Re: Nut flush draw + pair
Yes, definitely put a good sized bet out, about $15 sounds good. You are flipping coins against AQ (and not even that bad against AK), but villain could easily call with QxQs, TxTs, etc here, as well...

Re: 100NL KK vs flop c/3-bet w/ shorty all-in
I think this is a pretty obvious isolation move from SB. He probably has a decent but not super strong hand. If he had a really good hand he would smooth call hoping to bring you along for the ride....

Re: AK makes boat against LAGtard
Is this some sort of a joke? If he's a LAG he will happily overplay an 8, overpair to the eight, and even occasionally from a player like him a 3-barrel bluff. This is a very easy river raise.

Re: Blind defense w/ QJo

That doesnt make sense, he obviously doesn't know you have QJ, when you face him with a turn check/raise there is no way he is calling it with AJ (no diamond). He will put you on a K, 8,...

Re: 2x popped
I'm going to recommend an opposite line for both hands. In hand 1 you can make an easy fold. How often does a loose and passive player bluff you on the river? Is it 1% of the time? So you have to be...

Re: good fold with 99 (pocket pairs are hard)
Go ahead and check/fold the turn, unless you have a read that villain peels extra loose. The ace didn't scare him, the only draw came in, and you can't even beat middle pair. With a hand like QQ or...

Re: Cautious
I hope this isn't a Monster table. Even without that extra drop I think opening Q8o is too loose. Part of the equity you get raising from the button is stealing the blinds, but that isn't going to...

Re: Blind defense w/ QJo
I prefer a flop check/raise to the turn check/raise, but I can see where you are going with things. The problem with this turn card is there are lots of holdings he probably isn't folding: any decent...

Re: river play?
The river is close between bet/fold and check/fold given that villain seems reasonable (if loose). There aren't really any hands in his bluffing range since AQ/AJ likely check behind here to beat a...
