wrong forum but Hand 1 you should re-raising PF 4-handed.

Hand 2-raise more PF, I don't hate how you played it really.

1) Reraise pre, and after the raise over yours your done.
2) Seems fine but i would c/c river.

Hand 1: def. yes. I'd just call the flop after the preflop 3-bettor leads into two: he hardly calls a raise with worse. And there's another player yet to act.

Hand 2: otherwise fine, river meh. I guess this is ok if you have a read that he'll stack off with TP. I probably cc river, let him vb his J. If he shoves river, I'll have a tough decision but hey, that's best in poker.
