elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 Hand 1: yeah...no. Bluffing this hand would probably worked better if you had checked raised the flop or turn. Raise ATo same spots you would raise KTo, KJo, and QJo (i.e. late position, not UTG)

Hand 2: i actually like this play, a bit more aggressive than I would do, i prefer just the check/call with bottom pair. Either way I think you did okay on this one.

Hand 3: Again, nothing you can really do here, We've all made this play.

Hand 4: not too bad a call here, Mike could be making a value bet. You know if he didn't fnord would have. Plus, he should have raised here preflop with AJ. On second thought, you should have check-raised your oesd here on the turn. By not raising preflop, he's not representing anything good here and a raise on the turn could possibly have scared his ass away. Its better than calling him down and you always can fold the river if his scare card hits.

Hand 5: Good job.


Your hands arent too bad overall, just looks like some bad luck. The only stupid mistake you made was against me (thanks by the way )

Too much time iwht the fishies for raising AJo from UTG to profit.
So you just called? Calling is the wrong play here, you have no idea how good your hand is. By raising, you force other players with worse hands to make a mistake, which will make you money. Other players with AJo would now have to incorrectly cold call your bet or make a very aggressive 3 bet here. AJo is just as strong as AQo when theres no 3 bet here. And players with AQ and AK would now signal you that they also have a good hand. Calling UTG is rarely a good play.
