In the new spirit of constructive criticism:

Dealt to Skooma [ Ac, Ah ]
ivey2000 folds.
fhadad calls (15)
Skooma calls (15)

Awful. UTG, maybe. Behind a limper?

Are you here in order to have to call off more chips on the turn or something? What are you doing?

Okay, so you got your big stack:

Seat 2: Skooma (2880)
Dealt to Skooma [ Td, Qh ]
ivey2000 calls (30)
Skooma raises (120) to 120

And you proceed to do this. Do you know what you're going to do when you get there?

ivey2000 calls (90)
** Dealing Flop ** : [ Kh, Qs, 3d ]
ivey2000 bets (150)
Skooma calls (150)

Apparently not. What do you now put him on?

** Dealing Turn ** : [ Jh ]
ivey2000 checks.
Skooma checks.
** Dealing River ** : [ Kd ]
ivey2000 checks.
Skooma checks.

Okay, so he was bluffing, which is 100% obvious by the river. There are two reasons for not betting it: you're terrified, and your kicker is a split. You brought the second one on yourself, but at least it justifies the check somewhat. If you were just scared, it doesn't.

I haven't been keeping track of the players to date and I don't remember playing with this guy, but if you had no read on him this is worse than not limping behind with AA PF, in other words, godawful. Are you counting on him remembering the first hand? Because he's still calling.

Dealt to Skooma [ 3d, Kd ]
Skooma raises (150) to 150

Pop quiz: if you get called, the flop is A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and you get bet into, you...

Dealt to Skooma [ Qd, As ]

Having thoroughly LAGged up your image and obtained a giant stack, you now don't even push, much less raise, here. Jebus.

** Dealing Flop ** : [ Ah, 2d, 2s ]

Skooma calls (150)
** Dealing Turn ** : [ Kd ]

The check/call's OK, but then you bet the turn when your kicker is counterfeited? At least *pretend* you want to let him bluff some more.

Dealt to Skooma [ 3s, Ad ]
Skooma raises (300) to 300

This is a great way to let the short stack back in when he pushes and you're getting 3:1 to call him. Otherwise, I don't know what the purpose of this raise with these blinds is.

Dealt to Skooma [ 3h, 8h ]
fhadad calls (50)
Skooma checks.
** Dealing Flop ** : [ 7h, 2d, 2h ]

Skooma

bets this flop and it is not remotely close.

Dealt to Skooma [ Ah, Js ]
fhadad raises (300) to 300
Skooma folds.

Again, I haven't been keeping track of the players, but if you want to bully and think he is the least bit unwilling to call, now is the time.

You raise A3o but then fold this with higher blinds???

I think this is close but can be a push. My gut says fold solely because at this point, your table image sucks.

Given that he is pushing UTG, you don't even really want to bust him all that much, and how bad doubling him up is, I do not like this call. 1.5:1 may just barely be too good to fold. But I think I still do, although it's close.

Push your better than average hand that isn't getting called by anything under TT, not even remotely close

A much higher percentage of the time than you win this pot, you lose it to kings.

...the rest of it seems fine, I guess.
