so does this mean you want  to properly discuss hands or are you going to react the same way you did last time?

i hope it is the former. 

in the first hand, A5o is a pretty junk hand to be opening from MP2 – you there is no real board that you can get any significant action on, except for A5x, so i would be folding this hand and opening something like 89s or even J9s, as these sorts of hands have much better postflop playability. 

as played, your bet on the flop is fine, but i am not sure what folds on the turn that called on the flop. villains with flush draws are still calling most likely, especially if they have two overcards as well, and villains with overpairs usually put you on a draw and so call as well. 

i would check-evaluate turn. 

on the river, the only hands you get value from are overpairs that have a diamond. there are a significant amount of Tx hands in villains range too – 9T and T8 with a diamond, AT/KT as well. 

if i barrelled turn i would check-eval river and allow villain to bluff missed draws but depending on action i think folding is ok, but i still think checking turn is best. 

in the second hand, i like your raise sizing preflop and your flop sizing. even though you havent given any reads, i think becasue of the limp it is safe to assume villain is likely to be bad, and so charging his single pair hands is a good idea. 

his turn raise sizing is pretty indicitave of a made hand though. quite often fish will bet large like this in order to protect their made hand from the flush draws out there, of which there are now two. i think QT,Q9,KJ,22 possibly even J8, maybe even Aces are all in villain's range, and the sort of hands you beat are hands like TJ and QJ with a flush draw, but there isnt that many. 

i think its a pretty clear bet-fold on the turn, interesting to hear what other people think. 

yeah agree, i obv mean cr, just didnt write it. 

cheers for posting your reads too, it helps a lot. 

in the first hand, given you had not been getting played back at much, i think its much less of a marginal open. would still be very near the bottom of my range, but i can see myself sometimes opening this on very tight tables. it also makes the double barrel a bit better too as you might get folds from some mid pair type hands that might peel, although it is still a very wet board that just got even wetter, so i think i would still check turn and evaluate. 

in hand two, i agree that big raises like this are almost always nutted hands, particularly ones that they want to protect from draws, so i think if you bf this you played it well
