Thanks for the input MVP, the hands you mentioned were hands I think I could have played differently.
The KTs hand were I raised in the SB against the megafish in the BB and flopped a GS and 1 over was exactly the type of hand I would play very differently elsewhere. I could have easily CBet the flop, but pretty much decided not to CB that player. I would have folded had he bet more, but he gave me such a good price. Hitting the GS would have probably given me his stack, with his TP hand (the gin card would have actually made him 2-pair).
The 86 FD hand was one I felt I could have easily played more aggro, I was planning on floating/ semi-bluffing the turn since I was IP and he either had an A or he was giving up, his SB steal attempt could have been anything. Actually this hand and the next hand were I get another FD (this time OOP) were ones I was probably the most unsure of.
The Yepik hand (one of the 2 tight players) hand was a little interesting, I could make a case for all 3-options in the SB there. If I had knew that the super loose player in the BB was going to fold I definately think folding is the best play, however I figured that there was a really good chance the 50 VPIP guy was going to tag along as well there, then playing for set value is super profitable. Since he folded it left me in a bad spot against a solid player. AK, KQ are definately a big part of his range there and C/R the flop seemed a little too expensive for the amount of cash in the pot. Still this is an spot that I certainly may not have played optimally.
