 Hand 1: Villain was 25/5. This was the first time I played back to a raise because he was so tight. I want to say most of the 5 range came from him on the CO/BTN.

Button ($32.95)
Hero ($38.80)
BB ($19.85)
UTG ($52.40)
MP ($50.20)
CO ($48.40)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q, Q.
2 folds, CO raises to $1.5, 1 fold, Hero raises to $5, 1 fold, CO calls $3.50.

Flop: ($10.50) 9, 6, 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $7.5, CO raises to $43.4, Hero calls $26.30 (All-In).

Hand 2: nothing significant about villain here, except he's a shorty.

Button ($40.80)
Hero ($81.65)
BB ($10.20)
UTG ($57.15)
MP ($28.95)
CO ($51.10)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K, K.
1 fold, MP raises to $2, CO calls $2, 1 fold, Hero raises to $8, BB raises to $10.2 (all-in), MP raises to $16.2, CO folds, Hero raises to $71.5, MP calls $12.75 (All-In).

This is a 4bet, and a min-4bet at that. Is this ever not AA? At this point I'm essentially risking $20 to win $50. If he had pushed I would call in a second, but I feel he has tipped his hand.

First one you could maybe find a fold there with that guy's stats. You know the board didn't help him. I don't know if I could lay it down either.

Second hand, well, it's almost always AA....but gotta do it I guess.

Tough beats.
