Is it too early for results?

I made it 5200, called the push, and lost to TT.

Wow at people wanting to just call, wtf?

I like raising here to $4500 ish and fold to a shove. Villain would so rarely 3 bet bluff the river here trying to get us to fold a flush / trips IMO to make calling for the sake of not being rebluffed better.

I have a pair and a backdoor door flush draw so it would be a shame to get cr'ed and have to fold knowing I'm often folding the best hand. Also, I'm not going to cbet this flop 100% (in fact pretty rarely) with my total misses so its good for balance to check behind a pair sometimes too.
