First hand I would shove pre-flop with 44. 2nd hand I would consider betting the turn, but checking it down isn't to bad.

Cheers,

First hand is a shove pre-flop.
As played I would call the small flop bet, because the board is dry and doesn't really hit villains range hard at all. Turn/river play will be tricky, but folding here is just too nitty.

Second hand I would take the same line as you. Checking flop is good imo and as SDK1987 pointed out: if you want to bet, the turn is probably a better spot as you gained some info on the flop and the turn hit your range quite well. Nonetheless my default play still is checking here and trying to see a cheap showdown with my okayish hand.

Best of luck! :heart:
