Hand 1 - he has something. He calls the flop since you cbet, and could just as easily have a missed AK. Scare card hits the turn and you check. He fires hoping to take it down. I see him having a heart draw more often then a K here. Raise.

Hand 2 - What I don't get is why SB cold calls on the flop. It looks like he has a lock on the hand and wants the most money from it. A2 or 44. He leads the turn on a non flush draw board. I find a better spot than this and fold

Thank you for the quick answer

In 1 I checked for pot control but then he bets half the potsize I thought that it would be to expensive to go to the river.

And in hand 2 after rethinking i came to the same solution.

Hand 1, don't check that turn, fire a second barrel. If he raises get out. You are playing this hand like a FD, you raise pre, C-bet and check a missed turn. Don't show wekness with JJ. You need dto know if your behind. Bet and fold to resistance. He could have Axhearts, AT, Kx. This hand is not over, but the check ends it quickly.

1. Call block bet the river. You could probably fire again here and get raised by a better hand, but i doubt its a better hand that often.

2. fold turn, i know it looks donkish but the guy has you beat or will spew his chips into you at a later date anyway.
