Playing ok ish but 6 hands ive dominated and lost them all probably my fault on some by not c betting ,But imo im raising well pre with these hands but am getting suspect calls,Do i need to raise more than 5x with hands like above?Ty all

Batkin88

Are you raising 5x with these types of hands and different amounts with worse hands??
I would raise less c-bet and give up if called on that board alot of the time. Or c-bet and barrel turn but by checking and then betting turn your only repping the 8 but the size of the raise pre may give him reason to not believe you have the 8 (Having the jack obv helps him here)
If you have AK pre flop and play it like a big pair pre play it like a big pair on the flop and if called or raised re- evalute.
When he calls you on turn why are you betting the river aswell what do you think he could be calling with that your beating on the river and he is still calling with?

EDIT: just seen you called river my mistake should of folded readless

Never chase a flush on a paired board, you should have folded on the turn!

5x pre on button is weird, 3x would be better imo.

Flop defo cbet such a dry flop, so hard to hit, take it down here most times with £1.20 bet.

Turn after checking seems ok to call for flush, might even raise.

River pretty easy fold for me where an pair has a house.
