My thought process: I checked to see the flop. No one raised and both high stacks had high VPIP in that stage of the game (above 50%). QQQ comes and all of them check. We all check after turn as well so at this point I assumed noone had Q or anything for that matter since they were usually agressive. 7 comes which gives me a pair. I checked it because I didn't want to risk. Only the last player bet which I assumed was him just trying to steal the top so I called. Do you think this was the right choice? I certainly didn't expect AA.

My thought process: Both of them callers had high stacks had high VPIP. I saw him min bet with worse hands before so I thought he was just bluffing. Jemanje was calling a lot so I didn't think of him having anything so I pushed all in. I don't think I could have folded 150 bet with top pair and decent kicker so the other 2 options were call or raise. Since I was short stack I don't know if I could just continue calling his min bets and raise would require at least 600 chips which would make me commited, or not? So should I raise, call or fold at this point?

My thought process: I get Kings, I raise. Small stack calls the raise. He had very high participation (around 80%) and I previously saw him make a call with a low pair. I was certain I was ahead with kings and I was trying to value bet, especially since there was no ace. What would you do differently? Change the size of the bets or maybe try to just check?

My thought process: Players on this table were calling everything so even if I just reraised to 400 or 350 I would get a lot of callers so I only wanted to take the blinds. I personally don't like going all in with AK since it's a very weak in all in situation so maybe just raising 300 and hoping to hit A or K would be best hopes. What would you do?
I can't find the other game in my HM2 so I will just type the basics as much as I can remember.
Hand 5
There were 5 or 6 players left. Blinds were 75/150. I had around 2100 chips.I had AdQs (don't remember the position but it was third to act or something like this. I was SB and I raise 450 and BB calls. Flop comes A83s. I check and he instantly checks behind me. Jd comes out. At this point I bet probably 1/2 of the pot and he goes all in. What should I do in this situation?
My thought process: I was raising from SB so I could have just tried to steal the blinds. This made me think that he had a weak hand. Flop comes and it was perfect for me. Top pair with decent kicker and a chance and a nut flash draw. I was afraid that if I bet I would scare him away so I checked. After he checked back I asssumed he was weak.
After he went All in I was wondering what he had iff he had AJ maybe. I thought not. I assumed he went for all in push to force me to fold so I call his all in. It turns out he had JsJh. I never expected this. I don't think I would ever win this pot. My option was to bet on the flop. With only 1 overcard, him having a JJ and Js for the flush he would not fold. But regardless of that do you think betting on the flop would be a better option. I don't think I could fold on the flop since it's possible he was bluffing, I had a good hand already and a chance at nut flush.
