Ok two hands from tonight in which im conflicted on how well I played. These are at hollywood poker and configuring PT with the new upgrade has been a hassle so I have no stats on either players just reads(basically arche-typing) but I pressed previous hand and thankfully got the hand histories.

hand 1: My question here are is the re-re raise a good amount? Then should I have pushed in response to the small stacks push? My logic in not pushing after the small stack pushed was to preserve future action. I was being greedy hoping that one of the two players before me would bet the turn and I would then push and triple up and then some.

Hand 2: On this hand should I have re-raised preflop to narrow down the field? Here I made a pretty risky call on the flop. Villain had been playing a lot of hands real hard and had lost 50% percent of his stack a few hands before calling down a shorty with 2nd pair bad kicker. Based upon that information I relucantantly called expecting 66 or 88 but was ok with actual outcome.

I like the way you played both of them. I dont think the flop all in call in hand #2 is risky at all. Actually, I think its an instcall.
