    First off, start using a converter, a list of them can be found in the HH sticky.

    First hand: Why raise this from EP? You aren't gaining anything by doing it. At these limits, limping with this hand is OK. And I think you need to bet this flop.

    LImping would have kept the pot smaller, so when you did lead out on the flop, You could have folded (if you chose) to the reraise that was coming. With the size of your stack, and the size of the pot on the flop, you were married to this hand.

    2:Ok, now why are we NOT raising this??? You know they will call anything, make them pay to do so.

    Your bet on the flop was too small, you bet out <1/2 pot. I'm thinking about 3/4 pot would be sufficient. They are not goign to believe you have anything and will try and chase, you need to make them pay. Then the flat call is horrible, You needed to put in a pot sized raise right there. They obviously like their hands and are willing to play.

    the turn....... *hangs head in shame* WHAT HAND ARE YOU AFRAID OF HERE??
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    this hand is crap. fold pf. do you think KJ is the best hand out there?
    your out of position
    you have a bad hand
    your opponents will not give you respect


    fold pf. dont limp unless you have excellent flop skills.
    I get more ass than a toilet seat. All shapes/colors/sizes.

    I really don't like the raise with KJo, for two reasons. I know this is only .01/.02, but if you look at the hands that call here, you're probably behind PF, and dominated on the flop by a better king. And you're out of position.

    Hand 2 wasn't as bad, and at least you didn't get stacked.

    Thats a very results oriented approach. I think he played it VERY poorly if he doesn't get stacked here.

    I strongly agree with Marm here. Very weak play on Hand 2.
