These hands happened in the same orbit. My read on Villain is loose preflop, but not horrible after the flop. Where do I give him credit for the goods?

First Hand:

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
<font color="666666">6 folds</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="CC3333">SB <font color="purple">(Villain)</font> 3-bets</font>, BB calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (9 SB) 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Villain bets</font>, BB calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">Villain 3-bets</font>, BB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (8 BB) 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Villain bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (10 BB) 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Villain bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 12 BB

Villain shows K /images/graemlins/club.gif2 /images/graemlins/spade.gif and mhig.

This one is pretty straightforward. Would villain have called down here if I hadn't shown so much aggression on Hand One? Is it worth it to occasionally show down a crappy hand to create an overly aggressive image?

If the villain is coldcalling with K2o in MP, I don't think showing down bad hands can make him play much worse.

Fair enough. How would you play the first hand?
