I got to this thread too late.

First, I hope you stick around donking in the forums for another 5000 posts.

Second, I think the first hand is a perfect spot for a river check-raise (calling if 3-bet). Sucks you lost.

Third, I think in the second hand I would probably check-call (I was thinking this even before I read the results and your thoughts). If your read is accurate, it doesn't seem like this guy is betting both the flop and turn without a K; and if he has a K, he's gotta have an A, right? Turns out your read was a bit off - live and learn. But aren't you an advocate of not betting the river against someone who likes his hand unless you intend to 3-bet it when raised?

Fourth, I really hope you stick around the forums for another 5000 posts.
