Default Re: Folded three winners last night in fair size pots

Hands #1 & #3, I think you were too timid. You should have been more aggressive and bet your hand at some point. It would have been much easier figure out where you were in the hands. Especially hand # 1.

Hand #2 - that's a tough one. Unless you know the players and that they often get out of line, I think it was a good fold. Also, you have to factor in how likely the original bettor is to reraise. You have to be worried about that happening so that pushes it more towards a fold.

"I am now starting to wonder whether I know what the hell I am doing."

That's one of the problems with poker. You don't necessarily get rewarded for good play and punished for bad play in the short run. So it pretty easy to draw bad conclusions on a small sample size.
