i really can't understand your flop check in #1, i'd bet this exactly 100% of the time, maybe you misclicked?

Funny, I thought just the opposite.

Hand 1 I feel he may be too shallow to fold out a mid PP (which would seem to be a big part of his range). You represent JJ-KK very well with this line but stacks may just dictate a light lookup.

Hand 2 I like precisely because of this type of opponent. They will often play through the flop with anything and let postflop start at the turn so to speak. Great float instead of raise by the way on the flop.

But even if "postflop starts on the turn" - villain called hero's turn bet. So i'm not sure he's on AK/AQ anymore - and based on his pf stats, I'd say he abhors folding.

I'd like hand 2 more if villain wasn't so looooooose. Hand 1 is good vs a thinking player because he's going to assume you would fire with air on the flop here because well........ why would you ever check the flop with J/Q/K high in this spot? I think it's totally reasonable for you to show up with an ace here as well as JJ-KK given flop/turn/river action. I don't like it if he's stationy though.

By the way, its not totally unreasonable for villain in hand#1 to have an ace himself.
