[MWC]

UB 20+2 NLHE MTT, 514 started, 50 places pay.

Background - since arriving at the table ~1 hour ago as the short stack, Hero has shown down the following hands: JJ (doubled up vs TT), AA (quadrupled up with vs AQs and TT), QQ (doubled up vs JJ), and KK (shown after reraising a 3xBB EP raiser who agonized before folding).

Hand 1: blinds 300/600, ante 50 (75?), 9 handed. 58 players left, 50 places pay.
Hero 18K, Villain 11.5K. Villain is EP raiser who laid down to Hero's KK reraise in the hand above.

Dealt to Hero [5d, 5s]. Hero (MP) open-raises (PSB, ~2500). All fold to Villain (BB), who calls.

Flop (pot ~6000) 622 rainbow.
Villain checks, Hero pushes, Villain goes into the tank before calling his last 9K.

Anyone like the push? As Villain, with what range of hands do you call?


Hand 2: blinds 300/600, ante 50 (75?), 9 handed. 54 players left, 50 places pay.
Hero 6600, Villain#2 11K. No particular read on Villain #2. Table has been a little bubble-tight lately.

Dealt to Hero [Ad, Qd]. UTG folds, UTG+1 limps, 2 folds, MP minraises (1200), 3 folds, Hero (BB) pushes 6600. EP folds, MP calls (getting 1.7:1).

Anyone else push? Too afraid of monsters? As Villain#2, with what range of hands do you make this call?
