As a side thought, I figured it would be good when I was looking over the beginner's list of leaks and figure out what my main problems were.

I think this is the most glaring hole I have atm.

5) Calling flop and turn bets - Unless you are calling for a good reason (e.g. based on a play you plan to make on a later street or because pot odds demand it), it is generally better to fold or raise than to call. As with every rule there are exceptions, and poker should definitely not be boiled down to raise or fold . Just be wary of turning into the dreaded "calling station."

But meh, when one has shitty post flop skills, I guess a problem like this is probably expected and probably goes hand in hand with my growth to becoming an agressive player.
