Default $50NL - AJ facing reraise on flop

Hand 1

Villain seems solid (16/5). What to do with this reraise?

Hand 2

Villain likes to play a lot of hands (40/15) and wants to play back (but isn't really capable of..). What to do with this reraise?

Default Re: $50NL - AJ facing reraise on flop

First of all, neither of these are reraises, they're just raises.

Hand 1, I'd probably fold, villain's stats look pretty solid, and two pair/set/straight looks pretty likely.

Hand 2, I'd shove, two pair is less likely, villain seems much more fishy, and you're short stacked. This is a pretty common line for a FD. BTW reload prehand, playing with ~65 BBs makes no sense. Either sit full or short-stack, don't wander in the middle. At these stakes, if you have the BR play a full stack, it'll help you improve your play much more than short-stacking.
