Two hands for review.

I've been making a lot of bad decisions lately. Please validate or criticize my thinking/decisions:

1. MP2 is suuuuuuuuuuuper laggy. He has literally been playing EVERY. SINGLE. FLOP.

BN is passive.

Is this a clear frop push? I reraised the flop planning to open-push a safe turn... which it obviously wasn't.

2.

CO is the same LAGGRO as in MP2 before. He's been hitting draws and inducing bluffs. He has called virtually every preflop raise and has been making frequent preflop raises regardless of position.

No read on BB. It's his 2nd hand at the table; first hand, he sucked out hard with a 4-outer on the river to crack a nutflush.

Do you hate the checkbomb? I thought it would be good enough to settle things and give me outs if they weren't...

1 - I'm never folding the turn.
2 - Buyin full. Bet, call, c/r... QQ no goot, draw may be no goot.. I'm out.

1. Lead flop for $2. Push over button's re-raise. Too many draws on the board to invite opps. to see the turn. Plus, I often push here with a strong draw so it's a nice balancing play.

2. Raise to $2 pre-flop. I'm fine with the check, and maybe a c/r if it's just you and CO, but as played I'm DONE with the hand after the bet/call/c/r sequence. You're probably behind and could be drawing dead.

Hand #1 - I probably push after Button's raise. On the turn you are 22% to improve. The pot is about $72 and you have to call $16.85. That's very close to exact pot odds. You should call this even if no one has any more money behind.

Hand #2 - Fold after c/r. You probably have to improve to win the hand and a Q doesn't exactly look like a clean out in this spot so you're basically on a 6-out straight draw. Don't go broke here.

1. Push flop after the other 2 players show they really like their hand. Might as well get it all in while you are ahead (if they have JJ, oh well pay them off). In general I like to get my $$ AI on the flop with sets when there is this much action.

2. Raise preflop to 2$. I dont like the c/r AI with the action on the flop.
