A few hands - 6 max turbo
1. No read on villain, effective stack 20BB
75/150, hero 300 UTG+1, villain 3000~ all-in from button
What's our calling range?
2. No read on table, hero stack 25BB, villains have hero covered
100/200/25, villain 1 400 UTG, villain 2 1300 UTG+1, hero has TT on button with 5000~
Do you ever flat the 3 bet?
What's your 4 bet range? What do you fold?
3. no stats on villain, but seems like a loose passive player from 20~ hands, basically saw limp/call once an orbit., and gave up each hand to continuation bet. effective stack 35BB
25/50, villain limps UTG, hero 200 button with AQ, blinds fold, villain calls
Flop A J 9 hh, check, bet 275, villain shoves 1500~ total. Hero has black cards
Call? Fold?

well, since no on responded, i'll give you my advice (which is probably not great, but oh well).
1) since you're in EP, button most likely has a good hand. i'd think our calling range is pretty tight. QQ+, AK
2) i really don't like flatting 3bets when there's still action behind even when in position unless stacks are deep. TT is right around my 4bet range though i'd think. knowing me, i probably sigh/fold.
3) i feel like you're most likely facing a straight or flush draw although 2 pair or bottom set is possible. also, the check/shove tends to be strong most of the time. i probably call though.
Effective stacks 20BB, but how big is our stack? Will a call cripple us if we lose? If it's going to cost us most of our chips I probably want to have AK+, TT+. If we have some breathing room AQs+, AK, 99+.
I don't like a flat in this spot ever with 2 players to act - when UTG+1 makes it 7BB's it's a shove or fold. I think there would be an argument for a flat x percent of the time with KK or AA, but not with TT, as a flat there is designed only to get both players chips in the middle (not set mining), and I want my TT going heads up not 3 way.
TT+ AK+. Would probably feel gross laying down 99, so I might add that too.
Gross. When a passive player ships 30BB's after the flop he's serious, but you do have top pair good kicker. I'm not sure I would know what to do here. Do you call and hope he is over valuing Ace-Rag or pushing a big draw, or fold and wait for a better spot? I probably pay him off and feel stupid about it when he shows A9.
