UTG+1 ($5.05)
MP1 ($40.55)
MP2 ($9.30)
CO ($8.25)
Button ($28.55)
SB ($9.75)
BB ($25.25)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q.
Hero raises to $1, UTG+1 calls $1, MP1 calls $1, 4 folds, BB calls $0.75.

Flop: ($4.10) J, J, 5 (4 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls $1, BB folds.

Hero bets $2, MP1 calls $2.

River: ($10.10) A (2 players)

Final Pot: $15.10

At another table same time and only at the table for two hands then:

hand #2
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

CO ($23.95)
Button ($7.55)

Preflop: Hero is SB with J, J.
UTG raises to $2, 3 folds, CO calls $2, 1 fold, Hero calls $1.75, 1 fold.

Flop: ($6.50) 7, 8, 8 (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $6, CO calls $6, Hero ????

Hand #1 i now see that i probably should have bet more, but i wanted to hear what you guys thought.
Hand#2 Normally this is an instafold but i look at history and see that he bet the same way three hands prior with the same bet sizes only to have the others fold...

Hand 1: If you're gonna bet, make it meaningful. At the $25 tables, you're getting no fold equity from a $1 bet into a $4.10 pot. I recommend $2.5-$3.00 here.

Hand 2: This is a scary situation. But with a bet this big and a caller in front, I'm inclined to dump this hand.

I agree with nat, but one thing I noticed is that you bought in short for these tables. Never buy in short, if you cant afford to play with a full buy in then move down in stakes.

Thanks for the advice, for superstitious reasons when i first start the night, both tables i start at 12/22 or 13/23. Usually doesnt take me long to get past the 25/50 mark. It has become a habit after one night starting off at both tables, i lost my AA and KK (3 hands apart diff tables) to players i had no read on and losing close to $50 before "getting warmed up". Thank you .
