Two for Review.

[spacemonkey57]

Flop and turn are easy. He liked the ace on the turn but not enough to three bet. I had him on the ace on the turn, but if he's got the balls to bet into that board on the end I'm worried about the boat.

As for hand two, how is the fold on the turn? I wasn't folding for one bet, but I didn't want to cold call two and get shown the other five. Thanks.

Hand one: I like everything. There is a good chance you are beat by the full house here -- SB could have completed with AX where X = 7, T or J. I could not fault a reraise here too much, but he's not folding and you might get 3 bet, and if you do you are probably beat. I would have played it the same.

Hand 2: I think you make a good lay down.

Opponent likely has trip Aces. The only hands you're afraid of are A7, AT, or AJ. Given your opponent is playing out of a blind, I'd be thinking Ax where x != 7 and x != T. Therefore, raise the river. If he/she is full, so be it...it happens.
