    Default 10nl playing draws hard?

    ok, here are a couple of hands, the first is oesd + nut flush draw on the turn. The second I had TPTK and the nut flush draw. Thoughts on how these should be played?

    Hand 1)
    Prima Network No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed)

    Hero ($10.74)
    CO ($10.44)
    Button ($2.85)
    SB ($10.09)
    BB ($8.59)
    UTG ($7.61)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with [6s], [As].
    1 fold, Hero calls $0.10, 1 fold, Button calls $0.10, SB raises to $0.2, BB calls $0.10, Hero calls $0.10, Button calls $0.10.

    Flop: ($0.80) [Jd], [5s], [3s] (4 players)
    SB bets $0.3, BB raises to $0.6, Hero calls $0.60, Button folds, SB calls $0.30.

    Turn: ($2.60) [4h] (3 players)
    SB checks, BB bets $2.6, Hero raises to $9.94 (All-In), SB folds, BB calls $5.29 (All-In).

    River: ($20.43) [Js] (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Hand 2) note villain's stack size

    Prima Network No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

    Hero ($10.01)
    SB ($11.20)
    BB ($22.11)
    UTG ($5.27)
    MP ($34.79)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with [Kh], [As].
    UTG raises to $0.6, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.60, 2 folds.

    Flop: ($1.35) [7s], [Ks], [5s] (2 players)
    UTG bets $1.35, Hero ???

    If you are going to raise, raise the flop where you have the most equity.
    Personally I found at 10NL that you don't need to semi-bluff or push 50/50 edges. First make a hand, then slam it to them. They will pay you off enough, that you don't need to put money in bad to get paid.

    Players at this level cannot fold top pair or overpairs.

    Play your draws accordingly....

    getting my swell on
    I don't like PF or flop. Why would you limp A6 suited in MP? Next, raise flop, the minraise doesn't mean a whole lot.

    Hand 1 needs fold equity. You don't have fold equity.

    Hand 2 - reraise preflop! Get his stupid stack in! As played, instashove IMO.
