Re: QQ 5/10 horrible board
Post reads.
Cap it preflop and if bet into on the flop I'd either raise/fold to 3-bet or lay it down for 1 bet, depending on villain. The hand should have been played differently such that you...

Re: Did I get any street right?
I'd let this one go on the turn. With a stats of 12/8, it is unlikely this villain is playing back at you with air. I'd expect to be shown something like AhKh, AhQh, or AA-TT. I suspect you're...

Re: Are you a proven winner? Please help.

Re: two mid pairs vs LAGs
I'd check-raise the flop in hand 1. If you're 3-bet, it is the cheapest way to find out you're behind while also maximizing your earn when you're ahead. You'll call down if 3-bet but probably fold if...
