Two AA hands

Hands are from two different tables. Typical micro table ... about 40 percent seeing the flop and bad play all around.

I feel like I lost about 10 million bets in hand 2.

Hand 1: What can you do... looks like you either ran into 2-pair or got gutshot. Betting the river is fine, but I myself would have checked (not saying I am right, but I know I would have)

My logic is this. I want to show this hand down, but I would rater not pay 2BB to see KQ or KT turned over. Also with 4 people calling along the whole way it is unlikely that they are all on a busted flush draw.

I know that people will call you with worse hands than your pair of aces, but with four people in and this board, I think you are more likely to see 2-pair than anything. So I would check with the intention of calling a bet, and yeah I probably would fold if it was 2 back to me.

Hand 2: other than calling until the river, not much you could do. At most you missed 1 BB

Hand 1: Perfect.

Hand 2: Raise preflop, raise the flop, hope villian has some spades or a pocket pair. Note that raising the turn is scarrier for villian than raising the flop. (An alternative line is to just call the flop and turn bets, waiting for the river to raise. This line has the advantage of letting villian continue to bluff at the pot. Calling the flop and raising the turn is inferior to either of these approaches IMO).

Oops, missed the lack of pre-flop second hand.
