So here I am, got some bug idk what it is, so I don't even go out on a friday night like any other guy my age because I have SATs tomorrow morning. End of story, I played exactly 1000 hands to boost my bankroll all the way to $163.57 from $160.70. It seems that whenever I play 1k hands I usually dump a little money at about 800 untill the end by making questionable calls. At least the bankroll went up in this session though and I never once really tilted. I'm gonna post some hands here so that hopefully you can discuss them. Thanks LP!

Hand #1:

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/137689

ok so I call here in position on the button because with this hand I figure I can flop big, which I sort of did. So then we have the SB minbet and then somebody minraises. Now I just do a standard raise (I think). Next, the initial minbettor calls the two reraises. So I think he is probably just on the flush draw or stupid enough for the straight draw. Next card is essentially a blank so when he checked I thought I would just take the pot down right there. But, no of course the SB minraises me. The only hand I guess I can put him on there is A7 or KJ. Finally, I just folded because with his minraise he had 82 cents left so I figured any hand he would commit himself with was better than my middle two pair. My question is: was the hand played correctly and was this a good fold? Also, should I be playing these SC’s on the button in a limped pot like this?

Hand #2:

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/137690

this hand I think was pretty straightforward. I considered the other player in the hand a complete donk and I think this hand shows it. So I think I open the pot with a raise and get the one caller. Next, I do just a continuation bet which is just standard. But, the other player cold calls it. So, on the turn the straight draw is completed so I just check. I don’t know why I gave up the lead there I guess I just thought my hand was in danger. I give up the lead to much I think in this situation. But, the other player bets like 1/3 pot. I took this as them being weak which we find out to be true. I call the turn bet and wanted to reevaluate on the river. The river comes another 3 and I see no way how this card could’ve helped the other player’s cause. They essentially go all-in leaving 2 cents behind. I finally call because of the weird turn bet and then all-inning on a stupid card.
Was this call justifiable and should I have kept the lead betting the turn?
