shozboy1:
Hi, was wondering what people thought of the below hand? I repopped this guy "wading"s" button raise. He raises 60% of his buttons when folded to.
Was this overly aggressive? The game is full ring 0.25-0.50. Antes however in this are 0.1 which means there is often lots of action as pots are worth taking down preflop

Swinebag:
looks fine to me - though I think you should 3 bet bigger (say $4.50 ish) as your 3 bet pretty much compels the button to call.

rest of the hand seems fine

you won then got dogs abuse??

noble1:
i"d guess u won and villain has air or he had a flush draw...
i"ll be honest shoz and say i think it is horrible :)[if its a ""i feel i have to protect moment, rather than i"m doing it for value or image etc""] , its not a mtt, you don"t have to feel that u have to protect your blind,
if u feel like protecting in cash then protect your button, afterall this is the spot we make the most money, not the blinds :)
3bet a tad bigger pre, u wouldn"t 3bet size pre your top value range like this would u?
the line u take on the turn is a ""it depends on what reads u have and what tendencies villain has""  so without more info its tough to critique without a specific question from yourself...
obvious if someone is stealing alot, then widen that 3bet range, the range i"d do it would depend on how often villain is folding to 3bets, to cbets, reads, what my image is etc etc...

agree with this...

GarethC:
I don"t agree that you shouldn"t feel you have to protect your blinds in a cash game, that makes it sound like you"re just giving up with everything but premium hands when someone opens from a steal position. If there"s another option which yields a higher EV than folding all your trash hands, then you should do that, i.e. occasionally 3betting the loose openers.
