, or push you out of lots of pots. If you don't know him, very loose aggressive player. Sometimes he makes moves that you'd be shocked about, but then its great for meta game when he shows down crazily played hands

anyway, I'm wondering what he had to play it like this...with any other player you're assuming he is calling with that much money in the pot already...I thought he would too, then wondered what he might have that he'd fold there? defnitely not AK, i think he calls for that much $. Maybe JJ?

anyone like a minraise 4bet instead of the push?
