This is about the 2nd time in 300 hands today that I've actually had a nut low. If I check it down because I have a one-way hand, it turns out villian has a worse low and I would have won more money by betting. If I'm aggressive, this happens.

I really do want to learn this game, but I feel like a fish out of water hand after hand after hand...

Whoa... you really should be raising preflop here.

1. A2TJs is a really great hand. The vital A2 for the nut low and both a suited Ace and three broadway cards to make a high with. You can play it heads up or against a field so just pump it preflop and be happy either way.

2. You've got good position and with a raise you're likely to get the best position possible.

You should be building big pots with big hands in position, might as well start preflop.

Post flop I play flop and turn the same but I bet the river too.
