    In hand 1 I'd prefer to 4-bet all-in on the flop than call and check behind turn. Your line looks like air and will be looked up way way too much.

    Hand 2 I'm thinking where has my fold button gone. I had better press it quick before this donk stacks me.

    Your river bet in #1 sucks

    There is no doubt the river bet in hand 1 is not the best move ever made
    but what would you put dude on after that action

    I thought high prob of AX spades in which case i am behind but a bet wins

    as it turns out if he doesnt hit a card on turn that bet does win

    So we have seen his previous min raise mean nothing more than i am an idiot yet we are all going to insta fold here?

    Do we think the check min raise shows that much strength ?

    The river bet in hand 1 is horrific. What do you think you're representing with your line? I would call you with AK if i got to the river.

    .

    Your probably right a little ring rusty but the min re-raise i initially thought was real strength maybe an op

    I was so suprised by the turn AND river checks that i then changed my read

    If you really think that the min-raise in the first hand means the same thing as the min raise here then just 3-bet push.

    While I really dislike how you played the first hand, I think your biggest mistake in the second is that you haven't topped up to $100 before the hand begins. Your short stack reduces the range of ways that you can play the hand.

    Hand One, I prefer to check-call flop, but as you've check-raised I think the 4-bet push is the best line with 2 overcards and a flushdraw against a donkey who you could be ahead of already. if you're going to bet the river you should bet more, closer to full pot (40-45 maybe), as you will have more folding equity, but I think that most one pair hands are looking you up for anything less.

    Hand Two is a fold, but given the history and the size of your stack, I imagine you stuck it in and lost to Q4 or A8s.

    I had postion on both hands
    in hindsight the 4 bet in had 1 would almost defo have taken pot down
    At the time his reraise had me thinking he had a hand and his min raise of course priced in my flush

    I would normally agree with this logic but i felt that he was either calling or folding regardless of amount maybe with a busted flush or 88/99 and felt 20 was right size was obviously wrong here and 50 might have taken it down

    I dont want to harp on this but everyone is saying its a fold but why is it a fold ?

    what do we think he has that limps in CO and check min raises
