    1 - Leading flop/checking turn is a line I am trying to remove from my game. It seems weak to me IMO. If you aren't beat on the turn, I think you are by the river.

    2 - You got pwned! Nah jk, that was a bad card to see. Preflop I make it $3-$3.5 to go, your raise was small for 3 callers. Tough turn to play here.. any reads on him?

    Hand 1: I agree that leading flop and checking the turn seems very weak, but what would u recommend, firing again. If so, for how much. And if he raises, what then? Or do u think i should go into check/fold mode?

    Hand 2: No real reads, it was pretty soon after i sat down at the table, but i was putting him on a hand like a10 or ax in diamonds. I think calling his raise seems very weak too, even though it was only a reraise. I think my best line other than folding would be to reraise repping ak or something, but that seems very risky, and he would certainly be calling with a10 and possibly with ax diamonds.

    hand 1 bet the turn

    I put him on a jack here and I'm staying with that opinion unless and until he does something to change it

    hand 2

    raise pre flop a lot more. At my limits I'd do raise 6BB, and at $50NL I'd pump it to $4. Being OOP sux, and I'm going to make them pay to have position on me. If I take it down now, that's fine by me. Remember that the average KK wins 2 Big Bets and here you have that in the pot already

    I'd check the turn and call, trying to keep the pot small and if the river is safe check/call again. Reads are also good... you'd like to know it villain is someone who will chase overcards to an 80% pot bet
