    I might flat the first raise pre, but I think the raise is fine as well.  I'm also calling the very small 4bet.

    Down the streets his betting is so weak his hand looks exactly like what it is and I think I'm calling along as well on that board.

    Dont love the 3 bet pre, but guess is fine.

    All else fine

    I dont mind the raise on the button pre but prefer a call. Seeing a flop is probably ok.

    If he had overpair to the board his betsizing would be bigger probably but i dont see the point in being too agressive so calling down seems right here.

    flat his first raise pre readless imo, as played call the 4bet. What was your plan when you 3bet? When you flat the 4bet

    postflop ok I think given his sizing, but if you called to setmine I prob still fold flop

    Well my reason for 3 betting pre is i had the button which is best position to have act last so thought i 3 bet in position so even if it comes a high flop or k high flop if i get a check i can always c- bet and rep the ace or king and take down the pot is this good or bad thinking ?

    post flop thinking is fine mostly, but have to get there first.  If he 4bets us we put ourself in yuk spot.

    Almost prefer pricing in blinds to MW set mine IP.  If we do 3bet pre n get stationed, board comes all the combo's that ruin your hand vs his 3bet calling range and 4 bet range.  C-betting isnt great line when he checks these flops as he will unlikely donk out when he stations you pre. 

    As is we get a favourable flop
