Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point

Hand 1 is an easy shove imo (gg if he has the case 9 or 33 but an aggressive player can just be recklessly pricing himself in here with a big overs + FD type hand)

Hand 2 is gross. dunno what I'd do or what to tell you

when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Thanks for the reply genitruc. anyone else?

Does everyone raise with trip 9's there, or is flat calling to keep worse hands in a better play?

Hand 1: Against a nit a fold but against a guy with those stats I might just shove

Hand 2: Fold and spew

Hand 1: push and give him a pat on the back if hes got 33 or the case 9

Hand 2: Looks like a missed draw trying to make a play or a poorly played set im thinking a set and i probably fold its close though IMO

hand one -- puuuuuush and feel great about it

hand two -- puke in your mouth and fold

in hand two you could have checked/called (on the river), I do this sometimes with big one-pair hands...

Pretty much what everyone else said. Push hand one, and two is a cake fold.

I'd cry/call hand 2. some fish like to min raise bluff rivers when you bet like that.
I agree with gabe on bet sizing though since he's soo bad or maybe c/c the river.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Its good to hear that most of you push hand 1. I wasn't sure if I should be more worried about being outkicked. But yah, I pushed the turn and villain called with 33.

Hand 2: I have a veeeeeeeery hard time folding to these weird raises in weird spots by fish. Partly cause I am waay too curious to see just how the fish screwed me this time lol (huge leak yah) But he raised and I called and he had 34 for the rivered straight, blah.
