jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point

1. First hand at the table. Flop and turn there isn't much value in raising I think. River I lead into him for half pot, intending to fold to a raise. I figure my hand is pretty clear by the river and he's just going to check back everything I beat. Thoughts?

1. do u have any reads? this should be between c/c and c/f against all but the worst opponents. given how crappy this line plays out with as strong a hand as you have, you should be choosing between leading and checkraising the flop.

2. check the turn

My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

No reads I just posted my blind, but yeah c/c up to half pot and c/f to higher maybe? For an alternative line, I guess I could c/r to $8 but then I'd have to pretty much c/f the turn as he's not gonna continue without Kx (a decent part will have me outkicked) or the flush, right?

Hand 2 is looking really stupid to me right now, to randomly double barrel in a multiway pot here, ugh.. I had been playing too much HU I guess.
