    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    Hand 1 I call. Think villain puts you on AK. Villain AJ more often then JT here.

    Hand 2 I fold, don't like it, but do it. Classic set line. TPTK small pots good.

    1. I raise more pre and cbet a little more. Fold river.

    2. Very close but I lean toward a fold b/c JT is in his range, along with sets and draws obv.

    Hand 1 : Yeah this is a fold you're beat here almost always

    Hand 2 : Another fold me thinks.

    1. Fold. Folding aces HU makes me so happy every time, don't know why...

    2. This is why I like to c/c turn with any good hand that cant handle a raise. I fold knowing im very often ahead.

    As much as it hurts but both hands are fold. Especially Hand No 1. Hand 2 is marginal but if he has been quiet so far I fold.

    having sucked recently i think both are folds, 1 especially. If the J hadnt hit the river id have called slightly more as it takes away opp having more two pair combos in his range as well as the flush.

    Both look like folds to me. Hand 1 is a sick bluff if he s bluffing...

    Hand 2 is JT or a set almost always unless you ve beenway out of line and he s picking a nutty spot to fight back.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Hand 1 is probably a fold. If I was on tilt I might raise all-in as a bluff.

    Hand 2 is also a fold.

    I agree with everyone saying both hands seem to be folds.

    For everyone saying hand 1 is a fold, if the turn was the instead of the , and the action was still the same, should we still be folding here?
