2 $5 bubble hands

$5 tourny


Hand 1:
darkone was pretty aggressive post flop, got most of his stack from someone pushing JJ against his KK's preflop. I hadn't been very active so far, and with position decided to play for the pot.

The first hand I check behind, I don't think you'll be able to get much value out of this hand if you are even ahead. Not much will call you that you can beat, a kings lower than 8 will probably fold, as will jacks.

I probably push the aces in the 2nd hand. Four handed, AQ and 99 I think would both reraise. Maybe 22 or A9?

Hand#1: I would bet the turn to figure out where I stand.
I would check the river, you will only get called by a hand that beats you

Hand#2: I would probably get broke here too
