    Nice suckout fish? J/K
    It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
    Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

    well in both hands I believe they made incorrect plays, in the 1st one, It occured that he may have hit his straight, but he only miniraised me. So I still had the correct odds to draw to the flush on the river even though the probility of that hitting was lower because of only one card to come.

    Second hand, he freakin limped aces UTG, dumb play imo. No way did I put him on AA there, def didnt put him on a hand like 68 b/c I held 88s, maybe an over pair but the way he played it again didnt make sense so I called.

    1st hand - if both of you were deepstacked, this is pretty standard. your getting 4/1 odds and it looks like you'll be getting all his chips if you catch. I still think its an ok call, 4/1 odds is enough even if villian barely has any chips after the turn

    2nd hand - you could put utg on overs and a flush draw after he calls your flop bet. betting the turn is ok by me, but after he raises you I think its time to let go

    tell me what hands make sense that he's playing with on the 2nd hand that you fold to his miniraise i think it was

    Limping UTG with big hands is a very very common move. And it is also a very good move at an aggressive table where you an expect to get raised at least 3/4 of the time.

    So I put him on an over pair, 2 pair, or a set as his most likely holdings with that minraise on the turn.
