TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
 Hand#1: I like the PFR, I think you bet too little on the flop, you need to bet at least 2/3 pot to scare off the draws.

Hand#2: i would fold preflop. I would also check-raise the flop and not smooth call it. You have a very good but vaneruable hand

 Hand histories got kinda garbled.

Hand one I was heads up with the maniac when we saw the flop. I bet 1/2 pot which is enough to discourage a draw (to which he has few outs anyways). I also felt he may well come over the top of a "small" bet, allowing me to get it all in.

That second hand isn't a very good one, but I'll try to see a cheap flop with any kind of nut draw. Again by the time the action got back to me on the flop I was heads up again. I figured his most likely holding was 2xxx (or even a flush draw) and I was going to let him hang himself.

Knowing that the player in HH#1 is a maniac, I like your line on both.
