    1: I'll get controversial and say fine
    2: There are arguments for raising, calling and folding pre.. I don't mind your fold as long as you don't have reads that UTG is stupid
    3: Calling is high variance and probs marginally +EV. I don't fold there, I don't think he shoves better hands than one pair + draw in that spot.
    4: Maybe 5 or so. I like a vbet here, I just don't want the kind of bet that pushes out KT and stuff like that.

    1: You can call, but a fold is fine too.

    2: Fold this pre to such a tiny preflop raise? :O AQ is a top hand, play it. Flop is nice for our hand too.. you need some sort of a read to know how to proceed. I definately would call the flop minraise.

    3: You got like 13 outs, so it's about even money to call or fold. You like coinflips? Then call ^^

    4: You have half a pot bet left right? All in then.

    Hand 3 is an easy all-in.
    Shove Hand 4 if you think you're good. I usually check here, but then again I play against tighter sorts.

    1: either way is fine. I really hate folding AK suited at those stakes preflop, but it just depends on the villain, but unfortunately we dont know squat about him.

    2: definitely never fold preflop here. and post flop uhhh. A lot of times min raises for a decent bet post flop are usually good hands, but you pretty much have the 3rd nuts, and he probably minraises KQ, AK, AQ, even JJ because he is most likely an idiot.

    3: i agree with jack and ash

    4: shove, if you are 98% sure you are good.

    hand 1 i probly just fold.

    hand 2 i don't fold pre. if you call the raise, it's probly gonna cost you the rest of his stack on turn. so i guess depending on how loose he is...hell i'm not sure. if i shoved he'd show KK if i fold he shows KQ.

    hand 3 i agree with fnord

    hand 4 looks like a busted draw... i probly just check back. i get kinda fidgety around all this c/calling.

    For all of you suggesting that I check back hand 4, you gotta realize I know I'm good here and it's just a matter of how much value I can get out of this.

    For hand 2, I should probably be raising or folding instead of calling, no?

    shove the last hand even if they are super tight, you have them crushed, maybe they have 23ss but thats like never

    sometimes they have QJss but seriously checking that would be giving away money
