Did I totally misplay these?

Hand #1 - I'm sot sure I see what you're calling with on the river here. Your call puts you almost into <10BB desperation mode, you're getting less that 2:1 from the pot, and any single heart >6 beats you. UTG's flop call on a monotone board tells you he has a hand, probably including a heart. I would fold here 100% of the time.

Don't think this way. Those chips are no longer yours, make your decisions based on the odds the pot is laying you, not on how much you personally have invested to that point.


Hand #2 - I think a smaller flop raise (T200 or so) would accomplish the same goal here, but you pushed, he called and outdrew you. It happens.
