    Default Two 25NL Hands

    Ok heres two situations I got myself into today whoring Paradise Poker (soooo much slower than Party Bonus) where I really didnt know what to do. No reads on either hand

    Hand 1

    When I get cold-called on a c-bet, I think I worry too much about draws. When the club hit and he led out VERY weakly, I thought maybe it was some lame attempt to get me to raise him. I'm thinking the proper play here would be to raise/push and pay if he has a flush, bc a lower set may make a similar move? Like I said, fishy turn bet scared me.

    Hand 2
    I think this was a donk move on my part, but I wanted feedback on whether I am overanalyzing situations or not. So I've finally progressed to the point where I am getting better at laying down overpairs, TPTK to obvious sets. This hand baffled me tho, I couldnt understand what hand min raises the flop, then bets the pot on the turn. Usually with sets I would see a smaller bet, maybe 1/2-3/4 size, to induce a call from overpairs. Unless he was afraid of draws... anyways all comments on the proper way to play are appreciated.
