Consecutive hands.

I played at the table for awhile, but it was in the middle of players leaving and joining. Some PF raising, but nothing bigger then 5xbb.

************
The players doing the raising in this hand haven't really done much while I was there. With the raise, reraise, and call I knew I was a big dog if not completely dominated.

What would you guys have done with this hand?

******************
After I look at this hand I really don't like much of what I did.

A PF raise that I think is a little too small. Good bet on the flop, but I hate that I put them all in on the turn when the board paired.

Hand history a little hard to follow but one the first one why not bet harder when the A hit? If your folding there at any point you should definitely have folded Preflop. I would have folded PF but once you are there, the Ace on the board makes it less likely he has AA, and if he has trip aces hes going to be putting all his chips in at some point anyway and you can't fold. If he has AQ or KK you don't want to let him off cheaply.

You just can't tell what many players at these tables are calling with. I raised it to .25 and he called another .21 from the BB with 87o. That should give you an idea of how random the hands can be and the fact that I got no information from this player just calling my raises.

I folded the AK PF. If I called to the flop with it I'm not going anywhere when that A hits.

I dont see much wrong with either of these hands to be honest.
