Default Re: $10/45 on Stars two hands.

Hand 1 sucks, but it is probably a fold.

Hand 2, you have to shove it on the flop. Folding would be criminal. You put in 1/4th of your stack PF. He made a c-bet on a flop that may or may not have connected with him. You could reasonably expect his entire range to c-bet this flop. You are way too priced in against his range on the flop not to shove.

Edit: BTW, Shove hand 2 PF. He made a 2.5xBB raise, you have 10BBs and are against one opponent. There are times in a tournament where I am dealt a starting hand that is fairly strong where I know before it even gets to me that I am shoving (almost) no matter what. This is one of those times.

Now if he raised and someone else re-raised, we'd have an easy fold. But against a single standard raise, we have a shove.
