Buy into nl cash for the max buy in, not $3. This is how to play if you had bought in full: Mash the pot button pf and add 1 bb because you are out of position. Lead the flop for 70-85% of the pot size. Fold if you get raised. Lead the turn for 66-70% and fold to any more action. Check fold the river.
As played, every street has a mistake. Mash pot button pf+1bb. Bet 70-85% on flop. Fold to a raise. Shove the turn.

You played this pretty horribly. Your pre-flop raise was way too small. You need to raise to .60-.70 here. Bet the pot or near to it on the flop. If raised, fold. If called, bet again if the turn is a blank. Otherwise check/fold.

And no, a river push would be pretty bad.

you cant call this with 4 hearts and a straight out there. this was played poorly on all streets imo

[Squishee]

Thanks for all opinions and advice, I dont take it personnal even if there is word like poorly, mistake, etc [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

So if I understand, I should change my way of betting (bet more) and be more aggressive ?

Yes, aggression is good, however you need to realize when you're beat and just give the hand up. A lot of players get stuck with AK simply because they don't hit the flop but think "well it's AK I'm not giving up" and go all the way unimproved. Very bad.

Welcome to the forums though. Keep posting hands and reading other people's posts. Also, read the sticky posts at the top of the forum for a TON of great information.

also, dont post the result.

you're not going to like this advice probably but try playing at 2nl on pokerstars. its 1-2c blinds with a $5 max buy in (you should always buy in max). After you play, like, 15k hands or something (winning, of course), and you really feel comfortable with the basics of betting and stuff then you should move up to 10nl. Cuz although players suck at 10nl, 2nl is just ridiculous... but its perfect to learn on and kinda get a confidence boost from.
