    I like how you played both hands at these stakes and I'm also hoping you won both
    I'll take a guess and say in the first hand villain has 2 spades in the hole and in the second hand AQo with the ace of spades.

    I thought I played them ok too and for the results oriented I didn't win either hand.

    You're not worried about a set here in hand one? I was but he ended up turning JJ and caught a J on the turn.

    I thought I did enough in hand 2 to represent big overpair at least but couldn't get villain to fold and he called with KJo. Whatever.

    hand 1 is good, but 2 I'd dump to his min raise.
    also something to consider is you'd have more chance to win hand 2 with that all in move if you have AQ or a flush draw than with TT.

    youre reraises are pretty big. r/r'ing 3x instead of 4x will let you keep the pot smaller as well as postflop bets smaller. As played, i would dump hand 2 to the min-raise, but hand 1 your not getting away from.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    In 2, you must be willing to pay off a J, and he should call you with any pair/draw. So I think it's fine.

    I disagree.

    In hand 1 there is a raise and a caller, so minimum raise should be 4x the original...which is what he did.
    In hand 2 villain is a big stack donkey; I always raise these type of players at least 3.5 to 4x.
