1/ I just can't see how that can be a HUGE leak. He could well be pushing very tight there.

Preface: I suck @ poker

I actually think this is/could be a pretty big leak. Yes, he COULD be pushing very tight there, but we don't know that. You got a huge stack which can absorb a blow very easily, also there is a very good chance he is pushing at least somewhat wide with 3 BBs and this is an easy call at any stakes.

Grunch. (Or whatever it is when you answer without looking at the earlier responses).
1) With his raise, the pot is 1520 and you have to enter 720 to call. Getting better 2-1 I think you have to call with J8s. I don't have the software in front of me but regardless of his push-range, I think this is a call.

2) This is tough. Like you said it's all a question of how you interpret the 3x raise (ie NOT a push). Therefore it's entirely read-dependent. My readless (except 20/20)interpretation is that he has a solid but not great hand and wants to avoid a confretation with the othe big stack. Given that, I push.

3) Villian wont put you on an ace or a two and he'll know that you dont think he has an ace or a two so ...... are you representing a 6? A pocket pair? A K? I just check/fold and am happy to have seen all 5 cards.

4) I play the same.
