    Not thrilled about the call in hand 1. We should know what he had before we discuss nr 2.

    In #2 I like the turn bet but would c/f river. We should have established that he doesn't think you are folding much. I guess I don't hate it if you have timing reads etc. If he bluffed you again he's just really terrible imo.

    Yeah this seems like a river c/fold. He's probably raising his big draws on the flop considering he's somewhat aggro (or at least capable of running a bluff) and ppl don't bluff as much these days in these spots where it's so obvious that all the draws have missed and you're obviously looking to get to showdown. I remember the good old party poker days when everyone would shove their missed draws on the river but alas that's not now.

    Yah this all really depends what level you think he's on. If I just get caught in a big bluff with a reg/good player, I go out of my way to run a big bluff the next hand. Maybe I'm crazy, but regs are mostly on the level above, where they are like "wow he's not gonna bluff again, he'd be crazy to do that, I fold". They always fold.

    But I also agree with P4's that I don't think people are on my crazy level, and won't necessarily do that, so I'd fold.

    lol the bet-check level. I'm embarassed to say this has worked on me in the past. I'll just call it with my air to see what he has instead of following through on my bluff. It's probably one of the most tilting things that can happen that doesn't involve a suckout.
