Just had a friend send me a little and I've been trying to focus on my heads up game. These two hands came up and while probably standard and uninteresting left me with weird decisions.

Hand 1: First hand so no reads. I definetly spewed way too much on river.

Hand 2: Villain hadn't done anything too odd to this point. Was passive PF for the most part and picked off 1 or 2 of my cbets. His river shove felt so weird to me.
