Hand 2

If you want to limp and see a flop then limp. If you want to raise (presumably to knock people out) then raise a meaningful amount. At these stakes thats probably going to be around 10c - 12c.

Postflop is fine. You had a hand, they didnt, they folded.

My suggestion for KJ is to fold in early position, limp in late position (when there arent many people left to act who could raise) and only continue if you hit a K or J or straight draw on the flop.


edit: also consider using the hand history converter. It hurts my eyes less
if he's playing by aok's rec these are both limpers.
hand 1, the very idea is to rep random 2pair or set, thereby stealing. doesn't work here, so turn is an easy checkfold.
hand 2, standard

aok's stuff is about making your decisions easier. you can bet confidently with KJ when you pair up and the pot's unraised.
