This first hand I just was very very unsure of.
I figure'd the first guy to have a minor overpair or played a crap hand hitting top pair or something and putting me on a bluff.
The 2nd guy is the one that kind of worried me. With the mini raise preflop and then just cold calling my re-raise, plus raising the all in on the flop....
Is this an easy fold?

I know normally KK should be raised or re-raised preflop, but with this pot going to be heads up, is my line fine?

This table got short quick and then ended up heads up for this hand.
Is it really possible to put the villian on AK for the turned straight, or heads up is this just the type of hand you lose if he happens to have the straight?

Thanks for any advice and suggestions. I am just having a difficult time adjusting to the aggression of the 6-max games and the quicker pace. I have dropped the number of tables I normally play to make things easier and thus far I am still winning at a decent rate, so I don't feel like a complete fish at the moment.
Just wasn't sure how to play these 3 hands.
