OK, so I have only been playing at this table for about fifteen minutes, and don't have a real read on this guy. He has raised from the button everytime though.

I've inserted numbers in blue from 1-4 where I would like some input as to what I should have done, or why what I did do was wrong.

Thank for all your help.

Not that it matters, but I'll share the results if wanted.

Looks ok to me.

You have to pay off QQ and 88 here, that's not a mistake. You're killing everything else.

I dont like calling a reraise preflop with 7's. You only had $6 in.

After that though you're in it for everything.

Standard

Well, wasn't a reraise, but I hear ya.

Ya, I tend to be a sucker for pocket's. I was however last to act on this raise and there were two other callers...

it wasn't a reraise, it was raised. two people called the raise before him, call with any PP you limped with in that position

OK, so the bet on the flop is the correct move. After that I would say it was pretty standard.

As for the results? Run baby run.

Implied odds.

Why i stay away from the no limit. He really butchered that thing ay? Middle pair with a backdoor flushdraw for all my chips? No thanks.

Shouldn't players like this make you want to play NL?

lol. Unless you are experiencing beats like this everyday and are playing without a proper no limit bankroll...I dont see the problem.
