Im not pro, but i can point some SSS mistakes imho.

Hands:

1) turn should be c/f(gutshot is to be completed 8%);
2) why river call?
3) flop should be 2/3 pot bluff(cbet).

Did You read SSS articles?

I did read, but as a beginner I make mistakes. I'll reread them, but sometimes is easier if somebody points out the mistake.

Thank you

C/F for the third one, out of position and he's called your PFR so any AJQ beats you.

Well played imo.

or as Bronscapade said, lol.

The 99 hand :

You raised preflop, action flop comes. Its almost never a good idea to leave out a cbet when out of position. He checks in postion twice! This is a huge sign of weakness, then makes a small raise and you fold. Should have been 60c c bet with the bet/fold line. It might be a scary flop but it can be just as scary to your opponent!

The AQs hand :

The stack:pot ratio was less then 1.5:1. You should definately push the flop. Your ahead alot of the time here with Ace high queen kicker. If the opponent is loose your probably way ahead

AJs Hand.

Playing hands from the SB is always tricky because your always out of position! Shuffing preflop is a option, i like doing that with hands with bad playability. AS played you should have c/f after your c bet got called. You took your stab at the pot and it failed.

The 99 hand:

You have to c-bet the flop because if you do you can make a better hand such as Qx or Jx fold which are both way ahead of you and you can easily c/f if you get called or raised because then you're surely way behind.
