1. This guy was a 7/0 but only after 20 hands. On the flop I put him on AK/AQ/any PP. When he checks the turn I discount an overpair because I would image he would double barrel it with me just calling. Once the 8 hits I think he'll either pay me off with a random overpair that he just got passive with or will mostly fold. When he raises though all I can think is "dammit maybe he does have QJ/better set because those should be the only hands that raise me on this river". So yeah I have to kind of go against my original read based on the river action.

2. In this hand villain was pretty competent and was playing 26/22/3 over a small sample of around 100 hands. CO was also pretty competent and stole a good amount. The thing is that SB was 3betting around 8% so I think he has a pretty tight range when he just flats preflop. I put him on a mid PP and some broadways that do not include AK and sometimes AQ. I was going for a c/c on the flop as I imagined this flop would be one that the CO would cbet almost always. The turn weirds me out because I have TPTK with a good flush draw and am getting c/r so I put him on maybe AdJd/KdJd/JdTd/at the time I put him on somehow a set but I highly doubt that due to sizing and preflop/QxJd/KdQx. There's probably some other combos I am missing. Anyways, I elect to flat with good odds. My plan on the river is to call a smallish-half pottish bet but anything bigger would definitely seem like a value bet and never a bluff because I think he'd get somewhat scared and if he did bluff he'd most likely make it smallish to fold out everything in my range that does not contain a diamond.
