Don't worry about it RNG's don't work like a regular deck of cards.

your getting 5.3:1 on hand 1 on the turn. so what are the odds for 8 outs out of 46 cards? 6:1 i think??? good fold. + implied= maybe bad fold idk.

add in 3+3 for possible outs for a pair = ???? his hand dosnt look like a King to me.

i would never call this on the turn, you're just not getting the pot odds on the draw... The cards are random generated too, that card probs wouldn't of come down if you called.

Hand 1: I'd call this every day of the week and twice on sunday. You have position, and it's only 300 more to call 1600 . . . . 5.3:1.

I'm assuming that at least one player is on the flush draw, so you're looking at 6 outs or about 7:1 odds wise. That 1.7 differential only represents winning a bet of about 500 on the river if you hit . . . . easy money.

The call only brings you down from about 3200 to 2900 . . . . a difference in your M between about 21 to 19. . . . not a significant enough difference to warrant folding.

Second hand . . . that raise puts you in a difficult situation with your pair of 4's. You don't have the odds to play them for set value, and out of position you really don't want to play them for pair value. This is either a fold, stop and go (all in on the flop), or reraise all in for a steal.

Of course, I think doing a stop and go with 44 against 2 players is ill advised. I'd be tempted to reraise here to try and take down the pot. Of course I'd get called, and get lucky!!!!
