Wow these are so bad. I can't say they are or they aren't good bluffing spots, but your lines are soooo bad. Hand one, raise more on the flop and shut-down if he fires into you again on the turn. As played bet like $47 on the river. You don't look like you're trying to get value at all.

Hand two.... wtf? If you're going to raise that turn make it like $50 then call because you've priced yourself in. Personally I just call his bet.

FWIW neither of these hands look like villain is double barreling, so unless he's pretty weak I don't like 'em.

U are a nit amirite?

1: raise more on flop, and if u are gonna bluff raise turn, it seems like blocker bet by weak king/flush draw.

2: 5 doesnt change much, and push seems very bluffy to me. I would raise sth like 36-40 and represent floped set/top2.
Oh and raise pf.

Hand #1, I really think you are only folding KQ his check seems to be trying to induce.

Hand #2, Meh FPS I think you are getting wayyy too fancy. I raise preflop, but as played fold pre, fold flop, fold turn.

Hand 1: It looks like exactly what it is.

Hand 2: Preflop and flop sucks. Might be an okay spot on the turn, but make it smaller. If you want it to, the rest of the money goes in anyway and you'll save some when you miss. Plus it looks more like it's for value.

I play around 20/14/2, so you could probably say that.

20 seems right, though I'm not saying anything is really right about these hands.

Hand 1: Raise 15-20 on flop. Turn looks like a blocking bet frpm villian, so IŽd raise it up to 45 and obv call a push.
But as played, when you just called the turn, he def senses weakness in you, so therefore a river push here really looks like what it is, a missed flush draw. If you would have held AK here, you would obv have raised the turn, so if heŽs a thinking player he can be pretty sure you do not have AK or a set. The only decent hand you can rep here is 2 pair, AX, but it certanly does not look like a value bet.

Hand 2: IŽd raise 45 on turn, looks like its for value. A call would be fine to since I think it would be possible to get in a checkraise on the river if you hit your hand.
