What's wrong with this line if anything? Maybe raise pre? Not folding on flop just wondering if shoving here is bad?

The only debatable thing I see here is not raising pre, but that's okay. Well played.

yeah I like this line. Maybe sometimes lead out on the flop with the intention of calling a shove, or 3 betting all in over a raise. Either way, you want all your chips in the pot on the flop. If he has you beat then good for him.

I'd probably rather lead out than checking. I'd hate letting Kx/Tx/clubs check back and play that ugly turn with our stack. Pf either way seems fine to either limp or raise imo. Sounds like you lost and are being semi-results oriented. Getting 2pr in on any flop 3 handed is always fine.

I like leading the flop too. Way too many scary turn cards if it's checked through. As played, C/S is correct.

I don't like checking bottom two pair usually but it's still fine imo.

4500~ or so otf. Betting less lets draws in too cheap and more lets some worse hands fold that might peel.
