Re: Did I play this too slow??
 

reload before hand starts

3 bet flop all day long
raise turn

hand#2.
Pf call is bad... RAISE and get it hu with weak limper and cbet and take his money

and raise more on flop rest is standard

Re: Did I play this too slow??
 

raise more on the flop, ok... I figured I would raise 3x the previous raise, but I guess with two people apparently liking their hand, I should raise more?

Re: Did I play this too slow??
 

well the previous raise was very small and theer was already money in the pot id bump it to ~5.

You want to raise because you would like to get in as much $ on the flop as you can. Its drawy and a lot of scare cards can come and just kill the action.
