V is early 30's Asian guy; hates folding and loves to hero; hasn't shown a ton of aggression (50vpip/25pfr)

***game is super action; loose passive; straddle is a Rec l/p so not worried about the squeeze here;

Hand 1: More pre. I go at least $100, probably $120, especially if V calls loose pre. I am fine with the c-bet, but I fold this turn vs. non-aggressive V with another player behind. Could be drawing only to a K.

Hand 2: I fold pre, but whatever. Flop and turn are OK. I lead river vs. V who likes to hero but is not aggressive so might check behind. Go around $450. Shove if you want to look bluffy. If he has A-high flush, it's kind of a cooler, but we did call pre.

h1: size pre ok ip, could go a tad more. OTF not sure about sizing, I think worse overpair and draws will call a bigger bet though.

Turn I assume MP folded. Do you have any idea of his cold calling range pre or how spazzy he is? I gotta assume like 66+, AK, AQ, maybe weird stuff like suited broadways. We block some flushes. I think call turn/eval but it is close.

h2: pre is ok but close to absolute lowest i'd call with. Flop or turn x/r would be nice. I hate x/c draws oop all the way down like this, plays sort of trashy. We have a lot of 6x in our range played like this so I don't think we can get a lot of value, bet smallish like $375 and pray for a crying call.

I'm shoving h1, just too much money in there, too much equity to release, and he doesn't have hands better than a flush too often and not that many flush combos left. Betting flop never IP 4 ways w this hand.

I'd never call call h2. Too shallow, smash away, prob on the turn, that's a pretty big leak you should exploit when he bets 250. AP, I would always check if I played turn as you did.

These were my thoughts before reading any responses.

On hand 2 you could jam on turn, but since you said he was sticky I'm not sure I'd see him fold Tx enough to make it profitable. It is close either way, but since you said sticky I'd probably just call and bet a river that improves us. Also next time hit a better diamond that doesn't put 4 to a straight out there.
