Two hands, both from Absolute NL50, hand history is messed, so this is from memory, bet sizing could be slightly off.
Hand 1
I have about $65, villain covers.
Villain raises $2 from the CO, I call with 5 A heads up to the flop
Flop comes 6 3 3
Villain bets $2, I raise to $6, villain reraises to about $20, I push.
Hand 2
I stacked villain my first hand at the table when we got it all in preflop KK vs QQ. Since then I've been very active, he's limp called a couple times with suited connecters and low pairs.
Villain has about $35, I cover
I raise A 6 from the button behind a couple limpers, everyone folds except villain.
Flop comes 5 6 7
Checked to me and I bet 3/4 pot, villain calls.
Turn brings 6
Checked to me again, I bet 3/4 of pot again, villain pushes.
On this hand, the flop hits villains range pretty hard, but I felt like I couldn't fold given my image and the fact that I had a pretty strong hand.. I dont know. Thoughts on both hands are appreciated.

Hand 1: I'm not sure about this. Isn't this only good if we have fold equity? I don't think we have fold equity here.
Hand 2: I think a call is fine here. He could be repping a 6, since he doesn't put you on a 6.

I agree, there is probably very little folding equity, but what do you think the best play would be after his reraise? I don't think he's folding much, but I think he does enough to make this a worthwile play..

FOLD and think aloud: "nice bet, but you're not getting paid by me."
FWIW, you are an underdog to any holding that 3bets that flop including any horrible player with a 6.

On hand 1 i would have to know the villian could actually make a fold to make this play.
On hand 2 you are calling so fast.

Hand #2 is a call against a fishy villain that is mixing it up with you. I am much more likely to see a fish play something like Q6 or an overpair this fast.
Oh yeah, and I always factor in at least 10% chance of a bluff.
