Analysis:
Preflop: A reraise is a more standard option too, but hero decides to keep pot smaller. If hero could pot commit both players (ie: stacks less than ~27k), then a reraise is better.
Flop: Standard. Hero correctly slow plays against PFR who would likely continuation bet this flop.
Turn: Normal play is to donk low draw enabling turn, but hero takes calculated risk. Does hero check/raise turn? That may be better play.
River: Not a great river card for hero. Hero decides to check and let Vil2 bet. Hero is fortunate that Vil2 bets, so hero check raises to get value.

Analysis:
Preflop: Standard.
Flop: Standard. Hero has little equity with 1 pair and 8 low.
Turn: Standard. It is more prudent to check because the board is fairly locked down with a flush.
River: Is there merit in turning hand into bluff and betting? Hero decides to check and decide. Unfortunately, the board is extremely coordinated, so Vil4 may be value betting (rivered straight rather than a bad flush) or bluffing. Hero folds as Hero can only really beat a bluff.

Hero's stack: 84000 -> 170000
Analysis:
Preflop: Standard.
Flop: Standard. Hero has decent 2 way hand (bottom 2 pair, 2nd nut low draw).
Turn: This was a bit tricky and non-standard. Hero follows read that Vil9 likely has AAxx, so hero might be ahead for both sides of the pot. Hero decides to try to get maximum value before a scare card on the river. Hero is fortunate that read is exactly right, with Vil7 only having 2nd nut low draw.

(2 players - 13600 in pot)
Flop: Kc 8c 4c
Hero: bets 11000

Analysis:
Preflop: Standard.
Flop: Standard. Hero is bet/folding since Vil1's calling and/or raising range is any flush. The board is monotone, so there is fold equity even though there are 2 low cards on board. Hero can easily have nut flush and nut low draw as part of range.
---------------

Analysis:

Flop: Hero bet too large on flop. A more reasonable bet size is 5500-6500. This bet is ok on this board texture because hero has decent equity as a semibluff.

Hero is moved to Table 380 as BB for rebalance purposes.

Analysis:

Flop: This could actually be a bet with bottom 2 pair. But, hero decides to keep pot small.
Turn: Standard. With low completing, there is little fold equity. Hero tries to get to showdown.
River: Standard. Hero does not likely have best high hand with tens and sixes. Even if this is a bluff, it might be a bluff with the best hand (naked low draw).

Analysis:
Preflop: Standard. Although hero has 3 low cards, A85 is not really that great of a low. Hero's previous history is that Vil1 is thinking and isolating hero with a wide range. Unfortunately, hero's hand is crushed by Vil1's likely range (AAxx, AB2 or AB3 with counterfeit protection, etc...)

Analysis:
Preflop: Standard.
Flop: Standard.
Turn: Hero's notes indicate "value raise with redraw as an option".
Hero is unsure if check/raise is best play. It seemed like a better play to value raise with redraw, but there may have been better value to just let Vil1 continue to bluff. Additionally, hero might also be freerolled by an unlikely A56 hand.

Analysis:

Flop: Standard. Hero was hoping to steal pot.

Vil6: checks
(2 players - 145000 in pot)
River: Ks 7d 7h Qh 9h
Hero: checks
Vil6: bets 35000
Hero: thinks for a bit, examines hero's stack size, then calls
Vil6: mucks
Hero: shows hand
Hero: wins pot.
Analysis:
Preflop: Standard.
Flop: Standard. On a dry board, hero is ok with keeping pot small. A hero raise would not get worse hands to call.
Turn: Standard. Hero hopes to see another bet from Vil6, but this does not work.
River: Hero took time with hand. Hero realizes that a backdoor flush could be a small part of Vil6's range. However, hero double checks stack size and what options that leaves hero if wrong. Hero decides that hand is best against Vil6's range and calls.

Hero's stack at Level 21 break (at bag and tag for night) (Blinds: 6000/12000) - 260000
