Ok so both these hands were against the same villain. Villain is very aggressive/loose. I am wondering if I'm loosing value on the hands with my reraise. I dont think he has much in both cases but i still dont want him making his hand on the turn/river. I find the best players always maximize the value they get out of every hand and it's something I'm really trying to work on. Feedback would be greatly appreciated, did I maximize the value in both hands or should I have just called instead of reraising?

(he has caught me making c-bets before which is why bet the flop in hand 1 and I didn't reraise from the BB in hand 2 because he usually gives up when i repop his buton steals preflop so i was trapping a bit. )

No way, you should never call either of those situations; both hands are fine.

3-bet KK pre-flop.

hand 1: 85% of the time you should be raising the turn basically like u did.

Hand 2: 95%+ of the time against a button raiser you should be 3-betting ur KK preflop. As played against typical opponents I think you should lead out on the flop for like 5.

I love leading sets into aggro opponents. I weak lead like $3ish into that pot. (Hand 2)
