1) preflop cap... Could be AA, KK, AK...or another QQ ♦
I think you are more often behind than ahead with A on the river, so I would recommend check.

2) MP2 stayed for a reason... now what could that reason be... maybe A with bad kicker? Busted straightdraw? I really don't know what I would do.
Bet/call I think.

3) Slowplay gone wrong ♦

1) Giving that he has a sane capping range your behind almost everything he might have so a check is by far the best play

2) I would defenetly bet this for value the only thing he has done so far is calling so there is no reason to think that your beat. A lot of your winnings in micro stake comes from thin value bets.

3) Way to get paid ♦ I love these players

1) I like the way you played it. The flopraise to get a calldown by Ax and the check beind on the river where the only hand you beat and calls a bet is JJ.

2) Easy valuebet and maybe even a call against a raise against aggressive/tricky people. (Pacer that's more the low stackes (3/6+) you mean with the thin valuebets. At the micros they pay you out even with worse hands or if you hold monsters but its always a good thing to start early with thin bets. ^^)

3) Nh! Both of you but not for the same reasons. ♦

I don't understand this. Can you explain? I raised flop (I think) because I thought I'm not far enough ahead to do call flop/raise turn. Do we mean the same thing?

This is the 2nd reason.

With a flopraise I may induce AK to calldown and maybe AQ which would fold to a turnraise.
And the 2nd is that if he has KK or AA he will 3-bet our turnraise which is another thing I don't want to hve.
