Following AFS's lead in Micro-limits, I'm opening myself up for abuse by posting routine hands, not the ones that normally get posted that are "interesting" (i.e. unusual) in some way. These are the first 5 hands that I voluntarily put money in the pot in a recent session. All comments are welcome. (I think these hands show that even many "routine" hands aren't really that routine.)

Have at it!

Hands 1 and 5 are OK.

Hand 2: What are you doing calling the raise? Whatever he has, unless he's the idiot in Hand 5 you're way behind. Even if you think he only has a K and have the odds to call the turn you *really* shouldn't be calling the river.

Hand 3: I'd lead out on the flop and see where that got me, or possibly check/fold since there's a good chance I only have 4 outs. Check/calling seems a little weak, especially since the BB could raise behind you if he hit hard. The river bet also seems questionable- I don't think you're going to be called by enough hands you beat (basically limited to underpairs and T /images/graemlins/heart.gif flush draws) to make it worth while.

Hand 4: This is another check/crying call on the river to me. No hand you beat could possibly call this, but an A sure will.
