Can't fold this given stack sizes. If he called your flop raise with naked 7 then even after you call here the whole hand is -EV for him.Second one I think I'd fold in vacuum. Flush completed, TP has trips now. You only beat a bluff and in vacuum it's hard to estimate the bluff frequency.

First one I snap call. The entire hand played out like villain has overs as well. Second hand I fold. Our investment in this hand is low, our exposure is high and the flush completed. If this villain is bluffing flushes on paired boards, we'll make $ off him over time.

i wouldn't like it, but fold'em both

I fold both although I'd think about Hand 1 more.The donk bet by SB on the flop reads like I have TP and the turn bet is a guy fast-playing trips. The second hand is worse as along with trips, the flush draw also hit.On both hands, those turn cards are awful for your hand, where's a paint card that doesn't fill the flush when you need one?

Hand 1: Almost the exact same situation I was in yesterday. My initial reaction was to fold. But after looking at my stack size (getting 2:1), I called with my AA and he turned over a K-little flush draw. Although I won the hand, I really like his push on the turn ......Hand 2: I guess you have to fold.

The first is a snap, he prolly has like tens or jacks or something.The second is actually really weird. People say its a fold, but I cant actually decide what his hand is. If he had the flush, why would he bet pot at you? Surely he would make a bet your more likley to call... I guess it could be a weakish flush, and he doesnt want you to draw with the naked spade ace or something, but then why is he calling on the flop with a weak flush. Still i suppose its a fold..actually he could have a flush and is hoping you have an 8.. that would make senseIf i flatted the second one? see showdown as cheap as pos, if he bets on the river he def has a flush though.On a side note, i play $25 NL and make all my opening raises $1. you get less action but your post flop decisions are easier
