I'm new to ring games, and while I think initial signs are positive (after 3K Party .5/1 hands: VPIP is 17%, PFR 6%, post-flop aggr. 2.0 -- these seem to be in the right ballpark, no?), my NY's resolution is to start posting hands so I can start improving.
Weak fold here? 1st orbit, no reads.

I don't lay this down.
Here's why: By the time it gets back to you there is 16.5 BB in the pot, which in my opinion is a large pot so I don't want to make a mistake and lose it for 2BB. I would only have to have the best hand one in 8 times to show a profit from this call. You have two pair, with a pair higher than the board. How many hands are you behind that would call a raise? 44, 22, KK, A2. my $0.02 feel free to argue |

This looks good. A raise and 3-bet on the turn means someone's got a better hand than you.
Did you just call the flop raise planning on checkraising the turn? If not, then you should have been, or you should have 3-bet the flop. |

Yeah I probably fold here, but what is up with the flop/turn play? Either 3-bet the flop (almost certainly the best play) or check the turn and see what the action is.

It looks like a good laydown until the river. It seems the UTG might have JJ or TT while the other two might have been chasing the same flush. I thought the button had a set or FH with his action on the turn. But it sure don't seem that way. The river is sure an odd one.
Rough hand to start a game with, with no reads. |

3-bet the flop. If anything, the 2 on the turn probably helped your hand, giving you Aces and 2s which is going to beat any Kx that could possibly catch an x on the river. The only hands you're really behind here are KK and something with a 2, which is unlikely in a 3-bet preflop pot.

You really need to 3 bet this flop. Being the flush draw and the people stuck in between, you want them to pay to out draw you.
Also, the stop n go isn't correct in this situation. The fold on the turn isn't that good. I would easily call this down unless I knew for a fact that MP1 would cap it. MP1 could easily have KQ or AK, Qs, Js. |

Thanks, all. Yeah, I look back and can't imagine why I didn't 3-bet the flop. I play not goot. The turn raise and 3-bet behind convinced me that someone had me beat and I figured it was going to be 4+ BBs to get to a showdown.
(Results: MP1 had K-rag, I discover later that Button [T9o] is a total LAG and UTG had KQ. Not to be results-oriented, but whoops.) |
