hand 1: villian is unknown. Do we have to call his river bet after calling turn raise in a 3 bet pot? The board looks scary though. Any thoughts on shoving on the turn vs an unknown player?

Hero (BB) ($100)

MP1 ($118.60)
MP2 ($253.25)
CO ($100)
Button ($100)
SB ($103.15)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, K

Hero bets $12, MP2 raises $25, Hero calls $13

River: ($72.50) Q (2 players)
Hero checks, MP2 bets $35, [i]Hero ?

hand 2: villian is an uber nit running 11/7/2. His 3 bet% is only 2%. Fold to cbet% is 75%. I dB on this nice board and hit my nuts flush but he snapped shove. weak tight and fold? The thing is I cant really see this guy ever slow play sets except 99.

What exactly are you afraid of in h1, I think you'll see AK here alot, though AQ is going to town you once and awhile of course. However you're getting a decent price on the river to look him up, I call.

For h2 It's possible he may have been waiting to raise the turn with a set but got scared that you wouldn't continue with worse with the flush draw completing. You said he snap shoved....and he's 11/7 calling your UTG raise..he has it.
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

1- This sucks. I think it's probably a fold but I call vs. a complete unknown. A few hands worth of nitty stats makes this a fold though.

2 - Snapfold. Is he the type of player to bluff here?
