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?

Yes!

You let the blinds into the hand cheap/free with any old cards, then on the flop you let them all see the turncard for cheap!

If you'd raised preflop and on the flop the guy who drew out on you with small cards probably wouldn't even have been in the hand to see the turn

Then once it's too late you woke up and started spewing chips <G>

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.

grunch..

You need to be raising this preflop, otherwise you're going to be winning some small pots with your AA. You have a huge preflop edge - push it.

You need to raise the flop, as well. If there wasn't an obvious draw on the board, it might be fine to wait until the turn, but not here.

Because you posted this, I'm guessing you lost to a 5.

I agree with what others have said. One other point - you should be raising about 8-10% of your hands. If you do this, folks won't autmatically put you on AA every time you raise, so no worries there. Or if they do, you will be winning a lot of money, one set of blinds at a time.
