    Default 3/6 - a few river spots

    Hand 1
    -villain is G kastone on stars. He's pretty aggro in general, and 3bets me reasonably often.
    -He was new to the table today, so no dynamic in the session. He probably views me as 20/17ish, and I'm not sure if he notices or not that I open pretty tight in EP
    -His donk leads were pretty quick. I decide that if I raise the flop, the might convince himself that he induced and prob not fold too easily. The board is dry enough that I can call down and make a move on later streets
    -river donk is very fast
    -his wtsd is 24%

    Hand 2
    -is this the worlds easiest river fold?
    -dynamic is that villain behind me has squeezed at every opportunity. his 3bet is around 17 and squeeze stat for session at around 34 or something ridiculous
    -main villain in this hand: cbet vs me earlier and I called IP on somewhat drawy board, and then he c/c turn vs me and I bet river again and he c/f. So he might think I'm getting out of line
    -villain was playing loosish pre, but no real reads on how aggro he barrels etc.

    Hand 3
    -I had been minraising almost every button. Villain has called most of my button opens. A few times he c/r flop and I folded. The last orbit he donk lead into me, I raised him and took it away later. My read was that he probably viewed calling as not a great option, after what happened previous hand, so he's 3betting me light here.
    -4bet sizing is bad, and I should have made it bigger. Didn't anticipate a call from him at all, and have no reads on his calling of 4bets OOP

    1: I think calling is better than shoving.
    2: Looks like a pretty easy fold to me, just sucks getting sick odds.
    3: I'd call.

    I would rather call with KK than the nut flush.

    Hand 1: I'd fold the flop, Gkastone isn't crazy or something is he? As played I'd fold river and call does seem better than raise.

    Hand 2: Given a reg opponent who is sane id probably fold but I'm very tempted to call here.

    Hand 3: You should just call here.

    Hand 1 : I dunno caus doesn't this board smack a reg's SB calling range. I don't think he's b/folding stuff like 66/77 with (i imagine he'd just c/fold) so it seems like he has air or the goods. I'd just fold the turn.

    Hand 2: Fold...

    Hand 3: Damn I would definitely consider folding here...in fact I think it's a fold but shoving just seems atrocious.
    Family Cruise IMO
