Thanks for the taking the time to watch and comment, Lucid.

@9:45. i'm not sure if i like the call here pf.
I'll raise there a lot too, call sometimes... just depends what mood I'm in. Both are productive plays at 5NL IMO. Once you're less than 100BB deep, you want to skew a lot more toward either raising or folding.

@11:20 fold wtf? i take this here just to check if he has a9+, kt+, etc. at these levels (even up to 25nl) people basically tell you what hand they have on the turn. i wait to see turn to see if he still likes his hand. also, if it comes an ace, you can bet if he folds and make him fold 99. just more options. i like callling ip with an overpair here
Saying 'an overpair' is generic and a little misleading... 88 on a 7-high board just is weak. I don't really beat anything but a bluff or a 7. Yeah, maybe he's just stabbing with ace-queen or something... but my feel for that particular opponent was I was pretty sure he was on an overpair. If he wasn't he still had 6 outs on me; if he was I had 2 outs on him. Since:
1. I don't want to get heavily involved with what is really a very marginal holding;
2. I expect him to fire a lot of turns;
3. I'm going to hate pretty much ANY turn card; and
4. I never want to assume I can bluff anyone off a hand, especially not when I'm turning top or second pair into a bluff;
Just folding now is the safest, and I think wisest, play.

@20:47. not sure why heads up you fold overpair yet in a multiway pot with a passive preflop raiser you are calling his pot sized flop bet. he obviously has overpair most of the time (because he is pot sized betting into a BUNCH of players on crappy board texture) and sets, straights, and two pair nail the other two players ranges. i think this is a fairly easy fold w/no real redraws. just saw results of hand. ya he had an overpair... and other guy had pair+oosd. like i said, this flop sucks for you. i would fold
You're right. This was one of my spewy calls I hated after I re-watched the thing. The main difference that made me call was the aggrodonk behind me; I expected he would raise a lot as a bluff, and then I'd get to see what the original raiser did before making my decision (and I would probably stack off TT there to the aggrodonk if the original raiser folds.) But the original raiser is on QQ-AA so much there, for the reasons you stated, that folding is better.

@27. kqs 2 pair. bet big (close to pot) here every time. if he likes his hand, he will call no matter the size and same for folding w/ size. at this level dont worry about them thinking about bet sizing meaning anything. they look at their hand. if they like it, they call no matter what. if they dont, the fold no matter what.
I actually disagree; I should have either bet
smaller or checked. The reason is, I'm in against an extreme aggrodonk. And to jiggle an aggrodonk's ****** switch (and induce him to bluff off his stack), you act weak. Betting strongly into an aggrodonk is the WORST thing you can do. Big, big -EV move by me there IMO. I should have made a weak bet like 1/3 pot, or just checked to him. Check turn if he calls.

@28:25. this looks like another easy fold. i think its just spew to think you are ahead here enough to make this +ev. micro limits is about maximizing your huge +ev hands not squeezing out marginal spots
I call because I'm getting more than 3 to 1 for a small bet, and I can easily let go of it if the moron that led for a minbet reraises. If he'd made a real bet or if the second guy had made a real raise, it's an easy fold, yes.
