Re: Couple 11s at Party...trying to plug leaks
Hand 1, you could consider all-in pre-flop. You're almost at an effective stack of 10xBB here, and K9o is easily strong enough to go all in at 10xBB.
The way you played it is OK if you know the BB is a weak player. Also if any flop comes without an Ace, you could go all-in and it would a difficult call for someone who didn't flop a pair, which is 2 to 1 against. And with a smallish pair, they might still fold, so this play is easily +EV.
Unless Villain in hand 2 is way tight, you should have an easy call here I think.
