I meant to fold preflop due to stack sizes, but as played I wanted his stack and slowplayed. Turned out to be a dumb move.

No read. Was hoping he just had Ax. Didn't believe he had a 9 so I tried to bluff on river.

1- I'd do the same.
2- build the pot to get all in by the river. there are many options on the flop, but now on the turn just bet strong or check/raise.
3- with no reads, just fold the flop. a more effective bluff is to c/r all in on the turn repping a 9, but you need a read for that imo, such as solid tag.
4- this one is tricky oop and no reads. I'd rather lead the flop than c/r, and it might be weak, but I'd prob just fold to a flop raise without pot odds. I mean, what hands raise this flop...I don't want to play oop vs that range.
as far as check/raising...no better hands will fold to a c/r, and not a ton of worse hands will call. you also won't get to check behind on the turn. so it doesn't serve a purpose imo, but does build a pot with a marginal hand oop.
I'm not too sure about the turn, but I like the check/fold on the river.

Hand 1: seems fine. I'm calling his shortstacked push alot here unless I think he wouldn't push JJ/QQ

Hand 2: If you're not going to lead the flop, lead the turn. If you don't lead the turn, c/r the turn.

Hand 3: Muck the turn, river is spewage.

Hand 4: Your c/r is bad. You're building a big pot with a crappy hand OOP. If you want to play a big pot, lead/3bet. I'd check/call flop and lead turn or check/call flop and c/r turn as alternatives. I cannot stress enough how much I hate the flop c/r since I have put myself in so many terrible spots with decent but not good hands by doing the same thing.

Hand 1 - Looks like medium PP. Because of the pot odds easy call.

When posting hands, remove action after your last decision so it doesn't influence other poster's thought processes.

Hand 2 - If you want his stack you have to think about how you are going to make him put it all-in. He has $6 behind so you need to make a $2 and a $4 bet. Or you could do $1, $2, $3.

Since he is so short flop isn't terrible. On the turn since it was checked through you need to bet. Either the he has the A and will raise you, putting all the $$ in or he doesn't and you aren't winning any $$ anyway.

Hand 3 - River bluffs with no read aren't so hot. You realize that Ax (and basically everything else) beats you on the river. Better lines than check/call, check/call: bet/fold flop, check/raise the flop, call/donk bet turn, check/fold flop.

Again, don't show that he called as this influences the hand.

Hand 4 - This seems like a good fold. As played, I probably call (hmmm, leak?).

You have to raise more on the flop. You are giving villain 4:1 odds to call, and you are OOP. Make it $4 if you want a fold. But then you are playing in an escalating pot OOP with no idea where you stand. I hate playing OOP.

Blocking bet on river, $6, fold to raise?

Thank you all for the help!!
