    Hand one I think is spew. I don't think you have any FE on a $10 and everything that would call you beats you. If you want FE, raise flop.

    Hand 2 is standard. If you check and another Q falls you throw up in your mouth. Rule of thumb at low levels is make a hand and bet it. AA is a made hand on this board. If they folded you weren't getting any more out of them anyway. If they had QT or QJ even, they woulda called.

    Hand 3--I instacall against the shorty. They will flip a lot of stuff here, and most of it is hilarious.....

    Hand 4--why check river? I probably call. If he spiked his set and filled up GG. Raising flop is better and the hand plays easier from there IMO.

    Hand 5 I think is okay, but you could raise flop and/or turn too.....Quads are hard to get paid off.

    1. Raise flop to $4. As played, call turn and hope you have 6 clean outs.

    2. Pre-flop re-raise is a little bigger than necessary, but you got two callers so nvm. Post-flop is standard. No merit to checking behind/betting less.

    3. Sure, gambool.

    4. Standard until the river. Don't check. As played I call and pay off a FH here.

    5. I raise pre-flop. Your line worked fine obv, but you could raise the turn since it really looks like he has a K.
