i think villain is a regular solid player.

he saw me show down this... and then 3 bet me two times when i raised in late position. he did it once from the button and once from the SB.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

SB ($23.50)
BB ($25.55)
UTG ($10)
MP ($10.45)
Hero (Button) ($9.85)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, 10
1 fold, MP calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.50, 2 folds, MP calls $0.40

Flop: ($1.15) 9, Q, 3 (2 players)
MP bets $0.70, Hero calls $0.70

Turn: ($2.55) 7 (2 players)
MP bets $0.50, Hero calls $0.50

River: ($3.55) 2 (2 players)
MP bets $2.20, Hero calls $2.20

Total pot: $7.95 | Rake: $0.35

then this hand. i just don't get why people shove a hand here that is a monster... when i look so weak. i guess he had a boat and was hoping i hit my draw?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

SB ($23.50)
BB ($2.30)
UTG ($25.90)
MP ($10)
Hero (Button) ($13.75)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8, 10
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.40, SB calls $0.35, 1 fold

Flop: ($0.90) 10, 9, 4 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $0.60, SB raises to $2, Hero calls $1.40

Turn: ($4.90) 9 (2 players)
SB bets $2, Hero calls $2

River: ($8.90) K (2 players)
SB bets $19.10 (All-In), Hero folds

Total pot: $8.90 | Rake: $0.40

are my calls on the flop and turn bad? im thinking he had a set or a draw on the flop check raise. so since the draw also completes its obviously a clear fold.... i just don't get his over bet.

jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
 It's not really an overbet.. you have about a PSB left on the river in your stack right? And I disagree that you look weak when you call a flop raise and a second barrel.. but I doubt he's considering how weak or strong you are, just that he has a monster, you called everything so far and he wants to get paid..

hand 1... this guy was a donk. .50 on the turn.... he had junk and thought i was drawing. i wasn't folding TP to this guy.

so i guess you think my calls on the flop and turn are bad in HAND 2?

I think your flop call is bad. If that specific turn card fell, in that specific situation, I think its probably a meh call.
