Hand 1: Not the greatest spot to be in against someone you don't know at all (and shouldn't have 3-bet pf with K9 - 62o is much better for that purpose). I'd call the flop and try to get a read on the turn. If he seems the least beat shaky when he bets it, push.

Hand 2: Just push, it's about a PSB anyway.

actually, K9s is better to reraise then 62o, but the point is its not much different at all.

Hi dlp,

I'm pushing both for sure. If you raise the flop in hand 1, you'll have to call a shove, and given your read, it seems like he'd do that (TT or whatever). He probably won't fold a medium overpair, but so what? Sometimes he'll have less, and when he doesn't have less, it's real close to a flip.

Hand 2 is a no-brainer push, I'd say. Weird line for him to take with a hand bigger than a flush, and you don't have enough to get reraised, so I'd put him squarely on a flush and shove. It's up to him if he wants to call, but you're very rarely behind here IMO.
