#1 is a pf fold for me due to position and lack of reads (were there any?). Post flop looks ok. No reason to go nuts with such a fragile and likely-behind hand like that.

#2 looks like a spew to me, especially at 10nl, but if you post some reads or reasoning to it then maybe not.

OMG hand two is terrible - you will lose your stack three times as often as you win with it. At $10 and $25, a player who bets the flop hard, then calls two further bets, is extremely unlikely to fold when give 3:1 odds to call, unless you can be certain he's on a missed draw (in which case a check on the river is just as good).

um ya, I didn't notice the pot was at $11 when you bet $6.5 on the river in hand 2. To fold a hand like top or middle pair, which is a decent chunk of the range villain is repping, you usually need to take a line that represents something stronger and be against an aware villain (capable of folding these hands). So instead of a min raise flop, probe bet turn line, it should look more like how you bet an overpair, ie stronger bets.

As played the river bet is probably only folding a flush draw, as biondo wrote, this is lucky you got this time and there is a decent chance you already had the best hand. The line (and bluffing most 10nlers) is a spew at 10nl without a solid read because villains will call down with any pair a lot of the time facing these bets.

first hand I probably fold too.. Draws on the board plus your hand is vulnerable and may already be drawing dead to a set.

second hand if you're going to raise the flop, make it more than just a min-raise. I'd give up after he calls the first bluff.. If I even bluffed to begin with.

First hand preflop is fine. If I'm leading the flop I make it pot size. I often like a check here though, it let's the PFR'er cbet, we get to see what the other players do and re-evaluate. Versus this action it is a clear fold. (Is this is a case of having good relative position?)

PS we aren't drawing dead to anything, running quads anyone?

Oh and for results oriented, in hand 1 villains held 88 and TT. Weak laydown but at the time a $5 flop reraise just screamed set to me.

It was still a good laydown. In this you're usually either way behind or barely ahead of their ranges. Plus there is an active player left. Good laydown.
