    I probably just fold hand 1. I dont expect a rock to show up with the J of hearts here very often.

    I think hand 2 is a fold if he bets given his stats.

    flop: well here's a pretty crappy lookin board. i'm gonna bet and try to take it down now. if someone calls, they're drawing to a flush.
    turn: yay i hit my flush. well, might as well value bet. ok, i got raised...maybe he's bluffing...maybe he thinks i'm bluffing. well, odds are decent to see what happens on the river.
    river: ok, so he bets almost 2/3. looks like a value bet. i'm probably beat. but i'm gonna stubbornly call anyways.

    hand 1 flop bet is fine i guess, but why call his turn raise?? you just said he was a rock

    hand 2 id fold turn because hes pretty tight

    hand 1- flop is marginal but ok, however in a limped situation i wouldnt put any money in this pot without hitting my flush and even then i would probably check one street. I think you overplayed this. turn is a clear fold btw.

    hand 2- fold turn, ur behind his range.

    hyper- these r both pretty big, basic mistakes btw which are probably hurting ur profits a lot long term if repeated...

    If he bets, I'd be pretty confident he had atleast 8. He will almost certainlay value bet all higher pairs expecting a call from 8x. I would expect him to check behind a hand like 55.
