Is this an easy value bet here?

Re: Two 1/2 hands, advice please
 

Both hands are easy bets.

Re: Two 1/2 hands, advice please
 

Hand 1, Im also scared by this. Easy easy bet due to massive equity edge.

Hand 2, what has the T changed?

Re: Two 1/2 hands, advice please
 

Bet the first one and 3 bet if you have equity.

Bet/fold the second hand

Re: Two 1/2 hands, advice please
 

Yeah, neither of these are particularly close. Bet the first, bet/fold the river of the 2nd.

Re: Two 1/2 hands, advice please
 

Hand 2: The river puts 4 to a straight on the board. If I'm folding to a c/r then I understand the bet.

1:Reads? If you're at a very aggressive table, a check/raise wouldn't be too bad. Otherwise, I'd bet out here for value.

2:autobet

Hand 1: I recommend betting here. We're facing a huge field field here and a potential huge pot. The Flush draw gives you an excellent equuity edge so I think the bet here is correct. If any overcards fall our J's probably will not hold up in a field this big so I'm hoping a club falls as well.

Hand 2: I strongly recommend a river bet. I do not think our opp's have hit the gutshot otherwise we would have seen a bet on the river. This is an excellent value bet opportunity.
