I had hand one, why shove 55 bb's here?

Hand 2 is close, I would probably fold.

First hand i fold

Second, lets see, if he has a pair of twos, do you have odds? No, so unless he is bluffing and or shoving a draw, then i fold.

hand 1: fold .... or call and hope for a set on the flop if you really wanna play it.

hand 2: borderline decision. villain is pot commited and never folds, so his all-in move means nothing. he can easily turn over QJ, KQ, KJ, or even some suited connectors lik 67s, 78s,...
If he played tight the last few orbits I would fold. Otherwise I would call.

Hand 1 is close, there is a lot of dead money in the pot. This play depends on BTN reads for me, if you think he is capable of folding 77-TT here then maybe I like it.

Hand 2 I call. This is could be a standard stop and go by villan. If he got lucky and hit the flop or has a PP you have six outs most of the time. he could also have random sc, broadway, Ax, Kx, etc. I think you'd be suprised how often you are ahead here.

Hand 1: MP1 raises an utg limper to 7xbb. Thats a pretty big raise by him and I don't think he is stealing. I don't like a shove here at all. I think you get looked up a lot and are crushed by any reasonable range. I'd usually just fold preflop.

Hand 2: I call.

MP1 pushed. I'm still not mad keen on the push because you're showing it down.

I call in the second hand. The quicker villain open pushes the flop, the happier I am calling.
