    Hand 2: This villain saw me make a big hero call on the river for all my chips which seemed kinda stationesque. Once again, wtf kind of line is this?

    1. Villain's range includes a lot of non-Js here. I think you're good here more often than not but I think a fold is good, too.

    2. Can't click the call button fast enough.

    3. I want to play two pair here pretty fast. As in, find a way to get a lot of money in on the flop. You can either donk-lead out for like 1/3 pot that is begging to be reraised or go for 3/4-pot bet. I guess check-raise is OK if you are confident PFR will bet here but in general, I hate to give a free card here.

    Alright, so I'll take a stab at this... Though bear in mind I am running pretty shitty over the last 4 months (-25% ROI!.. though +90%ish for the year) and am by no means an expert.

    Hand 1:
    Meh. He's probably ahead imo. I guess if you call here you're essentially committed for the rest of your stack. He might be pullin this crap with something like QT or a heart draw though of course. You're right, it is a messed-up line. I'd fold here. Can't marry TT on a J-high board.


    Hand 2:

    LOL. I dunno. Usually, when the bet is out of line, the cards are too. So maybe he hits his 88 set and gets excited and wants to play it tricky, also mitigating for the potential straight draws on board. Of course, having said that, you pretty much have to call here with so little information. If I were to set up a range of hands to put this guy on, AA would still come out victorious a decent percentage of the time.


    Hand 3:

    I don't like messing around too much with flops like these. Lead out with a fairly large bet, maybe a bit less than the size of the pot, and go from there.


    Now I'll sit back and watch as chardrian or mcat come out and make my suggestions look like total donkness.
