Hand 1: No, I'd go ahead and bet this. You looked like you're on a draw, and you don't want him giving up with his Q if he's afraid of the A. I also think I'd bet the flop.

Hand 2 is fine.

ok i ended up betting hand 1 and was wondering if a check raise wouldve been good but the cold call on the flop kinda gives my hand away i guess

Check calling two bets on the flop screams flush draw. So you gotta bet the river.

1. Lead the flop. Fishing along calling bets give your hand away and the T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] completes a few obvious draws, so you need to donk the river to avoid getting it checked through.

2. Fine.

Hand 1:
I'd bet out because the T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] fills in flush draws and some straight draws so I think it might get checked through.

Hand 2: Ya, I'd call with top two pair.

I bet the river in hand 1.

Hand 2 I call the c/r. Sure it sucks, but if he called the whole way with a 4, god bless him.
