Hand #2 - OK so he's shown down TPGK...did he play those hands like this one? I'm guessing probably not so don't go broke here.
Hand #3 - Fine.

I should have instantly put the UTG overcaller on a small pocket pair. I should have looked to hit a weird straight, so I could drain someone. Once I bet top pair on a raggy board into an overcaller, and they hang around, it's time to hit the breaks. I should seriously consider pot control unless my hand improves. If UTG offers too much action, I will fold. Instead I got tricky, and played terrible after the flop. I need to learn how to play implied hands after the flop before trying this again.
