1 ummm yeah totally standard except preflop is probably bad with this villain on the button. Also betting more on the flop will mak it harder for villain to lay down marginal hands on later streets.
2 all in, bet slightly more on turn vs. this villain.

Good call.

Hand 1: I don't mind preflop so long as this raise takes into consideration an already built image as a tight player preflop. Flop looks standard and so far so does turn. I'm shoving over turn minraise because a lot of hands call that are weaker than ours that would also play this way. I don't see how calling is an option unless we think villain is making a move and we expect to c/r river.

hand 2: Standard again. I'm raising back over the top after this min raise by villain on river. Assume villain has finally rivered their straight.

Thanks guys. I thought these were relatively standard.

This is just a standard "I'm on a cooler and am starting to question my 'standard' play" post.

Villain had 44 in h1 and As4s in h2. Sometimes I hate the variance involved in gamb0ling vs villains with wide ranges, but uhhh....that's poker fer yah? ;)

Stop playing unsuited crap like suited connectors.

:lol:

I've actually started tightening up more preflop. Running more like 16/13 instead of 19/15.
