Only 1 pair, am I always behind

edited September 2010 in The Poker Clinic
Had these 3 hands last night in resonably quick succession, am I always behind and therfore do i get it right 2 out of 3? Or is this bad play. No real reads, as playing new level.

    Hand 1) I'd probably call and make a note with no reads, unsure what opponents representing could have set but dont see why would try to kill the action there, maybe also has ace but if he does i reckon your ahead here

    hand2)  Same as above

    hand 3) bet more on flop as 3 opponents bet full pot, would try to get in on the turn aswell thats just unlucky really you got done on the turn dont really blame the call there


    Obviously all of these would be different if had any reads

    Thanks Young Gun.

    In Hand1 I defo was thinking rag ace of some kind but assumed he had made 2 pair. Hand 2 it looks like straight but as you say why try to shut hand down on turn.

    Can't say there wasn't some frustration on hand 3, thought I was ahead on flop, only worried about set and bet on turn was 'crying raise' if such a thing exists.

    Is Mr xx the same player in the first 2 hands? If so I think you may have been ahead if Mr xx is the player I am thinking of. PM me if you want with his name and I will confirm if its the same player.

    hand1 and 2 are played fine, bet bigger on flop in hand3 dont think you can fold turn once he raises bc of stack sizes

    tempted to say perhaps check behind in hand 1 & 2 on the turn though thats probably just results orientated
