Reads: I haven't seen either of my villains before, but I've seen enough during the first five hands to tell that they are awful. They actually played one hand together, where both limped, the other had K8o and overbet 2xPSB his KT5 twotone flop, then bet blank turn 1/3 pot and MINRAISED RIVER WHEN THE FLUSH HIT with his TPBK monster. What did the other guy do at this point? Well, why the heck not, he called and, oops, MUCKED!

Ignoring your read, UTG's flat call is pretty scary. Your read could make this a push, but given how early in the game it is, I'd probably fold figuring there will be better opportunities later on.

This I did, so I guess I'm doing fine so far.

Even better, UTG's line of cold-call two raises, then call a push turned out to be KTo. BB had pushed over my raise with AJo.

This one I [censored] up, turn T river T.

Don't worry about it. Sometimes that's just the way the cards fall. You made the right move against these donks. I'd push this all-day given the reads.
