Two hands (Stars 45k)

[benneh]

Hand 1:

You really should have chceked in position here, hoping to pick up a better draw (turning that draw into an open ender, or add a flush). I really don't like c-betting with nothing against smaller stacks like Villain in this hand, because they seem to check-raise me very often and I feel trapped into calling aside from odds.

Given how youplayed this hand, i'd fold since i'm getting improper odds and he only has 9k behind. Although, if I was actually put int he situation, I might just reraise all in if I felt my cards were good for 6 outs. Hard to say when you're reading the action on a website.

Hand 2:

If my calculations are correct, you're the favorite to win this hand even against a set of aces and the nut straight. But you're only 38%, and you'd have to put in more than 50% of the money. At least, I think that's right.

I would probably gamble because i'd still have a nice stack to play with for the level.
