I sat down at 2 PLO $100 and 2 NL $100 5-max tables. Both hands are from one of the NL tables. I have no reads or notes on the players and the first hand happens pretty early.

Hand #1
I've got JJ in the BB, two limpers and the SB completes. I raise to $6 and the SB is the only callers (perfect, only guy I would have had position on). Effective stack size = $80.

Flop comes QJ8 rainbow. SB checks, there's $14 in the pot, I bet $9 hoping to pick up a loose call. He calls.

Turn is a T, putting a club draw out (I got no club). Now he leads out for $11.

So he's now repping the straight, or something like two-pair with QT I guess. I want to raise but with one card to a straight out I finally decide to just call, and just call again on the river unless it pairs.

River is an Ace, and now SB checks. I valuebet $31 figuring him for something like KQ or QT.

Hand #2
Against same guy later, effective stack size = $100.

Now I know he's very loose and seems bad. Basically he is my target.

I've got QQ utg and make it $4. Target is the only caller from the BB.

Flop comes K78 with a heart draw, I have the queen of hearts.

He checks, I bet $7 and he flat calls. I figure him for a draw. Probably the flush, but could be the straight I guess.

Turn is a brick, the 3 of spades. He checks.

Here I would normally check behind, but having watched a Green Plastic video I decide to bet for value and to make him pay to draw. I bet $26.

River is the horrible Ace of hearts. He leads out for $12 into the $52 pot. I really feel I am beat here but can I fold getting those pot odds?

I don't see the I the point in the weak flop bet in hand #1. What is gonna give you a "loose" call there? The flop hits your range hard so you're not getting a call for 77, and there's a good amount of draw so bet it hard.

You should bet that turn almost always with the QQ. If he has a K you're gonna give him a street of value on the river anyways.

hand 1 you don't really want him to have KQ there cause he would have a str8.
I might just check behind, since it's early and you don't have a good read at the point, I would not like a CR from him in that spot, so
hand 2 for that price, I call at least to get some more info on him

If I get check/raised in hand #1 I am folding.

Results:

Hand #1 - He had A9o and won

Hand #2 - He had [9h] and won
