Ever here the quote, "Poker is a lot like sex, everyone thinks they're good at it but most people don't know what they are doing?" You are a premature ejaculator w/small rod that thinks he's Ron Jeremy.

I'm no expert, but I know enough to recognize that you have a lot of work to do. There are numerous mistakes in the hands that you posted, which other posters have pointed out. Reading SSHE does not automatically make you good. The material in any of the 2+2 books is usually fairly advanced and takes some time to digest and understand. Getting good also takes a lot of practice. Many people play for a year or more before becoming consistant winners. Some people never become winners.

You should study a lot and constantly work on your game as you play. BTW, don't play in play money games; I don't think they help much. If you're losing too much money to handle you can move down as low as .01/.02 til your game starts improving. Never be satisfied. GL
