Hero checks, <font color="red">UTG+2 bets $8</font>, Hero calls $8

<font color="blue">His turn bet is bigger than I expected, in hindsight maybe I should have c/f? I figured I can still c/c here and fold to another bet on the river if I don't improve and if he slows down maybe I can get a free showdown</font>

<font color="blue">This bet puts him all in for $77 more or so in a $55 pot. I did this because he could have a lot draws and I want him to incorrectly call, which I felt he was more likely to do based on my aggressive play up to now. What would you bet? </font>

Not sure about hand #1. I would probably just call the river. But hand #2 is terrible, bet about $40, you are allowing hands to play perfectly against you.
