Default Two tough live hands, kinda deep 5/10

First hand:

Hero: U$2500
SB: U$2900
UTG: U$1200

My reads on UTG: He was playing alot of hands preflop and calling down light, 2 hands before he made a really retarded play that paid off big when he hitted a two outer with Q5 in a board Q44 against a pair of aces after calling a 50 dollar raise preflop. He bet the flop with Q5 and proceeded to push on the turn filling up on the river.

Action starts with UTG making it 50 to go, UTG+2 calls the rest folds and it gets to me on the button I look at 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] I decide to call.

Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

SB checks, UTG checks, UTG+2 checks and I check behind, the turn is: T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] giving me a flush, they all check and I bet 350, SB thinks for 1 minute and calls and the other two fold, the river is Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] which is a brick. He checks to me and the pot is now around U$900, I bet 700 and he thinks for a while and moves all in its U$1400 for me to call, so what now?

Results later...

Second hand:

First I have to explain the rule of the casino about acting out of turn, when you make a raise or a bet out of turn you are only allowed to call or fold, the option of raising or betting is declined to you. OK lets get back to the hand:

Hero: U$1200
UTG: U$2400
BB: U$700

No reads on villain I had just got in the game.

I have J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on the button and the action starts with 6 people limping in before me, I raise it up to 90 and then after I make this raise BB is contemplating calling and by mistake (at least it seemed so) UTG announces raise to 250 but since he acted out of turn he was forced to only call, BB called before him as well, 2 more people called. Flop came:

J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

BB checks, UTG bets U$200 everybody folds and the action gets to me, I think for a while and decide to min-raise him to 400, he seems to be thinking about moving in but he decides to just smooth call and I think he thinks he is trapping me with aces or some big pair, so the turn comes the A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] leaving the board with J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], he looks to me and checks I think that betting here has no value since he is stacking me every time with aces and folding kings and queens most of the times, so I decide to check behind the river is the Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] he quickly announces a bet of 750 and I....


I think these are very interesting hands if you really take a look at it, I'll post results later.
