what is best to do on turn when first to act here, bet like i did, or better to check and see what the other 2 do? if we check maeneken will most likely bet regardles of what he has so i think bet is best way to go for info
what do we do here on turn after raise and reraise? call/raise/fold? is there a chance we can still be ahead or are we most likely beat by any of the other 2? What can the other 2 players have here? if we are beat, do we still want to check/call it because of potsize or hope for an Ace to come for the boat?

through the hand, do you think we are ahead? flop/turn/river? if we are ahead before river, should we then lead out also on turn for value instead of c/r when A hits, when he reraises me is call best or are we most likely still ahead? on river: did he have a flush draw or do we bet out thinking his has not improved on river, or do we check/call here thinking he may have flushed us?
Or just come with your own ideas on these 2 hands, how to play them. i am usually aggressive when playing shorthanded fixed limit like this, but in these 2 hands i doubt any of the other players have picked up on that and because of that play back at me.
i have some other hands to post later, to check my line in them, but thought it was better to start off with just 2 hands

if ever there were a flop to favor the blinds 477 would be it. I would be wary of handphd. I think your aces are busted.
I have found that in FL SH, people play any ace and any soooots and will call with any draw if they hold the above. But I think you have to bet your set. If he raises, he prolly hit. But if you don't bet it, he will regardless of what he has.

I'm more of a NL player and these hands show why...It is so hard to figure out where you stand in this game with single bet bets.. I think your AA are busted and your set is good. I would bet out the set and call araise....I'd muck the AA to any more then 1 bet.

no more FL sharks out there?
i will hold out for a few more days to see if we get more opinions on these hands and then post what happened and maybe get more discussion

hankphd Shows ( 6d , 5d ) for 8 high straight
maeneken Shows ( Kd , 8s ) for 2 Pair
As i thought, maeneken didnt have me beat but hankphd did. obviously i was no big fan of that flop.. but still felt i had to bet for info on flop and take it from there. No one raising on flop, i am still concerned that hank all along planning for a c/r on turn.
Turn comes, hank check again.. i feel i have to bet for info once again.. i get reraised And reraised and now it is obvious that at least hank has me beat, so i fold, if hank had only called the raise i would have called turn and c/c river.
Reason for that is that maeneken was way to wild to give that much respect and hank then wouldnt have shown enough strength to scare me off my hand.

when i saw him just calling my river bet i liked it a lot.. i by then was sure he Did have that big ace i put him on through the hand, so when cards flipped over i was well surprised to see i had been behind all along
flop he just calls my bet to disguise his set, turn i try to be sneaky by checkraising him when A comes, obv he also put me on an A and we cap it, river scares him more than me, but of course not enough to make him fold, as the hand was played, only hand to have likely flushed there was a big suited Ace
ok i just added the rest of the action in the hands and also some comments on them
agree/disagree with anything?
as always, just click the spoiler..

I haven`t looked at the new info, just the op. Don`t really play short-handed FL so it`s with trepidation I make my comments.
Hand No.1
I`m folding. It seems likely you`re up against either a set or a straight, maybe both. Either way I can`t see the aces still being good.
Hand No.2
Whilst I would probably have bet out, you haven`t lost any bets because of the check-raise and you have driven another player out of the pot.
On the river I`m probably going to check-call. I wouldn`t like the flush card and it`s possible Melco is holding Ad-xd which would explain the betting on the turn. I`m pretty sure you were ahead until then.
DangerMouse
Ok read the second part now.
Hand No.2 is interesting.
Rather badly played by NFlanders imo, if he leads out on the flop I suspect he`d get an extra bet from you. I wouldn`t object to a smoothcall after you`d raised but I really don`t like the check-call line. I guess he was nervous about the flush/straight draw and/or perhaps thought it was unlikely anyone had hit the flop.
I did consider the over set but the betting seemed to go against that.
