Re: live $6/12 - 2nd nuts - when to stop raising
I have never seen a 6-bet river where the 2nd nuts is winner. That said, it's nearly impossible to believe villain has KK here.

Re: A quick checkup.
What is my read on me (i.e. my image)?
If it's at least somewhat tight, I raise 1-3. In #4, it depends on what kind of passivity we can expect from UTG postflop. He likely has a better hand than...

Assuming it's serious...has your kid asked you for a $1,000 bankroll? Is this something he wants, or you want? Does he like to play HU SNGs?

Apparently, I am Mr. Weak-Tight.
I fold PF. Play flop same way. Check turn planning to fold if action is check-bet-raise or check-check-bet.
