Re: TJo BB... Confused on all streets.
I think that's a reasonable line. A minraise often means a spade draw, sometimes a ten, sometimes a straight draw. I'd call the min-raise, then lead out the turn (even a spade) and be done with the...

Re: AA - is this the way to play it?
I don't think a blocking bet is much good on the river. The pot is $24.36 - a blocking bet of $5 isn't going to do anything. Check/calling is fine - this will pick up busted draws. I'm not sold...

Re: miniraising limpers from the BB?
I think if you try this, as soon as someone decides to repop it bigtime like 4_2_it is saying, you need to stop. You're sweetening the pot at the risk of getting blown off your hand by someone...

Re: Bad River Push??
I think the turn and river lead are fine, but slow down when he raises. Unless you've seen him way overvalue 1 to trips, he's not 3-betting with much you beat.
His preflop raise with K8 is a bit...

If you have no reads on how aggressive he is specifically check-raising, I think a push is ok. You could be up against a set or AA/KK, or just as reasonably...

I agree - reraise all-in is what I did, which upon further review, I don't like against an unsuckful player on a paired board.

Re: Good spot to Semi Bluff ??
2 things have me worried:
He min-raised pre-flop - that's more likely to put AK in his possible holdings, especially after the weakish leads. If he has that, your Q outs are no good.

Re: 3/6: KQ flops TP, turns two pair
Do you still consider it defending if there's two limpers prior to the raiser?
Here, you're not only OOP of the raise, but potentially 2 others as well.

Re: AK party NL $100 6max
If you call pre-flop, you can't fold this flop.
Given that, which is more likely to get the stacks in - call now and push when he slows down, or just push now?
I probably call then push the...
