[MrTeddyKGB]

reads?

[Bill Smith]

Hand 1: If MP is the type that will always play back in a heads up situation and almost always do so by bluffing the turn, then call it down. Otherwise, it's a lay down.

Hand 2: Tough one with a guy all-in. I think this is okay unless Button is crazy.

[Mr. Graff]

Hand 1: The opponent would have to be very LAG for me to call this down. The pot is small.

Hand 2: Very read dependant. You are getting approx. 7:1 and you have 4 outs which isn't enough. But given that MP is shortstacked button could very well be trying to force out a hand like yours with a Q or K. If button is tricky and capable of plays like, calling the turn (and the river no matter what card comes) may be +EV. On the other hand, when factoring in the chance that MP has you beat, I'm really not sure it is worth it. I'm leaning toward folding.
