A few hands for review/comments....

Apologies I can't seem to get the converter to work. Is it just me?

No reads as this is about 10 hands into my session.

1 - I'm not betting the turn... you only beat a bluff or a fish right now (someone with a high

or a 9).. ugly flop ugly turn.
2 - An 8x raise preflop with no action is front... this is read dependant.. you say the table was tight, well I'm just folding here unless the guy has been a maniac giving me good reason to think AQ is good.
3 - C'mon, you know this is a bad beat! You should have lost a stack here (results oriented) instead of losing $10.

Always buyin for full.

hand 1 is just a geniunely tough spot, but remember. You're really only betting that turn so you can fold to a raise unless you read otherwise.

Hand 2, i fold and don't really worry about it.

Hand 3, Kiton01 raises [$4]. I love you. Well, I love parts of you, and this was one of them.

Precisely.

Thanks guys.

I actually called in hand 1 and my JJ lost to his QQ.

Just played another one which had me in no mans land. Advice would be appreciated.

Was I a complete whimp on the flop? Should I have put in a good sized re-raise and fold to another bet? The turn card was horrible. Do I put villain to most likely to be on JJ, KK or AA?
