Quick sanity check | AA Twice | NL10
 

I used to look for expert folds here.. Now i just call/push, reload&forget about it. Please tell me i´m right so i can continue to donate to the god of variance.

Both times villain is a 20/10 regular.

1) Raise to .40 preflop, bet more on the flop initially (almost full pot). When you get raised, your triple-min raise to $1.80 is pathetic. I would push it up to at least $4 and get it AI if possible. It's 10NL so AK is OBV the nuts on this board...

2) Preflop is fine. I would bet a little more on the flop - $2.30 - $2.75. Turn is a pretty crappy card for you here since a lot of two pair combos just hit. I might be tempted to fold the turn here although I'm probably getting it in sometimes too.

Illini is right about how to bet these hands, but even if you'd done it "right" you'd still lose in both cases. Variance is the Bioootch.
