Hand 1 screams made flush but you get good odds. Hand 2 you beat some value hands and your check might induce some bluffs. The hands that make the straight should have folded to your turn bet, except for specifically ATss (T9ss should probably fold on flop but I guess it could be included). I would call in both instances.

Next time you post hand histories, don't include results.

I would shove myself in both hands since I am not folding and villains are weighted towards showdown value since we have bet massively.



We lose to so few hands in both cases.

Are you really shoving river in hand 2? And, do you mean check/shove, or just bet-shoving 90BB directly?

If not shoving, then definately betting at least 75%. But I dont mind shoving. What hands that beat us can he have? AT of spades and 33 (which sometime raises the flop). T9 of spades maybe

He flats in the co, which likely means a weaker player and therefor likely to make mistakes.

What hands can he have, that are strong at that we beat? Kx, KJ, occasionally other weaker 2pair. You have the best hand on the river like 80%+ of the time (maybe 90%+), and I think it is a pretty clear value shove/bet.

I somehow imagined shoving was much more of an overbet than it is, although I thought I did the math. Agree with your reasoning.
