Hands from an EX-multitabler
A little background info:
Used to play real actual thinking poker, then I sadly became a multi-table whore. Finally this June I took the advice of this forum and stopped all the crazy 10 table crap and got back to poker. Best advice ever. I hardly ever posted hands before but am trying to change that bad habit as well.
All hands are 400 NL party 6 MAX. FWIW hands 2 and 4 deserve the most attention.

Villain has been overbetting pots. Way too aggro, no one has caught a hand against him yet.
Hero ($479)
SB ($441)
BB ($318.3)
UTG ($948.39)
Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $2.
UTG calls $4, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $20</font> - an bit of an overbet against UTG limper. Does anyone have a problem with this?
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls $16.
Flop: ($46) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $80</font>, Hero calls $459 (All-In), UTG folds.
Final Pot: $585

Background - I am going to have a hard time defending this play, but here goes. This was a very fast table, villain was taking large stabs at far too many pots, and following up with hefty continuation bets.
My image is rock solid.
