i'll tell you what. you fold the hand, give me $5 every time you do and i'll bet you come out ahead in the deal.
i'd be willing to bet all of these hands are losing hands UTG in a 9-10 handed game. in too many games you're going to end up 3-6 to the flop with hands that don't flop strong, OOP, in bloated pots. pretty much the nut worst result.
RE Miller/doug hull books.
they're all pretty good, but you have to take them with a grain of salt. they cherry pick hands that suit their examples and they have like 3-5 players who are contributing to the book to choose hands to pick from.
miller's hand reading book and playing the player are pretty important for a new players though. most people starting out really need to learn those skills and they help teach them. the earlier a player starts learning those skills the better
