I still dont see the raise in hand 3, you arent ahead of much, and anything you are ahead, he isnt going to fold anyway. You could try the turn raise for a free showdown play I guess.

That was the plan, and maybe get value depending on villian's 3bettting standards. I didn't notice he was OOP though, so I like the call-down a lot more in that case.

Can't believe you are folding hand 1 ? You are vs a guy very agrro postflop 1.60ish with VPIP of 45% is quite aggro. He posted in CO, he could have any 2. The pot is big enough to protect your hand by raising. He is offering you a powerful play. You raise and protect your hand and you can evaluate on the turn if someone else called. But I think he played the hand perfectly... Donk doesn't man TP or mid pair, he could be on a str8 draw or flush draw there is no way it's a fold when he bets into you... I raise for protection here...

First off, Hand 1...I can go either/or. Fold or continue. As is, I like it (no way he has top pair there. J maaaybe, and u should probably be worried about. Im more inclined to think bottom pair or the draw). So if u are going to play, raise it...bet turn, check river if u dont improve. I dont think folding is bad on the flop,and may even be the better option w/ others to act behind u. Oui, depends.

Hand 2...looks good.
Hand 3...Im not digging it.

folding on the flop on hand 1 is a no brainer,ok he is real aggro,but you have only 2 outs and flop is some what co-ordinated, plus players behind you,
Folding is really really basic stuff,

Hand 1: Fold the flop. If you are behind (wich is most of the time) you are drawing to two outs, one of which is tainted. When you are ahead (rarely) you will frequently be outdrawn.

Hand 2: FIne.

Hand 3: I fold the flop, but if for some reason I didn't I would fold the turn for sure.

Yeah I should have folded, his donk bet just suggested weakness to me, but I should probably just pick a better spot.

Hand 2: He showed A6o, my question was more if I should 3-bet the flop hoping for a free card, but I guess that's probably not a good idea against a looseish-aggressive opponent.

Hand 3: I'm still not sure what to do here, but folding the turn is probably in order. He had AQo FWIW.

Thanks a lot for all the good responses.
