Hand 1: I think you should raise to about $28. I probably just put him all in on the turn.

Hand 2: I'm betting this flop. I think you can get rid of this on the turn on such a drawless board.

both hands are fine

imo hand 1 you could fire on the turn and say GG to QQQJJ or AJ but as played gotta fold river. hand 2 is almost always a good fold
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Hand 1: Shove turn, after re-raising KK I'm not looking for an excuse to fold unless an Ace flops.

1) bet turn and go broke there, river is a fold though


2) bet flop...these guys could have anything but as played you did just fine.

somewhat but its still most likely a boat. You really think he raises and calls a reraise with KT/T9 enough to make this river call? Or do you think TT/99 floated the flop to see if jeff had AK a lot and can now make this play? I definitely would not think you were retarded if you made this call but i think its -EV for sure
