    Default Operation: Lose my weakness

    After losing a significant amount of my winnings Ive decided to start my very own Operation / blog. Im a beginner player and Im bringing new meaning to "micro-stakes". The important thing to know is that the currency in the operations image is in $ but im working in £. So beginning BR is £26 (around $50) and ill be playing 1c/2c FRNL Holdem.

    what I really want is to get feedback on hands I may post, Im really quiet a tight-weak player at the moment which is damaging to my bankroll

    About to start my first session now so will be a quick update

    Default 1st Session

    First session went amazingly well - no skill required really as the cards played for me. Unfortunately I play on VC poker where the histories are all graphic so cant copy and paste - If any interesting hands come up Ill make the effort to write it all down manually.

    Time played since last session: 1hr 50min (Table hours)
    Profit / Loss: £2.65 (2.65 100BB Buyins)


    Most of my money tonight came from hands in which I limped behind a few people or called min raises with hands like A10o and QKo and flop sets/2pair. Then I continued by making ~80% pot bets if the board isnt too scary, on one occasion i flopped TPTK, turned two pair and rivered a house and doubled up.

    My bad play was probably limping when I should be raising. But I was up against a couple of Calling Stations, my question is::

    What do you do in a pot with a calling station when you flop a marginal hand like middle pair? I can never put them on anything, they dont bet they dont raise they dont fold.

    Default Session 2

    I lost a buyin early on today with nut flush on a paired board to a full house, was kind of gutting, and another buyin with top 2pair to a flopped straight with 89Q flop. Also will be getting PokerTracker soon (around weekend) and PAHuD so hopefully they will help me plug some holes. Im 2-tabling at the moment with short sessions until next week when i can put more time in, heres todays...
