#1) This is 6 max at Tibeca $2/$4 NL
I just raised to $16 with AA. A guy went all in for $75 and of course I called.

Very next hand. Im in the BB with [Kh]. 3 limpers and I raise to $24 UTG calls. he has the max buy in of $300 and I have him covered.

Pot $56. Flop [9d][6h]. I bet $40 and he calls.
Pot $136. Turn . What do you do?

#2) $5/$10 6 max at Tribeca
Cutoff limps, I raise to $40 with [Kh]. SB and the limper both call. SB has $840, Limper has $580. I cover.

Pot $130 Flop [4d][2h]. SB checks, Cutoff leads $100. I saw him call a raise once before and lead full pot. The guy called and then this guy pushed the turn and didnt showdown.

So he leads $100, I call, and the SB also calls.

Pot $430. Turn They both check. Whats my play?

#3) $2/$4 5 max at Pokerroom....

I raise to $16 UTG with [Qd]. BB calls.

Pot $36. Flop [7d][3h]. He checks, I bet $27 and he min check raises. UGH!

Heres my only read. On another table he played this hand. He raised to $16 with AJ. 2 callers. Flop Q62 checked around. Turn A. One guy led $15, next guy called, villain raised to $50, got called, then it got raised to $115, then villain pushed all in with a full $400. of course any fool can see hes beaten and he was beaten by both guys. A6 and 22.

So back to the hand. He min check raised me. I call.

Pot $144 Turn . He bets $80. If I call we will both have $200 left. Thoughts?

#4) $2/$4 5 max.
I raise to $16 with QQ. Next guy pops it to $50. He has $250 total. Whats the plan?

Push?
Call and get all in on any non A or K flop?
Something else?

Because the flop is really coordinated.
When it's like that I tend to bet pot.

But this is kind of a whatever point.

1. i usually just lead here again repping a missed A[Kd] on the flop. I don't think shobutes play is bad either.

2. i bet the turn.. fold to a raise and/or probably check behind on the river. probably.

3. call the flop miniraise looks ugly though. if he checks the turn or bets weakly... you probably have him. his $80 bet look good... i think i may fold here.

4. i need some kind of read... anything.

#1) I checked the turn..he bet $62 and I called. The river blanked and I check folded to his all in. I came so close to calling, but just as I was about to, the timer ran out and it sat me out. I told the guy that and he said that I was lucky because he had a set. No way of knoing if he was lying of course.

I hadnt even considered the CRAI. I have to think more about that. Its not a bad idea.

#2) The pot was $430. I shoved it all in. SB folded and the cutoff called with 99.

#3) I called the $80 and called his river all in. If I hadnt seen the other hand that I listed I probably wouldve just folded to the min check raise because Ive lost more money in my career from that play than any other. The dufus had [6d]

#4) I really dont know if theres any way around this one. I called and check raised the all rag flop all in. He called with KK. QQ vs KK in a 5 max game when the guy has just over 1/2 a stack? What are you gonna do?

havent read other replies, but:

hand 1: checkraise all in...but not against a calling station or a really good thinking player.

hand 2: check behind. call most rivers, bet if checked to.

hand 3: call flop, call turn. call most rivers. the size of his bet makes me think KQ/QJ/QT instead of a set.

hand 4: call, evaluate flop. go from there.

Hand1. Without specific reads I would check, I am not worried too much about the flush, as he is the only caller, but AJ, A9 and sets are all posible. And I am going to fire on the river if he checks behind on turn, this way I will maximize if he floated float with small PP.

Hand2. I would minraised flop to see what SB is going to do, if he pushes I could fold. As played I would check this turn.

Hand3. Well, he is a donkey, but I would still fold this.

Hand4. Without reads I would play for set in this situation.
