Finding folds
 

Lately I have been making like Daniel Negreanu on HSP (at least the season 2 version) and paying off everyone and everything. Can I find some folds here? If yes, what should be running through my head while I'm thinking? Is it a matter of running through hands that beat me and the likelihood of each hand? When I put the hand back together in my head, I can always think of a whole bunch that beat me and a bunch that don't, so I call.

Hand #1, villain is 66/4/1.4

Re: Finding folds
 

hand 1: i push his turn min-re-raise.
hand 2: reads on BB? I pot turn.. and most likely always push without reads.
hand 3: i like to raise this up on co, but as played, i'll bet 3/4 on flop, check turn if called, and i'll call the raise on river. its possible SB could have hit it hard and tried to check raise each street.... really tough spot here...but i think i'd cross my fingers and call here.

Re: Finding folds
 

Hand 1: you Could push for the rest. Youre definitely not going to be able to fold the river.
Hand 2: I like how you played it. You could bet again on the turn, but as played with his huge river bet, you fold because youre clearly beat.
Hand 3: I would raise preflop. As played, call his river raise and expect to see a king most often.

Re: Finding folds
 

hand 1: get it all in somewhere, turn is best but as played check raising the river is not horrible
hand 2: this overbet weirds me out as does everything about this hand
hand 3: i fold there are 4 people in an unraised point, my feeling is at best you are splitting here. You should raise this pf btw.
