Villain here was 19/19 so I really wasnt sure what to put him on. I figured I was behind, but obviously had to call with the OESD.

This villain is 22/17. I knew I was beat here and just couldnt release the hand. Major leak of mine, gonna stay put at .25NL until I learn when to let go against a single opponent. UTG was 20/7 but I think I should have repopped it out of the SB.

Hand 1 is fine. Hand 2, you really need to reraise UTG. Flop play looks OK.
