Default I bet these hands are very easy.

I'm making the leap from limit to NL. These seem like some common situations i should get a handle on.

No stats no reads. I am new to table.

Default Re: I bet these hands are very easy.

first hand: raise more pf, like 12+. i would raise the flop harder and shove the turn. turn card was great for you too.

hand 2: i think pf is a leak most times, i would dump alot. i would raise the flop to 15 and call a shove. (or shove myself somewhere).

Hand 1 is fine though i think you should push this turn.

Hand 2 Don't call weak or dominated hands OOP to a raise. Just fold it to save yourself getting in bad situations. As for the hand beyond the flop, i'm happy.

yeah, calling a raise with KJo oop is asking for trouble mostly. i like your flop play there though.

Hand one looks good, except maybe the afore mentioned bigger rr pre.

Hand 1... I like flop raise size. Turn I would probably just shove him in. River is instacall. Damn you're runnin good when u switch from limit to nl!

Hand 2 played PERFECT imo... great raising amounts on flop.

Counterspell,

Hand 1: Raise more flop, poosh turn.
Hand 2: I'd expect to see combo draws and bottom set there more often than not. Possibly call, get it in on a safe turn? Preflop play is pretty haggard.

Answer to more opponents opening is to 3bet more often, not call.

Hand one you need to push the turn, aside from that it was played perfect up until that point.

The way hand 2 went down, it was played well. But as other people said, fold preflop.
