I got $3.50 on a freeroll so I'm trying to work it up, currently at $10. Don't really feel like sitting with too much of stack so reloading is out of the question. I don't have PT and these were within first 10 hands, no previous notes taken on villians.

Don't have much left this time, but same question versus 2 villians.

These were in the first TEN hands?? Dam I wish I hit flops like that....
First hand I would bet out 2/3 pot(you really really need the call if you want to build a small roll) and second hand I would be the pot size at least...

first hand i'd bet .50 on the turn and shove any river, 2nd hand i'd just shove b/c you have less than the pot left.

keep betting

I think I shove the first. You dont have much left in the first one.

The second bet 2/3 pot or so. Make some money!

First hand - You have 1.35 left in a 1.63 pot with a set, time to put it in.

Second Hand - All in also, you have less than a pot sized bet. You have two pair so you have a few outs to a boat plus a lot of outs to a flush. Oh, and your likely to have the best hand. Although in a limped pot K7 or K8 is possible. The only thing your really scurred of is a set.

Mostly with both these hands you want to be aggressive. These boards give villains the opportunity to have a lot of worse hands (1pair/draws/etc..) that will call a less than pot sized bet on the turn. If you got folds, then they were not likely to call any good sized bet.
