The no-go list

I've taken a bit of a hammering in single draw (down $55 in 400 hands) but I've added a few more names to my "avoid" list, which will come in handy. My losses were a combination of a complete inability to hit anything, some unsuccessful bluffs on my part, and some aggressive play from my opponents that put me in some uncomfortable spots. I wish I'd saved a few hands other than these two which are almost low-content material:

Hand 1
This might well have been the biggest pot I won in those 400 hands:
