Re: 2 hands - a low PP and a draw
 

the first hand i would think about folding before i would raise that much. i look at med. pp's, especially early on in a tourny as playing only for set value, thus you would want to encourage more limpers and see a flop as cheaply as possible. as with the second hand, it doesnt really look like you are getting the odds to call on the turn with only one card to come. i would probably let it go and find a better spot. looks fine other than that.

First hand fold pf. Second hand I fold to the big reraise on the turn unless I'm certain that villain will pay me off if I hit my flush.
