    Wow, without reads those are some seriously sticky situations. As for the last one though, Ad3d is definately a possibility. The other two you may be up against sets, but without reads I'm not sure if you can really say.

    Tough, all very tough. Being able to fold/call in these situations is where you either make or lose a lot of money.

    Why is there no way you fold on the first hand? I fold that almost EVERYTIME. The person isn't just check calling the flop with a definate draw, he could have KQ. He could even have some monster like trips or two pair, trying to get you to be into him more. Then he assures me he is beating you when he check raises you all in on the turn. I fold there, especially with no read. If you find out later this guy does this with AK or maybe just nothing, then you can get him another time.

    2nd hand is very tough, but i think i'd call. He could have a set, but thats a low possibility. You are beating 99-JJ, and KK-AA would probably reraise. He could be an idiot with A8.

    If he has 67, then he is a do*che.

    Wow these are some tough spots. First hand (AA) I fold it without a read. Sure smells like a set or KQ.

    2nd hand (QQ) I think is a fairly routine fold, but seems difficult since the board is so nonthreatening. I mean goaler30 comes over the top of 2 raises, so he has to know you have a big pair and expects/wants to get called. Also, you don't have a read on WellHung, so if you do call, you still have WellHung to act after you. If he likes to weak lead his sets you are toast.

    3rd hand (A9) is tricky. I would go for a check/call on the river. The pot is still relatively small, so you can afford to call a decent sized bet on the end. Plus you can pick off a busted flush draw. If you don't like check/calling, then put out a blocking bet, something like $4. $8 is a bit much, and when he comes over the top of that I think it's an easy fold. If he plays a busted draw like this you will get his money soon enough.

    On the first hand i have seen people wait till the turn to semi bluff a flush draw. Maybe in this case he has A Q diamond and hit the queen also so just pushes it. K Q looks like a good posibility also

    AA beat KT. Yes KT.
    QQ folded. With that board he has to have a set.
    A9 lost to straight (A3). I should have folded but I figured busted flush.
