My thoughts
Well I guess I thought the decisions were tougher than everyone else.
Hand 1, I think the chances are really slim that the all-in has AA or KK, the 2 hands I really dread, so I'd put him on 77-QQ or AK, AQ AJ. Based on that range I think the odds are right so I pushed.
My reall question here is whether or not you automatically take coin flips when you don't really have to. I find so often I build a stack by playing big pots almost always where I'm a big favorite, then I get to acertain point and play a coin flip. Do you automatically take slight edges for large pieces of your stack when you aren't in a desperate chip position?
Hand 2. If the guy who bet half his stack is any good, he has a monster, most guys with 6 BB's are pushing anything, but I guess a lot of average players make the smaller raise anyway. I folded this one, didn't feel like mixing it up, and I got all his chips on the next orbit.
