I have a very simple preflop rule.

"Do no slowplay before the flop. PERIOD"

If you are in the sb with AA and it folded to you raise.

This is one of the very few "rules" that I have but you get burned way too often slowplaying before the flop.

You must raise preflop. Wouldn't you rather win a small pot than lose a large one?

You must raise the flop. BB has given you a gift by betting for you. You must raise to try and knock out a bare 9 or a bare 3.

The rest of the hand plays differently if you raise anywhere.

1)You didn't make your post very easy to read.
2)You should raise PF.
3)You should raise the flop.
4)Turn is more debatable, but I would probably just call at this point.
5)You should fold this river when its 2 back to you.

So yeah, misplayed on every street. Don't worry, you'll learn.

Thanks Drunk about making the post easier to read how would I go about doing that?

If you have the hand history from where ever you played, use the converter . You might want to bookmark it. If you don't have a HH, you're going to have to put it in manually. Try and use the suits, and keep it orderly is all.

Either one use the hand converter here's a link
Or two do it on your own with all the nifty symbols [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] like so
Just look at a hand that has been done by the converter and replicate it or closely imitate it.

Though all of this hinges on getting the hand history from the site you play so that you can give an accurate setup for the hands.
General Rules:
1 Don't show results (causes results oriented thinking)
1b don't phrase your post in such a way that it gives
away the results if you can help it.
2 Ask particular questions if posible
3 Make your post as ledgible as posible, yours is not bad it's much better than just copying and pasting the hand history but it could deffinately improve.
4 add any thoughts as to why you played it the way you did, or particular acctions you've noticed in your villan (opponent reads)
5 make it as accurate as possible
6 If your question is very specific stop the action where you're question is.

Just look at some other posts and you'll get a feel for it I'm sure. Welcome to the micro's. You'll learn a lot if you listen to these guys and think things through with them.
