This is a good idea if:
It doesn't slow the game down too much.
You can't handle variance.
If someone in the hand goes broke, the game would break.

Re: $200nl - Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh
The thing about minraises at this level is people only usually do it when they love their hand. Just reraise the flop, he'll payoff almost every time, especially given the number of scare cards that...

Raise the flop to $35.
Turn is an obvious raise. Go for $110 as played. Give them a glimmer of hope, but don't scare off the club draw.

Re: AA & Villain pushes on River
I like turn bet to try to get to showdown, and I think fold here is correct. If he was gonna wake up with a hand like 77-TT he probably raises turn.

Re: PP $200 - River play with boat
Bet. Just like everyone's already mentioned, you get value from exactly a draw by checking, and a draw's a pretty thin read here, given the smallish turn raise. I dont see a semi-bluff making it 75...

We can agree, right, that the decision is between raising and calling, right? Folding is out of hte question?
