I'm not trying to be mean but why post so much in these types of threads? It'll only make things worse; I've been there.

Also, I think some of these hands aren't played optimally tbh. For example, the 3bet hand where you flat 97o and raise his cbet from $3 to $10...why raise so big? KJcc hand seems spewy vs. what we perceive as a nit. I'd fold pre/call flop. 33 FH hand seems iffy on the river...I mean what types of hands do we expect him to call with?

btw, in that last hand, i'm def not always shoving the turn, but, when he makes the big turn raise, i actually don't think he has a big hand, but rather a small hand he thinks is good but is kinda scared and wants to end the betting. i fully expected him to call it off with KJ, smth like that. QQ is close.

ok, this is not a beat cuz i won, yay, but...

is AK good here? um, no
