I only looked at the first 4 hands but it seems like you're playing losing poker.

Wait, you fold the 2 AA hands and then fold the KT top twopair? I think the 22 hand was a mistake on the turn but set over set isn't exactly a huge leak. Don't want to get into a huge strategy discussion here but yeah [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I don't play NL $200 but I think you played several of these hands wrong. The one that really stood out is where you made the spade flush draw on the river and the villain pushes 4x pot and you call. The line you took makes it look like you have or at least could very likely have a flush draw yourself... why would villain push like that unless he beats you? Maybe you had a read or something... but that plays just seems bad to me. But sorry about the bad run, I know how it goes... it'll turn around if you've been a decent winner in the past I'm sure.

EDIT: Ah nevermind I didn't notice you only had 1/2 of his final bet. But still I'd think twice about it before instantly calling.

The problem with that hand, is not calling the river bet IMO, once he got that far, folding is kind of stupid. the problem, is that he shouldn't have gone so far in a unraised pot with a baby flush draw to begin with. Don't go broke in unraised pots!
