    Default 2 rather interesting spots today

    Hand1:
    Villain is running at 30/7/1. He's l/c from the SB before with QQ. And I wasn't quite sure what to take the overbet as apart from the fact that he's prolly gonna be putting all his money in on a future street.

    Hand 2: I think I played this hand pretty horrible... Villain is 73/17/1.13 and I dunno whether he has any idea of what he's doing but he sure got me confused here...

    Hand 1: Personally I'm folding. I'm not sure what his holding could be and I'm far from committed to this pot. When in doubt and small pot, I fold.

    in hand 1 I ship it in
    this bet sizing polarizes his range to nuts and draws
    his nuts are: {JJ+, 33, 44, 34}
    draws are: {XcYc, 56, A5, A2}

    doesn't seem like I'm in trouble that much and he pretty much has to call a shove with a draw so we're getting it in OK
    I'd like a read on his post-flop play, I'd fold if he were a passive fish
    AF of 1 doesn't really say anything it could be anything between 0.6 and 1.4

    i'm interested to hear people's thoughts on hand 1. I know that i fold in this situation, but i hate just assuming that i should give donk bet credit (if it were three cards below ten i'm either calling or even raising as a bluff if it weren't 2x the pot).
    hand 2 i'm probably not betting the full pot on flop in turn, if for no other reason, then to merge with my Cbetting range. because the board is double-suited on the turn, it's definitely +EV to bet out again, so i don't think you played it horribly.
