Guys.
Interested in your thoughts on these spots please.

Hand One.

Here, I felt that I could flat the BTN and evaluate a flop. As flops go, it wasn't the best but we're too strong to fold straight away. Turn does nothing to change my mind and part of me feels I might be able to bluff jam the river is a 3rd club hits. It does, only he shoves. What's the play and why? It's as polarised as it gets.

    Again, happy just to flat BB here. Flop is advantageous for our calling range in the BB so feel a check raise is the play. Turn is absolutely fine to fire 2nd barrell and I feel I have to fire a 3rd on the river as I block a lot of hands.

      Another bluff catching spot and a tricky river decision. I think my bet sizing was suspect here. Any advice on that please? I don't think villain has an A here, as any strong aces would surely look to 3bet pre and any weaker ones would either bet turn or call river IMO. Again, we have a spade blocker.

        Please post one hand at a time in the future.

        Hand #1: No way I could C the R all-in. You only have a bluff catcher and V has shown a consistently strong line.

        Hand #2: What, in your range, is chk-Ring this F? The T and R miss you and squarely hit V's range. Also note you didn't scare him, even after a flush T. I think the R is just burning $$$.

        Hand #3: Even if the V doesn't have an A, his most likely draw hits on the R. Sizing on the F and T are fine, Bing is the issue on the R.

        Thanks for the input, appreciate it.

        Hand 1 - duly noted. I guess it was just one of those moments where I had a 'feel'.

        Hand 2 - hands in my range would be all the sets, flush draws and 87s. Maybe 33 and 77?

        Hand 3 - fine, thanks. So, check call river?

        Thanks again, and I will aim to post only one hand next time.

        Ah, didn't know thanks. Could a mod redirect this there for me?

        Hand 2: Are you really chk-Ring with sets and straights on the F? I think a T chk-R is much more believable if that's what you are trying to represent.

        Hand 3: Since everything with the exception of the straight hits, the R is more like a chk-evaluate.
