My comments are worthless except for myself as I play the micros. For that I apologize in advance.

That said:
J8o hand - reads on villain and stack sizes? He'd never limp 99 MP? Maybe 87d, QT, T9? Maybe enough aggression to bet A8d this way? Are we that sure he has KJ here?

AQ hand - strange little turn of events. Looks alright, I wonder what he showed.

TT hand - villain's line makes little sense to me, I'm totally puzzled. Spade FD? 88?

T9 hand - barring reads I think I fold here as well. Too much of a chance of a set or made straight.

55 hand - nice hand, well played.

KK hand - I think I lead this flop.

AA hand - fold unless villains agg (esp. river) is hyper.

1. Im not folding the 2nd nuts hu on a draw heavy board w/o a read on villain being insanely passive. I also prefer leading to c/r:ing. If you c/r and get called it leaves alot of vry awkward turn spots due to the pot size and there being lots of bad cards for you. If you lead and get raised you can 3bet and commit yourself, if you lead and get called the pot is much smaller and you have more room to manouver on the turn.

2. I think you can fold river even getting such a good price. Every draw has hit and KQ prolly checks. I don't hate it though. 5-1 is hard to turn down in a big pot.

3. Looks good.

4. I prefer a flop lead to protect your hand and trap callers in between you and pfr. Vry draw heavy board and mp3 isn't going to bet w/o at least an overpair so flop will check through alot. As played I like your fold. Hard to see you not being beat somewhere.

5. You can't fold here. Sucks if he has QJ.

6. Tough spot. I would prolly bet flop and go broke w/o a read on bb. If he's particulay tight c/f is ok.

hand #1 i stack off verse most villians. youll see two pairs more than you think you will. I play 100nl btw

hand 2 i think is fine. id put villian on a two hearts with one being a queen???

hand #3 is a call. only becuase mp3 likely has an over pair he doesnt want anyone to draw against given he preflop. it bet hard to put him on trips given that you have the jt and 99 doesnt raise as often. kq is possible but not probable. hes a shorty, call him.

hand # 4 is villian depandant, i dont like that jack sitting there. and i dont like to stack off with bottom trips either in a limped pot.

kk hand- pot the flop, that hand need villian stack sizez to be played correctly.

aa hand- im not sure.

lol

what can i say i go with my reads.. rather make a small mistake then a large one

fwiw I'm 12 tabling, so I'm not impatient. Hand #1 the J8 straight, that board is so fkn ugly I decided to just lay it down, even against monster draws or sets I'm not a huge favorite, and only invested a little bit in the pot, not worth getting tilted over. It was in the beginning of my nightly session so that might have helped coerce a fold. Will wait for more replies to comment on others

You'll get a lot better feedback if you post stacksizes and reads. Also, I wouldn't post so many hands at once. Maybe a couple posts one day, then a few more the next (in separate posts unless the hands are simliar). Anyway...

1. Don't fold here -- figure out how to get the money AI
2. Fold on the river
3. I like it
4. Don't know, need stack sizes and reads.
5. I like it
6. Lead the flop. Really need a read here and stack size here.
7. Barring a read on villain being super AGG a fold is fine here.
