Default Re: 2 hands for review stud8

On the first hand, I don't think folding is terrible, but I'm with blumpkin that this is worth calling and then calling on the river with almost any improvement. Realize that he's betting about anything here, and occasionally you will scoop him when he has two scraggly pair and you make a flush.

The river fold on the second hand is brutally awful in my humble opinion. You are getting about 5:1 on your call. It cannot be raised behind you. There is indeed an excellent chance that you're getting swept, but it ain't 85% or whatever. Why can't he be betting just a low? Who knows, maybe he's betting with a worse high hand and no low.
