*shrug* those guys were all pretty big suckers. On one of those tables I dropped $80 to the sucker between a fast AK and a 3-outed KK.

Hand 1: I put the short-buy on a big pair on the flop probably AA/KK/AQ/KQ. The lead into strength then double cold call just SCREAMED draw. Bottom 2 pair looks really good and pushing is really my best play against a flush draw, because he's not making a terrible mistake calling anything less than that once he calls the first push as I'd really like to maximize my chances winning the main pot. This guy also so much as said he was on tilt. He tanked for a few seconds, then made the terrible call.

Hand 2: Loose call on my part. Short money and this guy was doing shit like re-raising pre-floip with Q4s and bumping up any pot to $4 when limped to. He clearly wanted to gamble and I decided to gamble with him.

Hand 3: Key here is that it's the same opponent as hand 2. We've established that he likes to play draws fast, so the weak lead (which he hadn't been doing much of) signaled he had a piece. JTx two tone is a really nasty board to play multiple streets on with a big pair and there is a lot of money in the pot. Also, people tend to interpret your actions in the framework they play under. So I swung for fences here and represented a semi-bluff over-bet push. I seemed to remember these getting called a lot anyway, so I may as well get called with Aces.
