AQo is very rarely a fold UTG. This is not an exception.
1) Rake was seemingly harsh. I bought in for £30 (equivalent to 1,000,000VND) and entered the game with 9000 chips. I cashed out for 12,000 and left with the equivalent of £30.30 :S. It was my first time and got a membership so perhaps my fee attributed to that.
2) Had I been fully-stacked I would agree but it's too stiff to play with that kind of stack size and not have any money behind to rebuy. Next time I will go with the intention of entering the game ith 100bb.
3) Similar to my previous observation. Normally I would not have considered it a problem but my stack size offered me little leverage and zero fold equity (I was getting called despite folding for sometimes 4 or 5 full orbits at at time). The reason I posted about that particular hand is to get some feedback regarding player types in the situation vs my stack size and image.
