I'm not sure if I like the first one.. I wouldn't like folding a jack since you checked the turn and didn't protect.

Second one is fine.

1 - looks good. I suspect you belive he raises flop if he has AJ/JJ etc and therefore he cant call river with a one pair hand? My only concern at 2/4 is would you actually do this with the range you represent?

2 - Id prefer to c/r the turn here as if it all goes in you have outs and equity and your line is very scary. Also as you werent 3bet preflop id believe your opponents hand is quite weak and folding (incorrectly) to a c/r on turn

i'm confused by hand 1, you're repping mostly AcXc, AJ, and sets, yeah? Presumbaly going for a turn checkraise? Would you checkraise turn with TP+FD? Or with sets? Wouldn't you lead the turn mostly?
Also, since he checked back the turn, if you had the nuts would you really go for a river checkraise when he hasn't shown an interest in betting for you?

Hand 2 ok, but he doesn't have to raise at any point in this hand if he does happen to have a set so you they're still in his range at the river, also his range is Qx a lot and it's up to your reads if he'll fold Qx to the moderate sized river bet. Your line does look like mostly AQ or better which is good.

I like the 1st 1, but not the 2nd.

*Edit* On second thought, I like the 2nd 1, but I still like the 1st 1 more.

fwiw

first you're repping a pretty thin range that im not sure you play this way all of the time (AJ/66 sometimes/ often folded pre, AA/77/JJ may vbet river a lot etc, AQc/AKc bet turn a lot.) However given your image it would seem like he thinks you're incapable of doing this with made hands he has no option but to fold Ax which I guess is your objective here (if it was aimed at folding out flushes then idk...) . You certainly have more nut hands in your range than he does.. Also looking carefully at the converter it would seem that he folded - great success

2nd i like. I might bet a little more on the turn unless you were trying to keep more hands in to make the 3rd barrel profitable..?
