Villain in both of these hands are the same.
Over 905 hands, villain is 30.6/26.59/4.85

We have played a LOT together the last week or so. He is very aggressive. I have seen him willing to stack off several times with top pair ace, weak kicker. He is definitely raising far more often than calling (both pre and post-flop).
He re-raises very light in late position. I have seen him recently re-raise K10s and Q9s on the button pre-flop, on a few tables.
He is also very capable of firing on two streets with a preflop raise, with A high or worse, but he is not a bad player. His aggression helps him win very big pots, when opponents push with even worse holdings.


Hand 1:

-I'm sure many ppl will disagree with me opening from this hand UTG, but try to look past this fact for this hand =)
-I hit flop VERY strong
-After villain's flop raise, its definitely a WA/WB situation, and I likely have no FE
-Is there a point to pushing on any street, given I have no FE, and we are playign reasonably deep? Villain WILL call, whether he is behind or ahead

Hand 2:

-Villain's re-raise on the button means little to me (given that I've seen him do the same with Q9 and K10 pretty recently)
-on the flop, I am confident that my 5's could still be ahead
-The turn doesn't change my read that I could be ahead, and gives me more outs
-how does this river play?
-does this hand play differently, given that UTG is all-in?
