    Right here my thinking is that he obviously has trips, the only question is if he has a boat. I am pretty sure he calls with any ace, so I shove. I am guessing his ace range is A8-AK, but I am not sure he calls pre with anything less than that. I had him running 14/5/.4 over only 55 hands.

    Hand 1: I reraise more pre, especially because the SB raised and he obv has a tight raising range we want him to put as much money in early as we can and protect our hand. Oh and pretty much never fold AA in a reraised pot. In general i'd threebet a larger size pre, from a .75 raise i'd make it at least 2.75.

    Hand 2: Standard. Remember when you vbet you only need 50% of the hands he calls with... you have to be ahead of 50% of the hands he calls with.
