As in I've managed to remove all of it...

+ Show Spoiler +

Poker is swingy! Especially when I don't play that many hands per month. Was hoping to reach $1k by the end of this month/start of next month but instead got a bit demolished. I don't think that I am playing too badly for the most part, but maybe 1/3 of my big losing hands have been questionable... so it's not great really.

Set over set ruins all the fun :D

So basically I'd like to see what others think of some of these spots:

HAND 1
+ Show Spoiler +

Not really a great value board, can I bet the river? Not sure if villain will call it off with anything that I beat other than JJ.

HAND 2
+ Show Spoiler +

How much to bet on the river?

HAND 3
+ Show Spoiler +

Guy's so bad but I'm really not sure where I'm at.

gl everyone, hope things pick up from here!

cheers

Hand 1: bet $3-$3.25 on flop, bet turn and c/f river. Shoving river will be value-owning yourself in this situation. He won't turn hands like 88 into bluffs.

Hand 2: shöööve

Hand 3: What hands calls flop and turn and tries to bluff river with a minraise on that board? not a single hand. No worse hand would do it for value.
