Hi BreakEven,

Hand #1-I would have folded the turn when bet into.

Hand #2-Call the turn bet and see the river.

Hand #3-Bet the river. You have no chance of winning if you don't bet.

Hand #4-Played it fine.

Hand #5-Tough choice. I'd like to see what others think.

Hand #1 - It is probably safe to fold the turn

Hand #2 - Good laydown, IMO. There are still 2 people to act behind, and it is possible you're drawing dead.

Hand #3 - I struggle with this one. The pot is so small that I don't think check-fold on the river is terrible, but betting is the only way to pick it up.

Hand #4 - Good.

Hand #5 - You should fold the turn unless you think he'd bluff the danger card. If you're going to call the turn, call the river.

Hand 5 he either needs to fold to the turn raise, or call the turn raise and call the river. His line is inconsistant. I fold to the turn raise.
