6 hands in one thread is too ridic. Keep it to one per thread and youll get better reponses. Plus you have no reads/stats on villains so not much to say.

One thing tho... it doesnt look like you have a plan for your hands and you're not paying enough attention to stack sizes.

50k hands is not a big sample honestly.

Well my answer might not be relevant since my mind set is playin 50nl - 100nl games but I would imagine these games would have some tardish players, which makes it all the more harder having no stats on the villains but reading it blind this is how I would interpret them as a 50 - 100nl player, I'll have a go.
Hands 1 to 3 i think is fine.
hands 4 to 6 i'm havin some problems with

Hand 4 - , flop fine, turn bet fine turn bet call isnt.
I usually find this player would call for his draws and would call his jack,when he check raises all in he is two pair or better so many times. here is a nice guide I found on this, its been proven mathmatically longterm if you call this bet you will loose. http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/7...raise-data-analysis-micro-stakes-long-131987/ - I give this credit to acky100 found it in one of his posts, and its been saving me ALOT lol.

Hand 5
I can go either way with personally, as played but you could make the argument if your gunna check call fold, i rather a bet/fold however since fish love all aces when I see that turn card vs two fish in a pot i'm done.

Hand 6
the re raise is pretty alarming IF* he never 3 bets, call me weak but when i see the king flop givin up, however if he 3bets abit i like the other option which is bet folding and I prefer that option so river i fold.

I cant really comment on many cause we know nothing about stats, but please post some individually with player stats and reads.

Hand 6 though, why are you betting the flop? looks like a WA/WB situation to me does it not?

Thanks these all make sense!

I hadn't heard of WA/WB at this point I think.

The reason I am posting a lot of hands is to give people a general idea of how I play them and to get general feedback on where I am going wrong. Personally I thought I might be overvaluing them postflop. I didn't expect in-depth analysis of each hand, just more general feedback.

I know 50000 isn't huge but surely it is enough to say I shouldn't be down $28.... I would expect to be making a nice profit with such a strong hand. All my other hands are fine, 99-jj, A10-AK, AA and KK all show nice profits, but QQ has always lost me money...
