opponent numero 2   was a mate( ex ) who i play regularly,he loco crazy with his calling requirements..

no you played both fine IMO. you just didn't hit in the second scenario and that happens. And the first one of course you go all-in, unless you take him for an overpair, sure he will his the flush occasionally but more often then not he pays you off.

Unlucky in the first one and, well you're behind to the 2's but what can you do?

First one is a loose call withthe A 7 suited. 

2nd hand your just unlucky not to hit, how some folk manage to make a call with pocket deuces is beyond me.

A7s id prlly be calling with 3 limpers me being one its only 600 more to call and place you on a high hand PP->T or AJ+ so on that flop with the push all in youve got something higher than a Jack pair wise no way are you allining on Trips you want them to call, Although depends on Stacks really for the call tho loving my draws i may have joined him.

Take Advice of Tight Paul and fold AK! Its horrible when people call with low pairs in that situation tho id definelty mostly call for a cheap flop to either ship it in or fold it but as bandit says people swear by any pocket i can see the idea but i prefer to be the underdog in all races

1 hand - Your raise preflop with 3 limpers was too small IMO,

3 limpers i bet 1.5 pot.  or 3/4xbb +3xlimpers = 6/7xbb so 1200-1300 raise


2nd hand - the same - 3 xbb raise with 2 limpers is a weak raise.  I doubt it though the guy with 22 would fold ( but still your raise was too small )
