Perhaps I was a little strong on the first hand but I liked my hand although I would have liked it alot less if I knew the one guy had AA. But when it gets back to him I think he should lay that top set down in my opinion. Thought on that as well.

The second hand I just figured I had the best hand and the best draw against this guy who had been raising about 50% of the pots preflop and pushing his stack around. He had just lost a good chunk of it a couple of hands earlier and this hand stopped the bullying.

Hand 1.

Hand 1.

I'm folding this hand pre-flop 100% of the time in every position except perhaps the small blind in an unraised pot. You call and that's not terrible. You'll just need to proceed with the caution required of a marginal starting hand.

You flop a moderately strong two-way hand--bottom two-pair with the 2nd nut low as well as an open-end straight draw and a weak flush draw. This a very robust hand that should match up well against a single opponent. Against a field of opponents, you're going to have trouble withstanding much heat because this hand has 2nd best written all over it. That's why if you're going to proceed I like the raise to try to get it heads-up. When there's a cold-caller and the original bettor then pushes... Ugh. I would not feel good about things. Unless the villains are donks, people who are so willing to push in a 3-way pot like this probably have some of your draws counterfeited. I'd probably call, figuring the pot odds justify it, but I'd hate it and would curse myself for playing such a marginal hand in the first place.

Hand 1
Pre-flop
I don’t like that hand from MP. I may sneak a limp in from the button but not from MP.

Flop
I prolly fold to the first bet, but I guess raising is better then calling. One you raise, someone cold calls, and the PRF raiser / original bettor pushes you have to get out of the way. At that point you have to think your boat outs aren’t clean and it is likely the cold caller has some of your str8 outs. I think there is enough play left in this hand (you have only committed 1/5 of your stack) to get away from this one.

Hand 2
I like it. It is a high variance play but I think it is the right play.
