I'd bet out in hand three rather than check raise. The rest seems fine to me.

Edmond -

Why do you feel these particular hands are leaks? I'd like to know because a lot of us, including myself, would play these hands very similarly. But that doesn't necessarily mean that we are playing them correctly. Just curious as to your thoughts.

Hand 1:
Standard.

Hand 2:
You cannot have done more to give him bad odds to chase.
He wins so little on the river bet, this is simply a moneymaker for you.

Hand 3:
Like the second hand but nobody was chasing.

You may well have the leaks you describe but these hands do not illustrate them.

Tar,

Intuitively, I thought my plays were ok, and but I just don't think I have enough of a frame of reference to know whether they're standard or not. FWIW, I'd have the same queries if I won them or lost them. I'm a relatively newbie 6-handed, and I'm not quite sure what merits a "brick" or a draw heavy board with fewer players.

In the first, for example, how often am I beat here (67s, 87s, A7s, TT, etc.) 6-handed at PP $200NL? How often is villain KQs or something I can beat? How about higher levels? At the turn I said "Monster" but I don't want to fall prey to seeing monsters that aren't there. I'm finding my instincts to be correct more often than I'm actually listening to them, so I figured I'd ask. It's not a huge leak, but it would definitely add to my BB/100.

In the second, regardless of the outcome, villain didn't have much left. Should I have just put him all in then or does that shove blow off his action?

As for the last, I think my c/r was bad. I usually lead out with the nuts, and in this case, where I don't fear more hearts necessarily, I think I miss a chance to let someone else try to blow me off the hand.

Bottom line, I'd like to think my line is good, but my frame of reference 6-handed is scanty. Thanks for any feedback.

Edmond

hand 2 - I would consider overbetting the pot on the turn.
