I'm confused why you would bet the turn in hand 1. As played I'd probably bluff raise the river.

Hand 2 seems fine but river is insta fold

Re: Two hands that I\'m totally lost on. Help please.
 

1st hand - i am checking behind and call a reasonable riverbet.

2nd hand - looks like JJ just made his set

Re: Two hands that I\'m totally lost on. Help please.
 

HAND 1: Raise the flop or fold..I don't like calling because if he fires a second barrel on the turn, you are left wondering. As played, I check behind on the turn and fold to any reasonable bets...there's not much you're beating here when faced with agression.

HAND 2: Again, I would've raised the flop. Though I suppose calling isn't so bad in this case. As played, I probably fold that river
