Default Re: Which play is the RIGHT play??

For hand 1, dont think of how you are betting in terms of your stack, think of them in terms of the potsize. With a vulnerable hand like bottom two on a coordinated board I would be looking at close to a postize bet, and hopefully stacksizes will allow a push on the turn. As played in a sng I dont think you are making a laydown here with two pair. Sorry that he sucked out .

Hand 2, since it was limped pre its difficult for you to put QQ or KK in the ranges of the threee players all in in front of you. With their action, it might make sense that they both had a king, one of them with KQ, and the other with a flush draw (or two of them with a flush draw, one with a king, etc) ... Again sorry you g ot sucked out on, but you got your money in ahead with great odds and its too bad you bricked out. Fire open another sng

As for 'who played these hands correctly'

Limping J5s, J7s in EP is junk. Limping JTs in ep is a hand im fodling, same with A3s ... getting it in behind a shove on a suited board with OESD is garbage, A3s calling postflop with NFD is not a bad play after two all ins previous - those odds are hard to argue with.
