Hand 1: 7 handed game

Hero - HJ - $1100 - young playing a solid tag game - I've 3 bet villian 2 times so far he folded twice.

Villan - utg+1 - $4000 - young male that is limping too many hands, raising a wide range and playing aggressive mostly in good spots. Seems like a good lag thinking player.

2/5/10 AKdd

Utg folds villian raises to 25, I make it 60 from hj folds back to villian he makes it 150. Thoughts? I thought about 5 bet going but wasn't sure what his 6 bet ship range would be vs me since I was playing pretty tag. Also I don't mind playing in position with a strong hand and let him do something crazy.

I call flop is QT9dsc he bets 200?

Hand #2: 8 handed
Hero - $880 SB
Villian 1 HJ- $~700 - lag donkish - raising a lot of hands - plays a decent post flop game
Villian 2 CO - $800 on tilt mixing it up between loose aggressive and loose passive - fishy
Villian 3 BTN - $4000 same from hand #1
Villian 4 BB - $2000 playing too loose pre flop aggressive post flop when he has a price of it passive other wise - stationy

2/5/10 QJhh
Folds to villian 1 who makes it 35, villian 2 and 3 call. I call villian 4 calls.

Flop - $180 AhQc9h
I check, villian 4 bets $100 villian 1 calls villian 2 folds and villian 3 calls. I choose to call here (thoughts on raising?)

Turn $580 Qs
I check villian 4 checks villian 1 bets 300 villian 3 folds, on me with $750 behind?

lol what

hand 1 - 3b is way too small, as played 5b $410/snap call
you say he's a LAG, just get it in pre

hand 2 - you're not thinking about folding are you?

also, this belongs in LLSNL

hand 2 against this player i think i like a shove more than a call, we're ahead of him most of the time (i think we hear from him earlier if he had AQ/99) and he might call off the remaining $450 with his draws

Why was 3b way to small? And it was mandatory $10 straddle.

you want your opponents to make mistakes, with your sizing it would be correct for him to call with 100% of his range, you basically min-raised him. he could put a lot of pressure on you on various boards when you still only have A high

now this wasn't the case, but if i knew we could induce him into 4b light by 3b small, then i like it more

Hand 1: This is the third time that you have 3! this V. There is a decent chance that he is playing back/leveling with you. 5! to $440 and GII.

Hand 2: C/r flop to $350; shove turn.

Hand 1 - 3bet needs to be larger. As deep as you are I'd go 75-90. Winning preflop is not bad. And if you get to postflop you want a lower stack to pot ration with top pair type hands.

hand 2- shove

Hand 1 - 3b seems way too small to me, even IP. I'd make it $75+.

If you've already 3b him twice then I don't love the 3b here IF you're going to be confused facing a 4b. Seems like dynamic suggests he's going to play back at you, so I'd 5b/GII.

As played, well this flop rams our 3b/flat 4b range. I don't mind shoving this once in a while here, as this is mostly our only bluff in this spot. Can villain fold AQ here?

Hand 2- I don't hate a call here. Villain may turn hands into bluffs on heart rivers. I don't think ppl are b/c JT/KJ stuff here on the turn. He's also probably not betting AK/AJ on this turn necessarily.
