1st one - unlucky
2nd one - i don't really like your play out of position and i certainly don't raise the turn. you played badly here imo.
3rd one - the guy is a moron and your unlucky.

Pretty standardish hands mate. Not a massive fan of hand 2 but it certainly isn't bad. Hand one going busto is fine after a re raise pre if you think he goes broke with AA/KK. Hand 3 id probably prefer to peel turn and then maybe give up. But again, 3 handed, folding Eq is huge here so its certainly not awful potting it, not quite sure what your opponent is up to though, lol.

1 - Prefer not to get involved pre flop. You've hit the flop but it's very vulnerable. The other 6 beats you, obviously QQ beats you and your flush draw is weak. These are the only hands than can realistically call you so you're putting money in hoping for a fold or a bluff from a player who raised pre then led out post. Lucky that oppo didn't have more money.

2 - Call pre fair enough but oop is risky. Oppo raises pre, leads out post then leads out and re raises all in on the turn! What were you hoping to see?? Without a very good read on the player I can't see how this one could turn out well.

3 - Good starting hand but I think I would prefer to control the pot a bit more with no made hand and only 9 outs. Once the oppo calls your check raise on the flop then I'd slam on the brakes. He's probably already ahead and you've still only got 9 outs. There's a paired board so you may be drawing dead. If he's on a draw then it's likely to be similar to your's so he's probably holding some of your outs. He may be drawing to a flush which kills 3 more of your outs. I'm not saying that your oppo played it well because he certainly didn't but the way he played should've suggested potential problems.

1) cooler, vul
2) dont think line is optimal though prolly still +EV, just high variance.
3) oppo is a mug but im not convinced you should give him the $98 more on the turn. Card is horrendous for us. I think flop play is good, turn is a c/f.
