Hand 1 - Hard to say without stack sizes. I don't think calling is an option. It's either push or fold. Either way you're playing from behind and have to hit your flush.Hand 2 - Easy call. Your opponent could easily have paired his Q and is willing to go all the way. Besides that, your hand is good enough to warrant calling with the pot odds you're being given.

Hand 1 - we both had approx $25 to start the handHand 2 - what hands would he be playing that would have a Q in it, that would still be in the hand after that flop?

Hand 1: Open limping sucks. Raise or fold preflop. Enough said on that 1.Hand 2: Insta call. If he has trips you have to pay him off. Villian has hands you beat more than enough of the time to make the call profitable.
