Open raising in cash games compared to MTT's/SnG's
This might sound like a bit of a silly question, but when open raising in cash games should I be doing anything different to MTT's/Sng's? When I OR in a tourney of any kind it's usually 3x (maybe a bit more in the first 2 levels) but when I do this in cash games I seem to get called all over the place which is annoying…

Should i get away from this?
I'm not a regular cash player and was just chilling this morning. I didn't know the player here and I had only played a few hands at this table. This was an unraised pot, and i had A10, hit TPTK and I check raised when button looked like he was stealing. He reshoves his stack. Should i fold or is this too tight?…

Is this too paranoid?
Live .50/1 Cash Game at my local. Villain just sat down with £100, I have him slightly covered, and he's a solid, regular winner. With 77 I limped in Pre-Flop in the cut-off behind 2 limps, SB called and BB (Villain) checked so there was 5 to the flop. Flop (£5): 7T8 Rainbow BB bets £4, UTG+1 calls £4, 1 fold, Hero raises…

Top 2 on draw heavy board
That is such a difficult one to judge. The half pot bet from them is perfect in this situation. I'd be tempted to make the call and see what the river holds, obviously it's possible it could bring another club and and your hand would look dead and buried but of course you could be in front at the time with whats out.

Making notes on your opponants
The notes I make seem to do more harm than good. Does anyone have any suggestions what to write and how to use them. I tend to use them when I feel I have had a bad beat which is probably just bad luck. But I think that I have used this as an indication of how they normally play.
