Re: in the SB w/ 55 (come and play)
I think pre-flop your fine with a call. On the flop, your position makes it a raise/fold situation, with calling (in my opinion) being your worst option.
It really depends on your table image,...

I like it, it's possible he though you were also semi-bluffing a draw on the turn (since it is laden with good draws at that point), and he may bluff with a lot of worse hands than 77 here.

Re: KQ for TP - fold it or not?
As stated in previous posts, your play here is fine. Folding here is not an option as the pot is way to big to fold on any street.

Re: 3-6 Pocket 10\'s
I would bet again, but slow down if you get overcalled again. River play depends on if it's a non straight/flush card and how many opponents go to the river with you.

it really depends on your reads on your opponents play. You will play the turn differently against aggressive players than passive ones. Which players are you expecting to get a bluff out of?
