BankRoll around $600

Nothing too exciting to report today. Took 3rd place in a $10 SNG yesterday, and went out in 5th in one today.

Here are the hands that did me in on the first one. I was the chip leader with three left, and a complete luck sack drew out on me continuously

I'm not sure what I should have done with this hand. Check-fold after the flop?

I hit two pair on the flop. Pot is 1300, and I bet roughly one third. I didn't want to scare him away. He then of course hits his two outer on the turn. Good thing I didn't bet the river.

And then the one from today really pissed me off. I hadn't been invloved in too many hands so far. But I did take one pot off of villain earlier when I hit top pair with ok kicker. He hit middle pair with crap kicker, and called my raise on the flop, then bet smallish on turn and river and I called him down, taking the pot. My read on him is that he is a total muppet. He seemed to fold if he didn't have a hand, but would stay with it if he caught anything on the flop, even bottom pair.

Even after all that, I'm still about even the last 2 days. I took a nice $30 pot this morning with KK in a .10/.25 NL game.

Bankroll is just under $600 I think
