I played a short session this afternoon, only put in about 750 hands...ended up +$20
Here are a few hands...


Hand 1

Villain had just sat down at the table....the min raise was kind of weak I was thinking I should have just pushed.

Hand 2
http://www.pokerhand.org/?1242560
Villain was 57/6.0 over only 10 hands so really had no read on him.

Hand 1 I agree the Minimum Raise was a bit weak. It seems to be a common play in a number of the blogs I have read and is something we all need to get away from myself included.

Hand 2 I'm not sure I like the All in Play very much here although in the end you hit your straight, you were probably a bit lucky.

1st hand: minraises will cost you money, jam the pot when you have a set. =]

2nd hand: I shove all day, the times you're gonna win far outweigh the ones where he has a set. People at 25NL will push with weird stuff sometimes, and without a read it's impossible to fold there.

Hand 1: I just go ahead and push all in here, no need to min raise.

Hand 2: I'm going with this hand almost always in this situation although I don't usually like it.
