What the hell is going on here?? Have you all lost your minds?

Hand 1: Don't fold on the flop. I feel like giving you bad advice just to punish you for having considered it. In a more constructive vein. The raiser probably has a set or two pair, or a pair of 6s or some crazy hand. The cold caller probably has a J (if you had the nuts, why would you flat call here when everyone else is so excited about getting money into the pot??). You shouldn't just call because many cards can beat you. you need to make a big raise, and call an all-in. quit talking crazy

Hand 2:
The raise is probably better than the call, because you need to shut out a flush draw. If you get reraised, push it. Don't think twice about it.

A more general comment:
Your style of play is far too tight. I suspect that you're either inexperienced or playing above your level. Dial it back a few steps and see what kind of hands people win with. Very rarely will they be the absolute nuts. Also, for consolation, look at the zany hands people manage to get all-in with. It's true that hands like bottom set or the idiot end of straight can lose, but the winning play is to shut your mind to that possibility and focus on getting the money in.
