Hand I:
I'm not worried about CO, he's calling station and could have just one pair. UTG didn't seem very loose preflop, so I put him on a smaller set. 88 or 77 would be quite possible.

Should I have slowed down earlier?


Hand II:
On the river I get worried about the flush and just call. Too weak?


Hand III:

Button is unknown. I thought this hand was pretty standard. Don't want to lay this down on the river against a party unknown.



Comments welcome.

Hand 1: I'd check the river
Hand 2: that's fine
Hand 3: I'd 3-bet. he probably doesn't have the flush, which protects you from getting capped by a straight. a lot of the time you'll be up against 2 pair here

[ode]

Hand 1: UTG has 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. There goes my read.
Hand 2: I'm up against KQ offsuit. MHIG.
Hand 3: K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] drags the pot...

Total profit (<font color="red">-$11</font>)

Well, losing is fun... down 25BB or so last 2000 hands. I think I should start winning AQs with better than 13% of the time... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
