I am guessing that you are probably experienced enough to make a big laydown in a big pot with a good read. I am not.

this is the only thing i disagree with in your post. noting that i now beat QJ in hand 1 i think is huge. also the way the hand was played, i (now) think it was def. right of me to check the turn because i have a lot outs and want to pay 1 bet not 2 if i'm behind. but becuase no ones play declares they have an A i gotta call the river.

in hand 2, i set myself up to make a turn laydown by how strong i played the flop. i think my line is good against someoen i have a history/ knowledge of. most players i can tell if i have >100 hands, and a few hands agaisnt if they are a 2p2er or not. or if i can make this fold or not. but with only 30 hands my read was basically none. so my line, which lets me make a good laydown if i know the other player is quite atrocious (imo) if i dont.
