before you get carried away.What do you think might be an issue?I'lll assume preflop and flop are fine in everyones book.You think calling down after the raise was too loose or too passive?

Just wanted to make sure preflop raise is right with AJo. Also, it's fairly evident what he has. I know I still have 4 outs to the river, so I call his raise, but should I be calling the river here? I guess I really can't fold getting 14-1, and he could definitely pull this play with AT or A6 here.This really wasn't the worst one of the few I posted though.Just trying to see if I'm on the right track.I honestly can't manage to have a good winning session in LHE anymore.Thanks.

yes preflop raise is standard, good.you played it well.unless you have great read, villan plays many hands you crush this way at .5/1Posting many hands is a good thing to do when you are losing or winning. Often times it's not clear which hands are the reason. Often it's just variance. By Variance, I mean you are not ending up with the winning hand as often as normal random dealing would predict given your starting hands.

Yeah, I usually end up posting a few hands each time I play LHE, just to get some feedback. This forum is a great place for it. Honestly though, I don't play nearly enough LHE anymore to get a real sense of whether I'm winning or losing long term. I'm addicted to the $10 SNGs on Party, and the 25 PLO Thanks for the feedback.Zach
