Someone put me out of my misery

prolly didn't get many responses because posting multiple hands is generally frowned upon. That said, I am bored, so will offer assistance. Then someone better can come along and clarify.

Hand 1 - I usually 3 bet this pre flop, but calling isn't terrible. I don't hate calling flop and then bombing a non heart turn. Some arguements can be made for getting it all in on this flop, but I think a 3 bet only gets called by a flush. I would call and re-evaluate turn.

Hand 2 - This one is tough. BB seems to have a hand he likes as he made a full pot bet on an uber scary flop. You straight draw outs may not be good. You probably have no FE. Calling is ok, only problem is that I have a feeling BB pushes if you call and then you have to fold. Maybe weak tight, but I would fold to the UTG push.

Hand 3. I would check behind that turn all day. As played, I doubt your ahead, but your getting good odds so I prolly make a crying call.

Hand 4. I think you meant hero just sat down, but whatever. This sure looks like K10 or a slowplayed set. I'll leave this one in the "someone better come along and clarify" category. My gut says fold the turn, but thats probably debatable. If you decide to continue past the turn, get all you money in on the turn. Calling the turn leaves you with about $64 behind in a $92 pot. Make a decision for your stack on the turn.

Hand 1: Never fold a set on the flop.
For starters, you have 1/3 chance of hitting a full house by the river. Secondly, they could easily be on a draw/combo-draw. Push here every time. Calling sux cuz you have to play the river if you don't hit ur fh (which is more liekly cuz you only have 7 outs for a fh+ to hit the turn, but have 10 to hit from turn to river).

Hand 2: I would fold. If you were sure BB would call and not raise or fold, a call *might* be ok. But since you don't and only have 1/3 chance of hitting by the river I would not want to tangle here.

Hand 3:
Check behind on the turn.

Hand 4:
He either has 2 pair or a set. I have no idea which, and with that much money in there, I would lean towards a call. Not confident in that play though.

Yeah, I meant hero just sat down. Apologies for the multiple hands. Will post results later, thanks for replies.
