Middle pairs, Bad play = bad spot.

[PJCooper]

have been running bad and am probably seeing bogeymen under the bed. been having a little trouble with middle pairs and have created problems for myself.

This guy hasn't been here long but seems pretty TAGish.

This guy is def TAG. I think he has come down from 1-2 havn't seen him really put a foot wrong so...

bigger flop bet, say $6? then if Im C/R?

I know both are bad so im looking for better lines here not LOL at my fishyness, but if you must....

I b/f the turn in hand one. Still lots of value to be had and at this point he is going to raise you with any made hand and its an easy laydown.

Hand 2, if you trust your read, shove the turn. He has a combo draw here just as often as he has a set. And def bet more on the flop.
