I am currently playing .10/20 limit on PP, and bleeding slowly. This hand is indicative of what keeps happening to me.

Party Poker 0.10/0.20 Hold'em (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J, J. CO posts a blind of $0.10.
5 folds, MP3 =#A500AF(Villain)/ calls, CO (poster) checks, Hero raises, SB calls, 1 fold, MP3 =#A500AF(Villain)/ calls, CO calls.

Flop: (9 SB) Q, Q, 5 (4 players)
SB checks, Villain bets, CO calls, Hero raises, SB folds, Villain calls, CO calls.

Turn: (7.50 BB) 4 (3 players)
Villain bets, CO folds, Hero raises, Villain 3-bets, Hero caps, Villain calls.

River: (15.50 BB) 3 (2 players)
Villain bets, Hero raises, Villain 3-bets, Hero caps, Villain calls.

Final Pot: 23.50 BB

So, can some people tell me how I suck, thereby enabling me to suck a little less?

 You know the fold button is on the left....

Hand 1, sucks to be you but don't lose more than you have to. How can you cap each st. after getting 3bet into? What can he have that he can 3bet you with?
Another thot, , fold to the turn donk, if you havent heard of stop-n-go, this is it. Anyone smoothcalling flops and donking turns has you beat here bubba.

Hand 2, Why raise this flop, unless you think UTG will donk just a five or something like 66-TT. Fold to the 3bet, you're waayyyyy behind.
Also, don't donk this turn, how can you donk the turn? Also, dont donk 3bet, how can you 3bet?

Trying to be as nice as possible as I have made plenty of bad plays in my life, but you really need to slow down your postflop play. Limit poker is diff from NL, preflop doesn't mean that much and postflop is everything, looks like you really need to work on your postflop play.

 you are capping every street with hands that are almost surely drawing very slim.

You became stupid on the turn in both places.

Stop fucking raising the worst hand donk. J/K, but still true.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

wow, I guess the first place to start is realizing that top pair isn't the nuts. Second would be realizing that the majority of other players don't play second pair or worse like the nuts. On the plus side, you managed not to lose 3 more BB on the river in hand 2.
