[Knockwurst]

$10-20 local B&M. Ten-handed.

Hand #1

LAG in MP limps, I have K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in CO-1 and I raise, TPA in CO calls, everyone else folds. Three players $75.

Flop is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

MP checks, I bet, CO folds, MP calls. Two players -- $95.

Turn is 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

MP checks, I bet, MP calls. Two players -- $135.

River is a 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

MP bets (?!?). I call. Should I be raising here? What do I do if he re-raises? I can't drop it.

Hand #2

I'm UTG with K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], I limp (which I normally never do, but I was trying to mix up my game a little), five callers, including blinds. Six players -- $60.

Flop is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I bet, Solid MP1 calls, TPA MP2 calls, everyone else folds. Three players -- $90.

Turn is 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I check(?!?) is this right? I don't like seeing the third club on the turn with two players limping along, but I do have a K high club draw. Since I have nine outs I thought I should check. Maybe in last position I would bet it if it was checked to me. Is this right?

Anyhow, other two players check behind. Three players -- $90. And I smoke a bet before seeing the river card, hoping to induce a call. This is also a questionable play.

River is 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

MP2 calls.

Hand #3

I have K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG+1 and I raise, LAG EP calls two cold and CO-1, whose play is of near maniacal proportions, calls. Three players -- $75.

Flop is Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I bet, EP calls, CO-1 raises, I re-raise, EP folds, CO-1 caps it. Two players -- $165.

Turn is J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I check(?!?). Is this a bad check. I wasn't necessarily worried about the J making two pair, but I thought he had hit a set on the flop or made some weird two pair. He checks behind. Two players -- $165.

River is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet, he calls.

In each of these hands did I give the other guy too much credit for making his hand when I had a strong holding? Thanks in advance.
