And yeah, hand #2 I don't like either. The thing is, I thought it was possible he could peel the flop with a PP. But the c/r is bad because he's not going to bet that turn with them. I'm pretty sure I get owned by a flush way too much with the line because when I looked back I honestly wasn't sure what I could expect to get called by that was worse.
But now nuts and mass say they like hand #2. I wonder if they could elaborate as to why? Is it just under the assumption that since this guy likes to win pots it's likely his range is wide enough that I actually am against lesser hands often enough?

Hand 1 - I like the flop bet and the turn bet. I'm just not sure about the shove once he raises. If he had flatted the turn, I might have even shipped the river (bluff obv), but his turn raise changes things.
Hand 2 - Yah I agree with your logic about pocket pairs checking the turn. Whereas a lot of pairs with a heart might peel another turn bet. I guess I'm betting here very often on the turn, but am interested in hearing the benefits of c/bombing here. (other than the obvious one of making $ of his floats+bets, but we also free-card lots of midpairs with hearts)
