I am taking another shot at the 100NL level.
Every time I have taken a shot I have gotten my arse handed to me so this time I have been buying in short ($50 instead of $100) and playing tight poker for the most part.
All this is at UB whichI have not played on very much and thus don't have alot of hands/notes on players yet. All of these Villians I have had no notes on at the time of the hand.
Standard fold on this first hand?
Could I have taken a better line?

==============================================
Call the turn? Fold the turn?
River bet too big, should I have made a smaller value bet?

================================================== =======
Was my turn blocking bet ok? was it too small?
I planned on folding to a raise.
Was the river bet too big?
I am not getting the hang of making value bets on the river
at the 100NL level.
