All I hit was the backdoor nut flush and 2 overcards, which was a silly thing to bet with, except that HU if he didn't hit the flop and I bet he would likely fold. I had 6 outs to top pair or better, which is lousy heads up, even though AQ MIGHT hold up unimproved, but unlikely. Especially when he bet on the river, which is where I probably should have folded with NOTHING instead of trying to “keep him honest”. Calling to keep people honest in low stakes is a mistake I think, because generally if they actually have nothing they will just check. Rarely do they bet with nothing on the river.
I think the flop/turn are okay, but the river is where I should have folded. Any deuce 9 or T beat me, as well as ANY pocket pair. My only strength was a set of Ts and AQ kicker.

Ugly hand, the preflop betting situation was out of control, with 2 other people reraising/capping and with a caller or two. On the flop I did well, a huge overpair on a board with 2 to a wheel/4-8 and 2 to a flush. I tried to play it very aggressively but it had already been raised before me, so I reraised. I'm not sure if I should have stayed in despite all this action. It seems like in other situations where I've seen this much betting and raising on the flop there have been sets lurking around, but again I've been told not to worry about sets because they are pretty much monsters under the bed.
The ace on the turn is a scare card, putting an overpair to my hand if someone was chasing that wheel draw, not to mention they could have 2 pair. It wasn't a diamond though which would have been worse. That's when I decided check/calling was the best route for the rest of the hand, although there was a better on the turn there who had previously only been calling. That may have been a sign that he hit his ace, but I still called on the river to make him show it to me. It seems like the only hands that were going to showdown here are 2 pairs, sets, aces, and MAYBE the 4-8 straight. The board's blankness suggests that anyone who made it through all that betting/raising probably held on to something nice, a lot nicer than what I had in my hand unfortunately.

Called a raise preflop after betting out already, doesn't seem that bad. AJ is typically a pretty strong hand IME, but it meant that I could be dealing with some pocket pairs or another ace with a good kicker. I MISSED the flop, except for 1 overcard and a backdoor straight, neither of which were good enough reasons for me to continue against a preflop bettor, who could possibly have queens or kings or even aces to my draws. I think it hurt, but it was folding situation when the preflop bettor continued to bet.

A good hand to cap PF with 3 people cold calling the raise/re-raise. Unfortunately I miss the flop, but with 2 overcards I'm still in decent shape I think, I have 6 outs to top-pair or better (backdoor 2nd nut flush, backdoor nut straight). I bet again on the flop, playing this draw aggressively (or at least I hope, not blindly betting the flop again). I'm not sure if that was a good line. But after missing the turn check/folding to the river. That seems like an okay line.

I had a read on this guy that he was ridiculously loose and aggressive, basically throwing his money into pots he lost. Still I'm not sure if that justifies calling on the river where he could have trips or a king. I suspect he didn't have a king because he was betting before that, but he definitely could have had trips or another pocket pair. I think this was a risky line, but with the read it may have been okay.

Hit a set of aces, bet out everywhere I could on a two suit board with little straight possibility. The turn was safe so I kept betting, especially since heads up I had a TON of equity against a flush anyway.

Top pair and a backdoor straight, but VERY prone to being draw out, very marginal at best, especially with 4 opponents in the pot. Fold.

Good raise PF. I missed the flop completely, 2 to a flush (even though I had the nuts there), and 2 to a wheel (and I had the ace) so 6 outs to top pair, maybe 3 outs to the backdoors. Heads up I may have been okay but he came out raising on the flop, suggesting to me overpair/good flush draw (where I only had 1 card) or maybe a set. When I missed my backdoors AND my pairs on the turn I just check/folded. I think this was an okay line, except maybe calling a raise like that on the flop.

Hit the nut straight draw and the nut flush backdoor, as well as an overcard. I have 3 outs to top pair, 4 outs to the straight (including the Td) and another 9 to the flush. I probably could have raised on the flop. Easy hand after the turn, bet and raise every chance I get. I think this is a good example of how tight play makes poker easier. I think this is the perfect line for this hand.

