This is not indicative of my normal style of play, but it does show some common mistakes.
Hand 1: Villian is somewhere in between maniac and calling station, on his second buy in. I really just wanted t otake the pot down on the turn, to prevent a draw out, but I ran a serious risk of being called by a weak A or A9/A3.

The min raise let BB in with suited crap, and I paid it off.
Hand 3: Villain is solid, and his bet on the turn told me i was beat, but i couldn't let go of top pair. On the river, I was committed to calling the small value bet.

Hand 4: Min raise strikes again!!! I didn't realize I was making these little raises until I reviewed the session. It is not a normal play for me. Villain is a calling station post flop, but solid preflop.

I could have won this hand on the turn with a big follow up bet, but after a couple losses I was playing weak-tight.
Hand 5: I would like some comments on this one. Its a possible fold/raise pre-flop, but what can I put Villain on wit hhis pre-flop UTG limp?
