Your hand preflop is a POS. I would fold it almost every time. You got about as good a flop as you could reasonably hope for and are still in murky water. I think against a typical opponent this...

Re: Hand 1

Heads up I like this play. He's going to need a 4-card hand to have you in bad shape here, and that's just not so likely. You'd rather have a 24 or 23, but heads up this is a fine play...
