Just a quick checkup, I wanna make sure I'm playing these correctly...

No stats, but Button seems like a wannabe TAG and MP is a complete moran(Laggish), SB is new, so lets assume hes a monkey

Why did you call called with A4s?

[/ QUOTE ]If you're talking about his preflop call, I think the move was good, given the odds he was getting, with a possible chance at the nut flush, plus when it was raised again, the odds made another call mandatory.

1. I would just call here, the 16-1 odds are pretty compelling at least to see what develops on the turn. Maybe raise the turn to see if your ace is good, though it probably isn't, and drop if you are reraised.

2. I would raise this to see if MP is serious about playing this hand, unlikely he's on a flush draw, but he is losse so this will help you narrow down his holdings.

3.Fold

4. Call and look to checkraise the turn if you sense weakness.

5.Fold, not getting involved with those two maniacs behind me.

All of this could be completely wrong so criticize please.

1. Call. We've got TPWK, 3 certainly clean outs to two pair, and 1 out to a straight. Certainly worth seeing the next card.

2. Raise and lead the turn, folding to further aggression.

3. Fold. We're not getting nearly as nice a price as we were in the first example, and this could get expensive if MP 3-bets.

4. This is the only tough one. I probably call and donkbet any turn.

5. Raise to fold any weak aces.
