I'd fold in one, this is a pair almost always. If he thought you were light and he held a hand like AQ I think he would just jam preflop so you don't fold dominated unpaired overs.

2 I really have no clue, I guess fold. I think preflop really sucks though.

I call hand 1. It looks like a SNG and you are not that far behind pot odds against a pp.

I would make a larger reraise, push, or flat call preflop, so as not to be put in this situation.

Hand 1 is a pretty big wtf for me since if he wanted to get money in i'd imagine he'd check. Conversely, i don't think he expects many folds here from your range, so i guess i fold given what he's expecting.

Hand 2 post flop is fine, i'm a huge station but i guess i can fold riv cause there's enough in his range that beats you and a lot of good MTT players shut down after getting stationed once. Also, pre flop kinda sucks with having barely over 20 BB's.

hand 1-seems like mid pp but getting a lil better than 2:1 a call could be justified if he does this often enough with other hands that still need to improve vs. you since you only need ~31% equity

hand 2-fold turn and keep your stack semi-healthy
