I thought that he was just calling my C bets and trying to take it away on later streets, i guess i was wrong. I don't really know what to do here.

i would play it the same. depending on reads i think a turn bet could be okay(for example if he is peeling any pair on the flop or a gutshot or something). ofc u can't fold for so little on the turn and ofc u can't call even for so little on the river. nh.

Hand1, I'd call the river. 9.5:1, I think he shows a busted draw often enough. Plus we get to see what has.

If you call the river in hand 1, it has to be for information... even a very aggro player should have atleast a pair of threes here (machine unless he also had 2 diamonds there is no realistic draw he could show here... he could have air I guess but I dont think he is drawing at anything here, he probably has a weak piece of the board)...

As for hand two... I think you can pick a better spot... this sorta playing back with weaker hands out of your comfort zone is exactly how Aggros make their money...

Side Note - A C-bet (or continuation bet) has to be a continuation of something... in hands 1 and 2 you did not C-bet because you did not bet preflop... you just checked behind... he probably assumes you have exactly the type of hand you do have here in hand 2... A ragged BB hand...

hand 1- i actually like leading here, although i don't do it often. rest of the hand is good. calling river is borderline collusion.

hand 2- nice river!!!!!!! for real though just check the flop i dont think betting has a lot of value here.

Hand 1: This is terrible. If you bet a draw OOP, bet the flop AND THE TURN. If he calls the turn bet and you miss, check-fold. But bet that turn, otherwise you missply your draw.

Hand 2: You check your strong draws on hand 1 but you shove your weak draws in hand 2. I don't like that. Maybe switch your strategy and try just the opposite.

I play hand 1 the same.

Hand 2- I probably check/call the flop. The turn overbet is pretty bad. Why risk that many chips for a small pot when you will certainly be far behind if called?
