    Two hands where I messed up

    Guy had not played much, tightpassive I guess
    running 10/5 over 41
    What worried me was the rasie on the turn I did not know how to respond.
    Range AJ,KQ,JJ,99,JT,9T maybe two diamonds or unlikely 33

    Turn: ($2.75) 3 (2 players)
    Hero bets $2.50, CO raises to $6, Hero ?

    HAND 2
    villian was active,stealing from the button
    Called the flop because villain is probably firing every board
    with his entire range
    The turn I just felt like being crazy and re raising him trying to steal the pot from two overs or a weak pair
    plus I picked up some outs, He insta shoved.

    OK, so please tell me what our action should be on the turn
    Hint: he's not folding a shove

    That is what I am having trouble deciding.
    Calling is still going to get me all in. I call I would have 3bucks left with the pot of 14
    So out of Call/Shove/Fold
    I say shove, I don't expect him to fold 2pair,TPTK anyways

    so what is your question again?

    Hand 1: With such a tight-passive you could also have QQ, KK, or (unlikely) AA here which you're also ahead of.

    What iopq was getting at - you're ahead of nearly the whole range you put the villain on, so why are you worried about getting it in? The only two hands in the range you gave that beat you are JJ and KQ (and you have outs vs KQ). Shove and be happy with it.

    Hand 2: You've put in half your stack already and now you're looking at an awkward decision with only 4 outs to improve. If you often end up in spots like this you need to ask where it all went wrong.

    Next time you're raising with air to snap off a suspected bluff do it on the flop, not the turn. That way you can avoid getting so pot-stuck.
    Congratulations, you've won your dick's weight in sweets! Decode the message in the above post to find out how to claim your tic-tac

    Well I did shove on hand one
    good to know my decision was ok.
    Second hand is a spot I should have not been in anyways
    bad play by me.

    Hand 2)
    Doesnt he have 12 outs with the flush draw?

    Not that it changes things all that much

    if you're playing back in hand 2, i'd rather raise flop or as played just call turn.
