    Hand 1: You can still fold PF; your pot odds are ~2:1 and you are ~3:1 against any overpair, so this is a bad call without your implied odds, which are still pretty bad since you will only flop 2 pair + hands around 5% of the time and you still have to get your opponents whole stack in.

    Flop: got to put it all in. Overpairs would play the flop the same way.

    Hand 2:

    why couldn't he have a smaller overpair or 10-x? Call turn, C/C river.

    Hand 3:

    I would have bet the turn. This way you find out if your opponent also has a 2, or a FH. Still, once he checked behind you after he raised the flop, and now he decided to raise the river i call it. It looks like a bluff to me, or a poorly played 2-x hand.

    Hand 1: Fold to the re-raise. No use getting tricky with 5 7 sooted...you tried to steal the blinds and you got re-raised.

    Hand 2: Played it too weak. Re-raise the turn and see what he does. Could have Tx....I would have pushed this much harder.

    Hand 3: He was testing on the flop to see if you had a 2. When you checked on the turn and he checked also, that told you he did not have a 2. So, He probably had A4 or a small PP. I'd call that river min raise because you are goot here more often than not.

    1. fold preflop no implied odds.
    2. call, see what he does on the river.
    3. c/c reasonable river bet. Prob 44 but maybe 2x, and your kicker sucks.
