Jeff.

Those hands are unbelieveable. hehehe

They all look pretty standard to me.

Bet the final hand.

1. Standrad, we're probably beat here quite often but we just can't fold with those odds.

2. Squeeze preflop, AK is awkard 3 way especially oop. I just bet the turn looking to get it in, he'll have a worse ace here lots. I also raise more on the flop.

3. Std up until river, but I probably stick the rest in here. Thing is if we c/c we pay off all his better hands (which he have to anyway) and and we allow 10s and weaker hands to check it back. Stick it in to get value from these.

4. Bet flop - get it in.

[ColdDecked]

Hand 1: Raise the flop harder. Considering that the villain is so passive, I may fold this river, depending on my read.

Hand 2: Don't check raise here into a multiway pot. Bet the flop. If the villain pushes your check raise, you might end up throwing away the best hand. As played, raise harder.

Hand 3: Multiway pot, draw-heavy board -> bet harder on the flop. You're not folding the river, so just push it in yourself. Since your opponent is a station, you should really just value bet everything. On a side note, work on that bet sizing.

Hand 4: Limp 3bets in early position is usually so polarized. I might shove preflop if I were you given this fact and that he's a station. On the flop, bet? I won't bet too big here since you have the key card Ac here. KK usually gets it in preflop and QQ isn't that likely given the board, so he it's likely that he has AK here, so bet.
