Learning cash

edited December 2013 in The Poker Clinic
Ok, so I have done ok in stt/mtts on sky... turning £10 into a decent roll in both 2012 and 2013, but I cant seem to get anything going in cash poker. Help please -
Is this too aggressive here on the river? Is anyone calling me with worse than a straight here? Fold pre (even this deep?)? I had only just joined the table so readless.

IF I flat the tiny 4bet, im still going broke on the flop.... but am I always best off flatting oop here? I knew he had a tight range utg here but I dont want to just give up my hand pre too often and so if im flipping going to the flop then id rather get my chips in first? Again, readless is this always a losing play long term?Hand History #723500200 (22:13 22/12/2013)PlayerActionCardsAmountPotBalancejimb0d1Small blind £0.10£0.10£23.84zBig blind £0.20<td class="hhamt" style="margin:0px;padding:7px 5px;vertical-align:middle;font-family:verdana;border:1px solid #badffd;font-size:0.9em;text-align:right !important;"

    Hand 1 - 100% fold pre, definitely definitely. I'd suggest not using the betting buttons (type in your own bets) which is what you did on the turn. River think we should just give up.

    Hand 2 - vvv hard to give advice on HU cash hands cos so much relies on reads/game flow etc. Readless I don't really like calling the flop, all you really have is a very weak 4flush draw where if it comes 4 to a flush on the board, he's either gonna have a better flush so we lose OR he's scared of the 4flush so we don't win anything. As played, I'd just take the free card on the turn and so would just be giving up on river.
