** Summary **

Board: [ Qc 5d Kd 5c 4d ]

Main question is the flop. Do you just call or reraise? On the turn, he could be trapping, but if he isn't, i wanted to charge him full. He just called and checked the river, not many people would do that with KK or 55 so I pushed.

Hand 3a (whoops mislabled them the first time)

same guy as hand 3. Call or fold? Results later.

1) (and 4) ) I know you hate raising preflop, but I would definitely raise here since you are in position and want a bit of a pot. On the flop you have top two and nobody seems to have much so I would raise the max. Turn is a good card for you, so in case someone is still in there I fire again.

2) With 2nd set I like to find out on the flop whether I'm going to continue or not. With the draws out there, your opponent either has a good draw or has top set (or is mentally impaired). I like to make a checkraise on the flop when I have middle set, since that give you the clearest answer to the question whether there is a better hand out there. If I get reraised I fold, and if I get called I try to push with any safe turn card. Betting seems fine too, although this min raise is a bit weird. Any read? Maybe the min raise means your opponent has bottom set and tries to find out cheaply if he's good. Maybe the min raise means your opponent doesn't really know what to do. Anyway, I'd reraise a decent amount because even if he has two pair or bottom set you don't want him to hit a silly backup draw. On the turn do whatever you think will get the money in.

3a) I like the checkraise on the flop. Turn bet standard. On the river I'd check-call, since he most likely has a busted draw. But if I were him, I wouldn't bluff that river, since you're most likely calling...

3b) You are really playing a 2-card hand here that hardly has anything else to go with the QQ and in EP that may not always be a good idea. You need an unraised multiway pot to make playing this hand profitable and even when you have your perfect flop (as in the hand), you are hampered by having to act first on all streets.
Anyway, if you think someone will bet you might try a checkraise on the flop. You only invested 25 cts, so if you miss there is not much harm done. Throughout the hand it is a mystery what your opponent has; against a bad player I might try to use a small blocking bet on the river, say $2 into the $7 pot. If he raises I'd fold, unless I've seen him raise the river with non-nut hands.

4) Again, I'd raise big preflop. Now you have no clue what you're up against, but you figure to have about 13 outs. I wouldn't mind shoving all my money in here. Sure, if he has top set it's going to be a gamble, but he might just be testing the waters with two pair or middle set and fold his hand if you show heavy aggression....
