50NL...set play - ill c/r him on the turn...

I think both hands are played fine and I'm going to disagree and say that my favorite part of the first hand is the weak lead on the flop. Great bet.

Brunson writes about this in the super system. Leading into the raiser is better than the standard checking to the raiser as it builds a pot and really puts him in a bad spot when he raises you. He's more committed than he would have been had you simply called his c-bet. The weak lead perfectly induced the bluff you were looking for.

I like the check on the turn too, because the flop was so dry. Yes, he won, but only because he literally caught perfect runners. Don't be angry about this one, you played it fine.

I assume you lost the 33 hand, too. That sucks, but to be honest, there isn't enough behind for you to get off either of these hands.

You played both of them fine.
