Villain is the typical Crypto nut peddler. His stats were something like 20/10/2. I was torn between raising or pushing the flop but I had so many outs. I this standard against a tight opponent?

Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG with
Hero raises to $4, 3 folds, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: ($9, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $5, SB raises to $10, Hero raises to $50, SB calls.

Turn: ($109, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero is all-in $62.5, SB calls all-in $42.5.
Uncalled bets: $20 returned to Hero.

River: ($194, 0 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: $194)


Results:
Final pot: $194


Here villain had stats of 30/1/0.5. Quite passive and river raise kind of scared me.

Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with
UTG calls, 3 folds, 3 folds, Hero checks.

Flop: ($2.5, 2 players)
Hero bets $2, UTG calls.

Turn: ($6.5, 2 players)
Hero bets $4, UTG calls.

River: ($14.5, 2 players)
Hero bets $14, UTG raises to $34, Hero??

 Hey silu,

Can we get stack sizes on these hands?

I'd imagine a decision between re-raising and pushing in hand 1 depends on stack sizes.

Hand 2 is kinda odd. Its hard to narrow a range on him limping, since he limps almost all hands PF. I doubt he has a 2 here though, unlikely to have 72 or J2 UTG. Maybe he has 77.

Again, what are the stack sizes?

Hand 1: we both had a full stack ($100) but I had him slightly covered.

Hand 2: I had full stack (+$100), villain had about $80

hand 1 is fine, but I don't mind shoving the flop. if your gonna put in over half your remaining stack, why not push in the whole thing?

hand 2: there's no way you can fold this. calling seems weak. I think your probably ahead here, and I push this river.
