Thanks for your responses guys. They are appreciated. I just want to clear a couple of things up though.

I didn't raise in Hand 1, I called the raise. If it is limped to me I am raising 4xBB + 1xBB per limper. I didn't re-raise this hand because I have been having problems with playing big pots with TPGK type hands and so I like to try to keep the pots quite small. Does this sound right with AQ? I would probably re-raise AK, TT+ but thats pretty much all.

In this particular hand the Villain (Yafox) was very loose and had played trash in the hands I had seen. Based on the fact he limped and then called raise OOP and the flop I was pretty sure I was ahead.

I am surprised you say this. I know you have been at the Crypto sites for while after reading your blogs. The tables I am at normally have 2-3 players with VP$IP at 40%+ PFR at 15%+ and post flop agg at 2+. Some are worse than others.

The table stats at these tables were VP$IP 40%+ PFR about 18%. And had 3-4 of these players at them along with 1-2 tighter players but still pretty loose. All the players were raising SC as well as their big hands. The difference being they would call down with their SC's regardless of whether they hit.

They were pretty crazy but I thought I would do well their as I am normally playing strong hands or hands with good implied odds.
