I usually play limit, and for the last week or so I've been trying to play some 6max 100 NL, with kind of sucky results.
In this first hand I have no idea of how I would get him to pay me off. My check-call-bet was a rather random result of my confusion.

This second one is a good example on how lost I am on playing draws in NL (in contrary to in Limit which Im used to). It ended with me thinking until the time was up and I was autofolded.

This third one was probably a bad rivercall. I guess I just didnt see a straight draw call my turn raise.
