    Hand 2 is well played IMO. I dont' think you get a fold out of K spades if you bet, and I don't think you get a call out of worse.

    Hand 1 seems a bit reckless. If he doesn't fold turn I can't see him folding river.

    Yeah hand1 seems a bit dodgy. Sethunting with barely rule of 10 is probably -EV vs a solid reg who isn't going to pay you nearly enough to make the call worthwhile.

    If you had position on him postflop I'd like it more.

    The turn: ok, we're probably chasing him off AK, as long as it's not AdKd. After he calls the turn, I think we've gotta be conservative and limit his range to JJ+ / AdKd, so I vote the river as spew...

    Hand2 I'm a little lost with no reads. Some villains I'll 3-bet preflop...some v's I'll value bet that river. No reads makes this hand tough and I guess I don't mind yer line as a default.

    1: Most has already been said. Fold preflop, c/f all streets post.
    2: I fire turn.

    hand 1: fold preflop ,please. I just cant see villain call your turn bet with less than AdKd on the turn.

    hand 2: Given his weak check line and unknown stats, i'd probably bet around $30 on the river and fold to any raise of course. Lots of unknown donks might call you with worse hands like Any top pair, straight or spades below Qs.

    weirdly I liked both, even if the first one is easily called spew and non standard.

    first hand could missed the check raise on flop - could have wanted to see the cbet, could be betting the draw on the turn. The fact he has just called our bet on the turn i discount nearly all large pairs and it so looks like AK calling with his ten outs and not AKd. The river bet has to work 40% (off my head).

    H1: Without a better read then that, it's a easy fold preflop.

    H2: Fine.

    Hand 1:
    I've seen this business from you before. You got history? Some timid players will call one bet and hope for a cheap showdown with AQ or something. You don't have the best hand, but maybe he'll fold. Not sure if it's enough.

    Hand 1: I'm never calling here pre-flop. If you think he's FoS make it $70.
