Re: I\'m Confused. Please help!
If you can steal those antes, by all means do so. At this level, I'm guessing that you'll almost never be able to, though. Even if you can't knock people out when you raise with a big pair, there is value in getting more money in with the best hand. Even though it may not seem like it, Aces-up is going to win more than it's fair share of multi-way pots.
A couple of recommendations: never slow-play anything, except maybe quads. This isn't even like a structured limit game where you can collect bigger bets on the later streets. The bets are only going to be $5, so you might as well bet early and often. You should also bet the hell out of big draws--live flush draws, even very live open-ended straight draws.
