So far I've just skimmed. People complain that it's math heavy but I think it's a pretty easy read. I'll be chewing over it all this weekend.

I think on the first one I'd bet more like $40. I think Opp has two pair.

On the second one $40 sounds about right, he most likely has some sort of overpair here. a pot sized bet may also get called, If you have a read that he thinks your lagg an all in may make him percieve a bluff.
