OP is meh but Stacks' replies in this thread are gold - mandatory reading for beginners and I'd almost say put it in the digest for an example of how to properly think your way through a hand. Instant classic. Yeah, ok the turn fold might be a bit tight, but it's the thought process that counts.
In fact - I've never really been able to produce an analysis of this quality, but I really think we should have a "best of" set of analysis posts that show beginners how it's done. Would be ideal if we could cut out some of the noise (even where the noise is the asking of the stupid question that causes the excellent and insightful response - just leave out the question and go with the response).
Maybe make it an occasional thing. Pick a hand that's been posted and/or discussed (on any forum) - even simple ones (maybe especially simple ones seeing as it's the beginners forum) and do a proper, relatively complete analysis and add it to a distinct library of reading material. There's a ton of good stuff on here, but trying to find it can result in reading barely legible trash for hours.
Maybe given a bit of time this could become a library of standard situations where in a given hand history instead of pointing out the obvious we could link to a couple of applicable "best of" analysis posts and ask the OP himself to consider which principles from those hands apply in his situation. Really fantastic learning accelerator if this could be accomplished.
