    first hand was unlucky... even if you lead out on the flop he is still calling you and catching on the turn

    second hand...not really sure what he was thinking calling the flop..looks like a pretty clear raise/fold situation to me

    playing the kind of hands like you did in the second one can be very profitable in 6 max if you know when to get away from them
