    Hand 1: Every time you open-limp in a game that isn't full of really really retarded players, baby Jesus cries a little. Bet more on the turn too.

    Hand 2: I 4-bet that flop against that player, fail that I shove the turn.

    Anosmic,

    Hand 1: Bet $19 on the river, and get a weak call wrong TP.

    Hand 2: 4-bet flop, only hand you are afraid of here is AA and that hand isnt very likely. Build the pot on the flop, if he just calls your 4-bet, then push turn. Dont bet worried about the 3rd flush-card hitting the turn, you dont have to worry about flush draws in raised pots like these.

    Anosmic,

    Dependant on the limpers I might just raise weak limpers preflop to steal the pot preflop or steal it on the flop by c-betting against someone limping weak PPs.

    Villain in one had top two-pair.

    Second one I felt and idiot in retrospect. But I have trouble with this aggression... maybe I play too much limit...
