Hands (warning, they're pretty bad)
Well, I can play well for like 2-3 hours, then it all goes downhill pretty quickly. These were all in like a 30 minute timespan between two tables.
Hand 1: No read on villain.

Is this not the easiest turn check in the world? Why am I doing this? I HAVE NO IDEA!

Okay, I think calling preflop is not as good as 3betting him. If I think he is raising light I should repop him to $16. Otherwise his potsize river bet is a pretty easy fold without a read too.
Hand 3: UTG is pretty bad in this hand. He'll bet with air if you show weakness which is why I checked the flop. No read on BB...

The best thing to do is just bet the flop here in position. Don't give free cards and if I'm called I can give it up easy on the turn and river. Although I win the hand more if I bet, I only save $4 if villains still call my Cbet.
Hand 4: No read on Villain.

Well, I'm working on my positional play. I probably should have raised the pot on the flop or folded to the turn Cbet.
Hand 5: Again no read.

Same type of hand as above. Villain doesnt exactly look like he hates this board. Raise the flop then fold if villain calls?
