Re: fold x2, but how\'d I play the rest?
Hey Brick -
In hand one, like others are crucifying you for, raising is the worst option. There is still, I think, ample equity in that game to play the hand, though, so I limp.
However, given that you raised, I also think that raising the flop is superior. I understand wanting to 'wait for the turn', but I like that a lot more if you have AJ on a J73 flop. As it is, there are more "quasi scary" cards than safe cards. But, even more importantly, the flop bettor will likely, even if you raise the flop, put you on AK/AQ and threebet any pair. This will get out the KT/QJ hands that you desperately want to be folded.
Hand 2 is entirely player dependant. Given who I think the villain was in hand #2, it's a fold (although, interestingly, I'd say AA and KK are more likely holdings for her than AK/KQ) (I'm thinking the villain has short dark hair, speaks with an accent, is a bit heavyset and almost definitely wearing black, since that's all she wears).
