 My image is Laggy and I have stolen a few pots from this guy, I think hes getting frusterated....(same villain both hands)
How's my line?
Do I raise or fold in any of these spots?

2nd hand I should have raised the flop, but every hand before this one he checked to me, so I was really worried about the King....turn brought flush draw so easy call, river he bet so weakly I felt compelled to call...thoughts?

From a vacuum, my standard play would be:

1st hand: fold the flop to his checkraise.

2nd Hand:
PreFlop:Why raise 3 BB? Raise 4BB. But thats just me.

Flop: Generaly fold or re-raise (75% fold, 25% re-raise). Remember, I am speaking from a vacuum. reads are very important. I don't like the call.

Turn: Reraise to Pot size, or Push. (Since you made it this far)

 I forgot to mention that I had a note on him that says "Bets every street very fast when bluffing" and this is exactly what he was doing. Plus he was frusterated with me after i stole 3-4 pots from him 5min before.....

So tell me why am I folding to his check Min raise in hand 1?

I usually do raise 4xbb at this limit, but I like to mix it up sometimes.
