These overbet situations are never easy IMO. The first hand is a much bigger overbet than the second. In my experience (only 25k hands, so not a lifetime), an overbet like this usually has one pair beat.

I can find a fold int he second hand, with 3 to the flop and 2 picture cards out there, KK doesn't look so juicy to me when I've been overbet like that.

In the first hand, after he makes the raise, I think we can reliably put his range on AA, KK, QQ, JJ and AJ. I'm not sure how KK performs vs. this range (need to get pokerstove).

The first one is fine/standard and very uninteresting. The second is interesting. A read would help, esp. if you could figure out if he'd reraise JJ. Then you only lose to 22/QJ/JJ because most people reraise QQ and some people won't call QJ OOP and then you're losing to 1 or 2 hands and I don't usually fold an overpair when I only lose to 1 or 2 hands.

Hand #1 BvB I get AI here with little thought..

Hand # 2 is troublesome...OOP I want a larger PF to $3-3.50...Stronger bet(6.50-7.00) on the flop..BB could be reading your about 1/2 PSB as weakness and be overvalueing TP(likely AQ)..A stronger bet defines our hand more...As played I call the raise and re-eval turn..Absent a read I do not think I can find a fold...JJ/QQ likely 3 bet PF and JQ likely fold leaving only 22 to fear..With another player to act and no FD I think most villain would slowplay a set in this spot..

Hand 1. As played,go AI. As a side, if villian had limped called PF, would this be a fold?

Hand 2. I fold. Villian has QJ or a set. If he wanted to play a draw fast he'd b3b AI.