Top pair best kicker with only one overcard to beat it. No flush draw, and hardly a straight draw, I think this was an easy raise on the flop, when the turn paired the 3 it was certainly a scare card. However, the bettor was already betting earlier and I doubt he opened on the flop with bottom pair. It seems like if anything he may have hit a 2 pair or a pair and a flush draw. With 14SBs in the pot on the turn I wanted to see the 3, and it got better when the river was blank.
Is my line flawed? I'm not sure what I should have been looking at? He was playing tough but I had the most solid looking hand based on his betting patterns and ignoring monsters under the bed (quads/boat).

Fine raise up front, but probably should have check/folded when I missed the flop and an ace dropped. I think TT is not a leak but certainly a week spot in my play. It's feels too strong to toss if I don't hit a set, but too weak to keep because it just has so many overcards to it. Advice? I'll probably do some reading about it.

All I hit was 2 overcards and the backdoor flush. With a bet/raise on the turn I think I was done, drawing at 6 outs to a pair that might have had pocket overpairs to it. Furthermore the bet on the flop may have been iffy, I think I would prefer to have seen the turn for free, especially since free card plays almost never work from early position.

Raise PF, I face a re-raise suggesting a big pair, but I cap the betting. Good line I think. I miss the flop, and see what the PF bettor does, I call him (I beat most of his range of TT+, especially if he only has face cards and not a pair), and get a nut flush draw on the turn with still no face cards on the board. I take control and bet out, putting my own odds at 9.5 to 1 which is DEFINITELY good enough for a nut flush draw. The 8 on the river gave it to me and I bet out again. I think these were all good lines.
Looking at the flop check/call some more. If I put his range on TT+, AK and AQ, I'm pretty much drawing to 3 outs against AK, and tying (except for the flush) against AQ. I'm drawing to 6 outs against TT, JJ, 3 outs against QQ, KK, and drawing almost dead to AA. I'm not good enough yet with the combinatorics to figure out definitively if I had decent equity or not, but I think a check/call was okay, especially since the pot was already 9 BBs at that point, giving me 18 to 1 odds.

Only a few hands later almost the exact same situation except this time I had to pay another SB to see the flop after I already called. Seems like an easy fold. I'll tell you though, it sucked seeing an 8 come on the river and someone showdown with ace-high...

Ugly hand, the preflop betting situation was out of control, with 2 other people reraising/capping and with a caller or two. On the flop I did well, a huge overpair on a board with 2 to a wheel/4-8 and 2 to a flush. I tried to play it very aggressively but it had already been raised before me, so I reraised. I'm not sure if I should have stayed in despite all this action. It seems like in other situations where I've seen this much betting and raising on the flop there have been sets lurking around, but again I've been told not to worry about sets because they are pretty much monsters under the bed.
The ace on the turn is a scare card, putting an overpair to my hand if someone was chasing that wheel draw, not to mention they could have 2 pair. It wasn't a diamond though which would have been worse. That's when I decided check/calling was the best route for the rest of the hand, although there was a better on the turn there who had previously only been calling. That may have been a sign that he hit his ace, but I still called on the river to make him show it to me. It seems like the only hands that were going to showdown here are 2 pairs, sets, aces, and MAYBE the 4-8 straight. The board's blankness suggests that anyone who made it through all that betting/raising probably held on to something nice, a lot nicer than what I had in my hand unfortunately.

Called a raise preflop after betting out already, doesn't seem that bad. AJ is typically a pretty strong hand IME, but it meant that I could be dealing with some pocket pairs or another ace with a good kicker. I MISSED the flop, except for 1 overcard and a backdoor straight, neither of which were good enough reasons for me to continue against a preflop bettor, who could possibly have queens or kings or even aces to my draws. I think it hurt, but it was folding situation when the preflop bettor continued to bet.

