    Here are 2 hands I didn't play in the first one, thought it might be relevant that's why it's there. Villian has been at the table for about 5 orbits and hasnt been to involved or in any big pots.

    1: yeah I fold too.. usually AA/KK, the odd time it's AK you're flipping

    2: flop has 3 to a flush, 1 card to a straight, and a 7 or a bigger overpair beats you here.. size of his bet tells me it's most likely for value.. I'd fold.

    Drinking your milkshake.
    Probably these should be in the shorthanded forum?

    Anyway, the first one I just call the 3 bet with QQ and play poker with position on the flop. Reads are nice in these spots. As played, fold.

    Not sure about the turn bet in hand two, but maybe I give up too easy. I think we have to fold the river unless we've seen opp bluff busted hands.

    slow motion
    hand 1: fold is good here for sure. I probly call his raise pre also, but mixing it up is good.

    hand 2: I slow way down on the turn. As played fold the river.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    hand 1 unless we know opponent well as aggro/loose fold
    hand 2 I think you basically have nothing and have to fold, he might have nothing but thats the advantage of position. I think you need to check that turn.
