Hand 1 I will say you're beat, for no other reason then the sheer aggression taking place.

Hand 2: I might re-raise him to see what he does, if he probably gives me the free showdown at the river, if he makes it 3 it's an easy fold.

 hand 1: Nice pot, you cant lay it down on the river but you should have folded preflop

hand 2: You have to call the turn here. You cant assume someone has the flush just because they bet here. You also have a re-draw to the straight as well as TPGK.

Hand 1: I fold this preflop too.

Hand 2: I think I call the turn with 10 outs. Does anyone raise when they enter the pot here first in?

 yeah raise the turn in hand 2 to protect your outs. otherwise someone is liable to river their trips or 2pr.

H1: agree with everyone...fold this in MP.

H2: I would have raised to knock folks out behind you, and fold to a reraise. But a read helps on this one I think.

I really should move up to .05/.1. I know it yet I havent been able to do it, I have been reading SSH and just trying some of the strategies. I want to be extra cautious, actually super DUPER cautious. I want to make $30(300bb for .05/.1) then make 300bb with .05/.1. Being on the safe side. I am up $19 right now with only ~3600 hands under my belt.

 dude how much did you start with if you are still scratching to make $30? i thought the minimum deposit was $50!

you want me to stake you some cash so you can start playing for real? i played a totally weak-tight game for months at $0.25/$0.50, at the super hard UltimateBet, and still easily doubled my initial $50 stack. you don't have to be nervous AT ALL until you get to $0.50/$1 and above... and not even then, really!

if you know what "tight" even means, you are way ahead of your opponents at this level. PM me for some cash, i'll neteller it to you.

ChezJ: check your PM.

For everyone else, thank you for the advice. I have talked myself into trying out the .05/.1 games and I will post a thread about my results.