A good hand to cap PF with 3 people cold calling the raise/re-raise. Unfortunately I miss the flop, but with 2 overcards I'm still in decent shape I think, I have 6 outs to top-pair or better (backdoor 2nd nut flush, backdoor nut straight). I bet again on the flop, playing this draw aggressively (or at least I hope, not blindly betting the flop again). I'm not sure if that was a good line. But after missing the turn check/folding to the river. That seems like an okay line.

I had a read on this guy that he was ridiculously loose and aggressive, basically throwing his money into pots he lost. Still I'm not sure if that justifies calling on the river where he could have trips or a king. I suspect he didn't have a king because he was betting before that, but he definitely could have had trips or another pocket pair. I think this was a risky line, but with the read it may have been okay.

Hit a set of aces, bet out everywhere I could on a two suit board with little straight possibility. The turn was safe so I kept betting, especially since heads up I had a TON of equity against a flush anyway.

Good raise PF. I missed the flop completely, 2 to a flush (even though I had the nuts there), and 2 to a wheel (and I had the ace) so 6 outs to top pair, maybe 3 outs to the backdoors. Heads up I may have been okay but he came out raising on the flop, suggesting to me overpair/good flush draw (where I only had 1 card) or maybe a set. When I missed my backdoors AND my pairs on the turn I just check/folded. I think this was an okay line, except maybe calling a raise like that on the flop.

Hit the nut straight draw and the nut flush backdoor, as well as an overcard. I have 3 outs to top pair, 4 outs to the straight (including the Td) and another 9 to the flush. I probably could have raised on the flop. Easy hand after the turn, bet and raise every chance I get. I think this is a good example of how tight play makes poker easier. I think this is the perfect line for this hand.

Top pair best kicker with only one overcard to beat it. No flush draw, and hardly a straight draw, I think this was an easy raise on the flop, when the turn paired the 3 it was certainly a scare card. However, the bettor was already betting earlier and I doubt he opened on the flop with bottom pair. It seems like if anything he may have hit a 2 pair or a pair and a flush draw. With 14SBs in the pot on the turn I wanted to see the 3, and it got better when the river was blank.
Is my line flawed? I'm not sure what I should have been looking at? He was playing tough but I had the most solid looking hand based on his betting patterns and ignoring monsters under the bed (quads/boat).

Fine raise up front, but probably should have check/folded when I missed the flop and an ace dropped. I think TT is not a leak but certainly a week spot in my play. It's feels too strong to toss if I don't hit a set, but too weak to keep because it just has so many overcards to it. Advice? I'll probably do some reading about it.

All I hit was 2 overcards and the backdoor flush. With a bet/raise on the turn I think I was done, drawing at 6 outs to a pair that might have had pocket overpairs to it. Furthermore the bet on the flop may have been iffy, I think I would prefer to have seen the turn for free, especially since free card plays almost never work from early position.

Raise PF, I face a re-raise suggesting a big pair, but I cap the betting. Good line I think. I miss the flop, and see what the PF bettor does, I call him (I beat most of his range of TT+, especially if he only has face cards and not a pair), and get a nut flush draw on the turn with still no face cards on the board. I take control and bet out, putting my own odds at 9.5 to 1 which is DEFINITELY good enough for a nut flush draw. The 8 on the river gave it to me and I bet out again. I think these were all good lines.
Looking at the flop check/call some more. If I put his range on TT+, AK and AQ, I'm pretty much drawing to 3 outs against AK, and tying (except for the flush) against AQ. I'm drawing to 6 outs against TT, JJ, 3 outs against QQ, KK, and drawing almost dead to AA. I'm not good enough yet with the combinatorics to figure out definitively if I had decent equity or not, but I think a check/call was okay, especially since the pot was already 9 BBs at that point, giving me 18 to 1 odds.

Only a few hands later almost the exact same situation except this time I had to pay another SB to see the flop after I already called. Seems like an easy fold. I'll tell you though, it sucked seeing an 8 come on the river and someone showdown with ace-high...
