    hand 1: I'm guessing you called and he had the nut flush? Anyway, no you don't lay down the second nuts here.

    hand 2: I don't play 100NL but I don't understand your line there at all.. what weaker hand do you think you might be up against here?..

    Downswinging holla!
    Hand 1 is an easy call, maybe even a push.

    Hand 2 c/r flop is ok, but when he reraises it's an automuck.

    Hand 1: It's a call without a read. You might want to bet the turn btw (I'll probably bet the flop if it was 3-handed).

    Hand 2: Flop c/r is fine, although just calling is ok too. Automuck to his 3-bet.

    I call hand 1. What hand could he have opened raised from early position with that contains the king? KT .... from early position. He could hols QQ or AA and tried a terrible slowplay. He could also hold 44 and hit the straight. I just couldn't put any resepectable player on open raising in early position with a Kx suited when the A,Q,J are already on the board.

    For the curious, hand 1 I called and he showed some bs like K7s. For hand 2 I folded on the turn and he showed me 55. Needless to say that tilted me a bit and I ended up losing a buyin to him later.
