Default Reasonable fold 25NL

I played a couple hands against same villain and made a big laydown (for me) in the second hand. The hands were less than 10 minutes apart. I'd like your thoughts on both hands.






My thinking was that the guy played JJ pretty tight in the first hand. In second hand, with his PFR, I'm thinking he's got 88+, AK, AQs.

Once he raises me there, I can't think AK/AQ anymore. He saw me take the same line with AA. Sure he doesn't think I have AA again, but he should put me on a decent hand. The only hand I'm left beating is TT.

Too tight? I probably should have dumped, but I peeled to see if he would slow down or if I would hit my set.

1 Hand: I think, that you could bet $6 on the river. If he does not crai-bluff the turn, you could go for 3streets of value, but your line is the save line, so it's ok.

2 Hand: I would not 3bet preflop here a lot, since we have position and he is UTG, so we turn our JJ in a half bluff, since we can not felt it preflop or even as an overpair postflop. If he's a bad player, I might 3bet here, to Iso him and play a bigger pot ip against him, but if he plays reasonable, I'm more likely to call him. (If he's a great player, I 3bet here again, since his postflop skills are way better than mine ^^)
If I know nothing about this guy, I just fold to his flop crai, since he could take us 2 value town quite easily, cause we are unlikely to fold, if he bets 10$ on the turn and 15$ on the river, so we risk not only the money we call on the flop, but the turn+river suckbets, too. (If we start folding an JJ-overpair to suckbets on the turn, we could fold the flop...). We have no odds to call 4 set-value

Stats/reads? If you don't have any, please bet the turn in hand 1. As played, you need to value bet the river much more strongly. In hand 2, preflop is pretty marginal this deep against an UTG raiser about whom you apparently know nothing other than how he played hand 1. I think postflop is fine, although I definitely don't hate folding the flop.

hand 1 played fine, just value bet $6 here.
hand 2 (no stats on villain) b/f - sounds like he has QQ+
