i insta call hand 1. Hand 2 I think you are losing to J 10 because people love to play j 10. At that point it's just math on whether you call or not...he probably doesn't have the J 10 often enough here to make it a bad call in hand 2. Hand 3, I think you are being bluffed by the naked ace, I insta-call here, and even if i'm behind (which I don't think I am) i have outs to fill up. So basically, i'm not folding the set in any of these hands.

[jkkkk]

Unless i have a read that suggests villain is stupid enough to play his made hands like this I'm calling every time.
