    1) Fold preflop. As played fold turn too. Your EP raises could easily mean you have a big set/2 pairs and he's not afraid of any of that because a) he's got a flush or 2) he's got AK himself

    2) Check behind turn and flat river -- you are only beating random bluffs or splitting. What hands do TAGs limp-call PF OOP? Probably just pocket pairs.

    3) Call. If he has AA/KK it's a cooler.

    Hand 1
    Fold, Too many people call with AK in his spot. Even if he only has the A but a redraw to the flush he is still ahead of you I think.

    Hand 2:
    If this guy is really a TAG who limp calls it's mostly going to be a pocket pair. He flat calls the flop and then check raises the turn which screams set.

    Hand 3:
    PFR of 5 over how many hands?
    What is his PF 3bet %?

    I've been finding that most people at these steaks of FRNL are not RR'ing with much less than AA or KK.
    His hand also screams AA: RR PF, Check A high flop, Check raises turn, pushes river....

    As played, call the river and look him up. Make a note of what he had!

    1) Fold
    2) Sucks but it's probably a set. Crying fold I think.
    3) If his pfr is 5% then his 3bet% is even lower. Pre-flop I'd put him on QQ+/AK. I don't think QQ or KK c/r the turn like that. QQ certainly doesn't bet the river. I would also expect AK to cbet the flop. I'd say his range on the river is AA/AK with AA being most likely. Pretty sucky spot. You should probably fold but it's hard to do so during the actual hand I'm sure.
    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    #1 - folding preflop is meh, players are poor at 50nl generally so ill sometimes pfr Axs in EP esp since they are likely to call with alot of non Ax hands. flop i felt calling his bet is fine (shoving sucked IMO and im likely never that far ahead of his range here).

    I shoved he showed 85s so preflop is ok anyway

    #2 - I think ive a leak in betting turn with 2 pair vs TAG. I feel standard is to check behind bcoz either opp has a set or underpair, there are enough marginal hands in his range to make turn +EV i imagine. so i check behind and bet or call a less than PSB.

    #3 - I found a FOLD ppl!!!!!!!!!!!
