Default NL200 QQ preflop

i wasnt really on top of my game yesterday. in the first hand i was very confused. i show strenght by raising the UTG raiser, who is a donk, but still. and then the SB makes this weird small raise. I think folding is really bad. he seems kinda reasonable and i dont think hes doing it as a bluff, reraise, call and reeval flop?

this hand is a little easier i think. i would say if i want to continue i'd have to shove but then id see AA and KK way too often, as i think hed fold TT and JJ, maybe call AK.

I havent seen him get out of line and do any crazy stuff, my image was pretty much tag, maybe even a little nitty.

Is this fold ok?

Hand 1 is an easy fold, he's not doing this with JJ and bluffing would be suicide.

Hand 2 is push or fold. Without history (i.e. you have no reason to believe villain is "exploiting" your perceived wide 3-betting range) I'm leaning towards a fold. Calling and getting it in when you flop an overpair (which happens ~45% of the time) is bad, especially if he's not moronicly betting every flop when checked to.

hand 1 id probably need a read that he can reraise light behind/knows about the donk to do this in order to continue. fold.


hand 2 without that good of a read in button vs sb i find it tough not to stack here and make a note. i guess flip a coin for push/fold.
