How much do you bet?

[cashstrapped]

hand 1 sucks, i think i fold there.
hand 2 i bet around $13

Hand 1....Fold prolly.


Hand 2.....Check probably. He's got less than a pot sized bet...board isn't really that drawy so I'll check one street and hope he shoves turn. If he checks turn I likely shove.

Hand 1: Ugly spot, fold. But I would have bet pot-sized (10-12).

Hand 2: I bet half pot (8-10) and call a shove.
