Final pot: $71.75 villian in second hand types AA?&gt; when i make flop c-bet. i really dont have him on a flush draw here. is the river check bad? i feel like i wanna check this down, or just call the shove with the pot odds. any thoughts on both are appreciated

Jordie,
I suck at $50 NL (maybe poker in general) so don't take my advice too seriously. Hand 1 for me is a tough spot. Either he's squeezing light, or he's got the goods. AK is better if you get to see all the cards as the flop isn't going to hit you as much as we'd like it to. If this guy has been 3betting and squeezing very much, I am pushing. If not, I really don't think you are missing out on too much by folding (but I am a supernit). I would like to hear some good responses on this one.

Hand 2 is a snapcall for me. If he put in $18.50 to make a flush, or if he has AJ or JJ, good for him.

Hand 1: I think I'm probably 4betting all-in pre-flop here. As played flop seems standard.

Hand 2: I definitely call. I wonder if just leading $17 or check calling is better.
