Just moved up to $50NL 6max for the 3rd time this year, and stil feel like there are huge holes in my game, heres a couple hands.
This one involves my pocket pair and a continuation bet by the original raiser.

Made a min-raise to scare him, usually people hate min-raises. He thinks for a while then calls.

BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $10</font>, BB calls $41.85 (All-In), Hero folds.
Only bet half the pot, should I have bet more?
Final Pot: $75.10
It seems like the original raiser must have had AQ or overpair. I folded in part because there were two flush draws on the board.
Next hand...

I did not represent a flush, since I had semibluffed on the flop. Was this just too weak a fold?
Final Pot: $66.50
