2 hands

[barry.egan]

Just for hand 1:
Does "a relatively uninteresting player" mean incapable of making this move with a pocket pair or (but especially) with two cards with nothing on them? Without the spade I think I don't mind a fold, but with the flush hitting you have to check behind if intending to fold to this check raise. But maybe this play garnered all kinds of people taking shots at you, butI doubt they made up for(read IF) folding the best hand here.

All this of course bars me knowing about any reads you may have had...
