Too greedy with the check-raise on the turn, or just unlucky with so many hands in the pot?

That's an easy preflop fold UTG. You shouldn't even be in on the hand.

I understand that, but my question was: did i get too greedy?

If I was on tilt or not is irrelevant /images/graemlins/tongue.gif Pretend I was in the BB or something if it's that hard to answer...

I don't think you played it too badly. I guess I'd have to be pretty sure that somebody would bet to try a turn checkraise. I suppose you got snapped off on the river by a bigger two pair or the straight.

You may not have asked, but you will be a significant longterm loser if u play hands like that UTG. I can't even imagine playing that there if I'm on tilt. As for the hand, you played it ok after that. Betting or checkraising the turn is ok.

Yea, for some reason I have been playing weak aces from any pos. in $1/2. I know this is wrong and understand it explains for a significant leak in my game.

I am not sure why I am doing this, but i'm sure I won't do it anymore due to hadns like these.

Thanks for the input, it is appreciated.
