Three 5nl hands with confusing spots

Oh and raising suited connectors is usually better then calling.

How come?

How come?

well the simplest reason is over the long haul you will make more money by raising the flop then c-betting the you will by str8 hunting. Most micro players are fit or fold players. Meaning unless they flop a pair or draw they will fold to your c-bett. Another reason is if you raise and get rid of a few players you have a much better chance of winning when flop you second or 3rd pair.Knowing what turns to to double barrel when your c-bet is called also helps.
