hand 1 ... B/3B flop do everything u can to get all the money in asap.

hand 2 doesnt make sense. why did u just falt call the flop to raise the turn all in? when villain miniraises, u have to assume he is either bluffing or is doing it for value, right? So if you think he's bluffing, you should just call in order to continue to call in hopes of snapping off his bluff. if you think he is doing it for value (which he probably is) you should just raise and do your best to get it all in.

your line looks sooooooooooooooooo strong when u just call the flop then raise the turn. it looks like u have a T. This isn't what you want because it might scare away a king.

meeloche is on a distinguished road
1) You're line is the I have a fd and yah I hit it on the turn. He shoves anyway on a paired board and you only beat a bluff I'm folding.

2) You are not getting called by worse here very much. If you raise the flop he is calling with all his draws which he folds on the turn and every king. Try to get this in on the flop instead on the turn, especially this turn which kills your action.

Yeah, had I thought about it more in the 2nd hand I would have just called, as I was pretty sure he either had a king or was just fucking with me.
