Re: NL10 22 in BB - limpers
FWIW I only raise 77+ from blinds. I'd definitely check here, as you'll have a multiway pot with better implied odds than if you raise big here and get one or two callers.

Re: KJs vs LP mcTAG opener
Good post bozzer. Here are some things to consider though. First off, assuming you're called, even your 25% equity isn't that great, as you're going to end up in RIO territory a lot. Also, lets say...

Re: KK on small flop
Really looks like A/images/graemlins/spade.gif/K/images/graemlins/spade.gif/A/images/graemlins/spade.gifQ/images/graemlins/spade.gif... Does a set really push here?

You're not turning KJs into a bluff by 3 betting, because it's ahead of a standard TAGs CO opening range, IMO.

Re: Preflop vs Shortstacker NL25
I just fold here. AJ is just too dominated by hands he's doing this with. AQ would be the minimum I'd call here, and I wouldn't be too happy about it.

Re: VB or meh?
I'd just check pf. His range isn't that wide here since he's not raising anything besides AA really. And since he's super passive he could be calling here w/TT+. I think c/f river is best, as AZ said.
