mstram, i realize this is the beginner's forum...
but the A3 preflop call is a huge error. all-in or fold. strong preference for fold.
...i don't think people mind answering your hand histories, but i think we'd like to think there is some basic book/internet learning going on at same time....

If you could explain why it's a huge error that would be great.
I've actually believe it or not, read quite a bit, considering I've only been reading / playing for about 3 weeks !
Maybe I'm reading the wrong things [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

basically 10X big blind is all-in or fold unless you have very big hand and want to get your opponents whole stack and worry everyone will fold to your action. so you'd only limp pre=flop to reraise all-in later preflop or go all-in on flop.
and in general i'd say two pair is probably good for 40-50 BB's pre-flop. if not much more. depends on flop... but i'm all over getting my $$$$ in in this spot.

What do you mean by "10x big blind" ? ... (the size of the pot ??)

You should read Harrington on Holdem. There's three volumes. It will answer questions like you have in this post and also your main post.
