first hand I check fold river, his call on your raise makes me think he was on a flushdraw. Maybe I call a small river bet.

second hand I'd throw away after the flop bet, but as played, 1/2-2/3 pot bet on river

1st hand I'd check fold to any bet >$15.

2nd hand, I'm betting pot. He'll call with any T.
