Thanks guys for the insight! It really helps because I am unsure on if we should just post in the short handed forum or wherever as opposed to this.

1. This guy was playing 20/19 over 85 hands and had minraised the BU before and has shown to be positionally aware. He was 2/2 cbetting.

Preflop I put him at a range of probably 35%. I flat with good odds plus a pretty strong hand vs. his range.

Flop is weird. He is probably cbetting his entire range. Raising should be +EV but I kind of think calling is more +EV because he'll probably play with an exploitive range of checking back turns if he has air. In any case, I go ahead and raise.

When he just calls on the flop, I put him on an overpair/a smallish T like T9/JT/QT/T8...to be honest I think he gets those in a lot on the flop due to 25NL assumptions. He can also have TT or 66 which are highly unlikely. Because his range is narrowed so much, I think with a hand like the nut flush draw should be played as a call on the flop and we should be c/r the flop more with less equity type hands. Anyways, I go ahead and fire turn in case he has an overpair and I assume he'll just fold.

River, since he just called turn, I think he definitely has either 66 or a T. I think river is a c/f.

2. Villain is running 40/33 over 50 hands. I honestly think preflop should just be a 3bet/get it in. This is probably standard for most but I want to look at it deeper.

Preflop I think he can have a lot of Ax...basically any. Most he'd felt preflop. He can also have any PP and like KQ/KJ stuff. I flat because both blinds are huge fish.

He had cbet 7/8 times so I imagine he cbets most of his range here on the flop. He only connects with 33/77/A7. I think I am ahead a lot so I flat.

Turn brings me gin and because I feel like he'll fold a lot if I bet plus he is far behind me a ton I just elect to check back and fire river.

River connects with TT/AT/KT type of stuff. He can still have worse Q's. I just shove due to his short stack.
