I played all of February and did okay. I made money, but I am nowhere near killing 5nl. I didn't play all of March and when I came back in April it's like I had forgotten how to play. Anyways, here are a couple hands that had me in a tough spot.

I am guessing that I should have bet here due to me being the aggressor earlier in the hand. Villian was running 20/14.

HAND 3:

I don't have the hand history for this one but will try to describe it as best that I can. UTG limps and it folds around to me on the button. I raise to 4x with QQ and the BB and UTG both call. Flop is 4c7cKs. The pot is $.62. I bet $.40. UTG then reraises to $2. UTG is running 67/33. What is my move here?

I noticed a common theme here. It's all whenever there is an overcard and I have a high pocket pair. Hmmm. Just thinking out loud.
