Wow good for you dude - learning another language is something I'd love to do but I've accepted I will probably never again have time for. I am sure I could get fluent at Spanish pretty quickly if I wanted because I took it for 5 years in school. Not that I was ever fluent, but I've got the foundation so if I wanted to learn it would mostly be relearning some conjugations, a lot more verbs, and a ton of vocabulary.
Hand #1 K8hh: I am mostly in this spot thinking about what range we get to the river with, and I think we are probably way too high up in it to consider folding. But that being said we don't beat anything in the value range he's repping, so... There's that. If we want to exploitively fold strong hands I think I would prob still hold onto this one but I don't hate a fold exactly.
Hand #2 88 Overbet: Feels like we only rep 66 since we'd typically bet our pure air like 76s and 86s on the flop? But I could be off and don't know your range (or perceived range) here.
Hand #3 Bluff Shove Top Pair: So it's kind of tricky when we block QQ but also block KK and AK. I also have NO clue how often we get AA to fold (if ever) so that's a pretty big factor in this decision. I understand why you'd target that, but it feels like we are never getting villain to ONLY call with the 4 combos of sets he can have, so we are probably getting called by AA imo.
All in all I don't love it, but I have zero experience in the games you're playing so it's kind of hard to comment.

Yeah trying to shift people off overpairs doesn't work well at zoom particularly once they have called a hefty turn bet and the board doesn't change much. The lack of info on opponents means players are calling down against general ranges for the pool plus what little they have on you.
Now we have showdown value and can beat 44 55 I'm not even sure I want to bluff the river here. If he has a small over pair 44-55-77-88 and puts you on a whiffed big Ax he might not bet the river anyway figuring you aren't calling with worse.
If I did decide to bluff it's player dependant and aimed at guys with a wtsd% of less than 28
And I'd bet my normal value size of around 75bb to make it look less bluffy and save myself 70ishbb if I get called.
I'm not sure what calls 75 that would fold to 150.
I have a fairly recent 28K hand sample for 10nl Zoom winning at a not very impressive 2.2bb/100 and 17k of hands at 5nl zoom winning at 8.5bb/100
You have to factor in some unusual holdings because the card match feature leads to people playing all sorts of wierd stuff in the wrong spots.
With us having 50bb invested and calling off our last 50bb to win 200bb I'm getting it in here. His flop lead looks like a draw trying to set a cheap price and his stats are starting to look loose and aggressive. He could have monster draws or be getting stupid with Qx

What kind of sample size would we need to turn this into a fold pre?
8
Yeah it's quite a funny hand, you have so many outs you looked priced in the whole way, clearly so on the turn card.
Personally id probably fold on the flop simply on the basis that my outs aren't to the nuts and ive only got 13bb invested and both want to play for stacks. We could be up against a set and a better flush draw.
Give me the nut flush draw and i'm in for the ride.
Its a shame UTG bet the flop it caused you problems. So im interested to know what they were willing to get it in with here.
Yeah 2.56 over 104 isn't definitive at all.
Id fold to 1% in 150
2% in 200
So 2.56 I want to see 250-300 hands I suppose.
Once he bets the turn its starting to look like the best we can do is chop. They dont usually fire the turn wiith worse unless aggro and of course his 3bet% suggests he isnt.
even given the positions?
When 3bet rates are this small i'd suggest position is of less important. Because his range is strong he's going to 3bet no matter what position you are opening from.
It also depends on how active you happen to have been as to how light he 3bets.
I simply can't consider folding AK preflop off that 104 sample size, he could easily be a 4%-5% 3bettor who might not have had any cards in the right spots.
I had a similar hand the other day where I was min raised. I'll stick with what I posted above before folding pre.
So any update as to how you are getting on? Tables or otherwise!
#3 Not sure if this is smart or horribad, villain is a fairly decent reg. im 4betting QQ/KK/AA v him. xb is fairly standard as villain isnt calling with worse. J is kinda a shitty turn but villain will have AK/KK/AA/QQ/99+ plus some random floats id imagine. river seems like a cool spot to bluff trying to make AA/KK fold, the line is also consistent with how i would play QQ or JJ if i 4bet pre thoughts?

If you take me as a typical 10nl opponent I never have aces here. Preflop I just keep raising AA no matter how deep. Id probably also 5bet KK this deep as well depending on what I see in your stats. I would though be calling your 4 bet with QQ JJ TT 99 AK AQs. If I was in your shoes Id be worried about running into JJ here. But you are folding out all my holdings other than JJ QQ. I would fold KK to the shove. I agree you probably aren't good going to showdown and have to do something.
WA/WB check back with JJ?? Your aggression must be pretty high up

If we are targeting 9x or ace high, I think I go a bit smaller.
