I found it really hard in BOTD the other night.
Extremely card dead and when I did get a hand I got raised on the flop after a conti bet against 1 opponent.
Where did I go wrong?

Hi justkyle88,

I would bet more on the flop in hand 1. Betting just 300/750 is too little, and can be seen as weakness by more aggressive opponents.

Second hand looks good. Well played and unlucky

I see what you mean.
I think I was just playing scared in that first hand. Thanks.

Just so card dead, was unbelievable.

2nd hand was my last chance to make something and like you said i feel as though I just got unlucky so I'm happy with that 2nd hand.
