Re: New to the game, please check some hands from my session
Hand 1: Fold preflop. This hand will just get you in trouble. I'd probably value bet a little smaller on the river, but the rest looks fine.
Hand 2: Definitely bet the turn. Villain's most likely hand is a set here and you don't want to let that draw for free. After checking the turn, you've really under-repped your hand and have to call. Even a tight player can no one when to try to move someone off a straight on a flush board.
Hand 3: Don't much like a raise. Calling and then pushing the turn if everyone else folds and the board doesn't pair would be better.
Hand 4: This is tricky, but I'd raise the flop against most players as this kinda looks like a weak draw. If you get called on the raise, you can either check it down the rest of the way or pot a blank turn depending on how the game's playing.
Hand 5: Pretty good. If anything, you could try betting a little less on the flop though as you lose less when villain hits a hand and if he doesn't have a flush or a set, he'll be perfectly happy to fold for $2.
