Hi,

Feedback appreciated. Questions below each hand. I always
feel lost in these situations. Thanks.

**HAND 1**

BB has Js Qd (one pair, jacks).

Was calling the river correct? Or should I fold or raise?

*** HAND 2 ****

Ok, I think this was badly played

Should I have re-raised at the flop?
Given I didn't re-raise at the flop, is it a fold?
Villian plays pretty solid. I figured he had a set.

Easy fold on the turn or re-raise?

I like Hand #1.

I would 3-bet the flop in Hand #2 and go from there.

I suck with hands like #3, but I don't think your line is bad.

Hand 1 was played correctly. Hand 2 is bad. If Villian is solid then at worse you have to call down his bets. Most weak players I'm raising with the over play. It looks like you blieved he hit a flush and folded.

Last hand. I don't know. Might not raise the flop. But I think it was a good fold on the turn after the raise.

hand 1: Fine

Hand 2: 3-bet the flop, if capped call down, if the 3-bet is called then lead the turn.

Hand 3: I call this down with my outs.

Hand two is terrible. Villain will raise with top pair here, you at least need to 3 bet.
