2 hands 100NL

At all of my tables, i was playing pretty tight and straightforward. I don't think i 3bet more than twice in this session (~400 hands and both 3bets were with legitimate hands) so i probably took reining in my 3betting too much. But my image should be solid.

Hand 1). Villain is 16/14 over 250 hands. He has not 3bet once the entire session, which all these hands are from.

Is float the flop and fold to a turn bet okay, given he hasn't 3bet at all up to this point? I really don't like my flop re-raise anymore, but i did it with the intention of folding to a shove (which may also be bad logic). I just don't know if he will trap with K-K+ to a re-raise or will felt it.

Hand 2). Villain is 20/18 over 70 hands. He has 3bet once or twice, but no hands went to the flop.

I am pretty sure i should have checked this turn with the intention of folding to a reasonable bet? Is c/c flop c/c / c/r turn a better line?

Hmmm medium made hands suck for c/r'ing flops?

Hand 1: I think calling flop is better than raising. Villain needs some balls to 2nd barrel AK and the only reasonable hand that calls and you beat is jacks.

Hand 2: You're afraid of KK/AA? You can't c/f this turn.
C/c flop, c/c turn is a better line imo.

Wish I had better advice, but this is pretty solid.
In hand #2, I think you can 3bet his raise PF if you like. Might help back him off and define his hand better. As played instead of a weak turn bet, I check behind. It will get you a wider range of calls on the river. Villain seems aggro and may bluff river or call you down with a worse hand if he perceives weakness.

hand 1: any reason you only raise to $3? I 4-bet here some, but since you havent seen him 3-bet in 250 hands its fine. c/c is a better line here on the flop, but what do we do when villain fires again? I assume he would always follow up on the turn w/ JJ, so it puts us in a tricky situation.

hand 2: 3-bet pre. 3/4 bet flop and push turn.

If you raise flop on hand 1 it shouldn't be w/the intent of folding to a push. If you aren't sure what to do if he shoves, just flat call.

Hand 2, if I c/r this flop it is w/ the intention of getting the money in, not to c/f on the turn. I don't like ur line though. 3-bet pf is much better, but since you didn't I'd prob c/c or lead flop, and same w/turn.

Hand 1: I 4bet this pre.
Hand 2: I 3bet this pre.

Do this and both hands will be a lot easier to play imo.
