I promissed myself that I should start posting hand histories about a month ago so it's about time now. Anyway here are some big pots from todays session.

Villain seemed good, maybe just a bit passive preflop. I definitely put him on a lot of hands with a Q here so I was prepared to play for stacks. Is there a better way to get all the money in?

Villain in this hand was nitty. I think his stats at the time was something like 10/4. More importantly though, my image at the table was supermaniac/superfish.

This was at the same table as the previous hand but my image was definitely tighter/more solid now. Not a lot of hands on villain but he seemed fishy. Thoughts about playing this big a pot with an overpair against a relatively unknown player? I didn't really get any resistance.

I definitely messed up on this hand. Is a raise on the turn always neccessary? Unknown villain. I don't know what to put in his range either.
