Re: I can\'t figure it out...PLEASE HELP

That sort of tight play isn't an issue in the early part of an STT. My guess is you need to open up your game as you get into the later levels. Watch the other players early on - you wont have much...

Re: I can\'t figure it out...PLEASE HELP

The problem here is that your results are there. However small, you have begun your poker career as a winning player. You've spent $660 (I'm assuming it's $2.20 to play a $2 STT) and have $666...

You did nothing wrong - preflop you almost certainly had the best hand.
