I dont play bad, i have bad situations.

i find myself losing a lot of chips, not because im playing badly, but because the situations that i get in are really tricky.

For instance, i raise from the button after it all folds to me. (looks like steal, hand range is wide)... I get called by the BB only (his calling range is wide, suited connectors, marginal K Q A etc... Flop come A A K two diamonds. He check calls my flop bet, (looks like a C-bet, i mean would i bet an A here?) Turn is a 7s and he check calls another bet. River is a blank, like a 5 that doesnt complete a flush. He checks again!... so im thinking like a weak suited king, a busted flush draw, K10 off etc.. I bet the river light. and he calls. shows AQ.

then, i get aces really early. This table is super tight... so i call an UTG raise 4x BB and i get 1 caller after me and the BB and SB. Flop comes 10 5 2 with 2 clubs. This is a good flop cuz i dont think that the guy after me is calling with 10-5 or 5-2 or 10-2... im just worried about the blinds now. Maybe 10-10 from the UTG raiser.

the sb bets out halfpot, so now im kinda weirded out a bit. BB folds, original raiser smooth calls, I want to raise, but if SB re raises im folding. So i opt to smooth call to see what happends on turn because i'm thinking someone has a flush draw... the guy after me smooth calls. Turn is a 3 no flush complete. SB checks, thinking ok lets semi bluff didnt work, check... BB checks, I check, because im only scared of a flush at this point i dont have anyone on a straight... now the last person to act bets 80% pot and sb and utg fold.

Now im thinking he might have A10, or J10 and think top pair is good or HE might be the one with a flush draw and is semi bluffing because of all the weakness shown, so i raise him all in (which is a correct bet size for the pot, his bet, my stack and his stack, thinking he might fold the draw... but he calls with a set of 5s im drawing to a gutter wheel and i miss it and im out.

Then i was playing in a cash game .10/.25 game 9 handed. I limp utg with 66. the guy after me raises 3xBB... it folds around and the blinds fold. So im guessing a big ace or sorts. The flop roles out 7 5 3.. now there is about 2 bucks in the pot. i have 8 behind and he has 10. I check, figuring he would C-bet and i can raise him off his hand, i elected to check raise because it looks stronger and he would fold a weak A possibly like A7 and he would obviously fold AK/AQ. he bets 2 Bucks, so i re-raise with my 66s and a gut shot, plus the pot sized bet looked weak to me. So when i raise all in, he calls with JJ so again, im drawing to a gutter and im out.

Am i playing badly or are my choices harder to make because i play tricky and get in crazy situations?
