 In general you have to be much better compared to HE in shifting gears mid hand because the board changes so much.

I would give up the turn, someone has KJ+ and someone has a straight and the NFD may be in had 3 (or one of the first two). Also there may be another KT out.

as played river tough spot, I'm not sure in the micros, but someone clearly should have kings/jacks full and again the best you can hope for is to chop.

you got tarped into playing here since you are in the blind, but it's a good lesson on playing 4 connected cards.

Sucky river .... I got bitch-slapped by JJ here. The other 2 made straights on the turn .... someone missed a turn reraise I think. I'm not wholly convinced anyone knows what they are doing at the 1c/2c levels, but I need to learn somewhere.

 I'd fold the turn at higher levels, not sure you can fold it here closing the action 4 ways but chances are BOTH of your draws are dead.
