Hand 1: SB is solid, other two are super loose, play slightly better postflop, i.e. (50/15/2). They're not the worst, but bad.
So on flop, when SB bets out in that field, I decide I dont want to play a big pot with my hand. Not wanting to play a big pot is obvious, but does anyone else fold like I did.
I'm figuring I'm up against a flush draw, KJish hand, and a set.

Hand 2: 3 pre-flop callers are nice and donkish. Flop caller is bad and wild (60/18/1). He may bet turn if I check, but i dont want to let him hit some gross flush. He's much more passive post flop and likely to call, than bet i think.
I could bet less, feign weakness, hope he comes over the top. Basically, since i've decided im going all the way with this (if he has a 7, oh well), did play it wrong?
