In the first 22 hand, just keep in mind how its harder to get paid off with sets OOP so long term that may be a -EV play unless you think you can take away some pots post flop when you don't hit your set, which will be 8/9 of the time.

In the TT hand, when he raises you like that it's pretty clear he has QQ or KK, very rarely AKss but that's really rare. You're committing about 20% of your stack preflop and if you don't hit your set you're going to be done with the hand a lot of times. If the flop comes 842 rainbow and he continues to bet strong do you lay this down? It's a really tough preflop spot but I don't like calling there.

Love betting out with 22 and hitting the set in that other hand because you trap so many hands just like you did who never think a set will bet out. He got lucky on you, oh well.

Hand 1: I don't know, I think it's +EV to setmine OOP because villains are usually bad at 25nl, even the regs, so they'll go deeper with marginal hands than they should. And yeah, I definitely like the b3b here, as it gets the most money from an overpair. This is exactly why set mining works.

Hand 2: Yeah, this is basically a set mining situation, and you're not getting the odds (you need like 10 to one), so you're best off folding. Even getting 8 to 1 is not enough because of set over set situations.

Hand 3: You're going to be playing your hand from the worst position post-flop, so definitely raise more. I guess you must have clicked the bet pot button, you should always add a BB on top of that from the blinds. Make it $1.25 here.

Bet closer to the pot on the flop, there are a lot of draws out. $2.9 pot or so, so bet $2.50

Tough turn, I think if you're not gonna fold, then you might as well bet $4 to keep him in the hand with lower Aces. That way he has to call the river $3.

Hand 4: well played, but unfortunate.

Hand 5: I suppose your play was ok given the stats.

PS, can you post the hands to pokerhand.org next time, or at least make them a lighter color? Blue is very hard to read on black.
