Two micro stake cash hand spots
1) First shot at NL8 for a good while. origional opener is on both NL8 tables, seems like a fairly solid reg for early reads. Not seen him get out of line at all. Which is partly why i didnt cold 4b pre. Although is that the best route? The 3better is only on this table seems pretty inactive bar a few pots here and there. As played how is best to procceed in the hand now, facing different types of action on different kinds of turn & rivers?

2) Most of the table is tagged green, which at nl4 probably wont suprise you to find out that means weak/passive. Anyways limped pot, hit the flush and this happens.

Have to call the current bet though, weakish lead suggests the 3bettor either fears the flop (thinks his KK/AA etc has been outflopped) or has whiffed (with AK/AQ/KQ). Depending on action from the other player, I'm likely to be putting more chips in on turn and river (dependent on what comes down, obv)
Hand 2 - I'm a nit so I smooth call and am happy to take down / pat myself on back for losing minimum.
If this was higher limits I might think differently, but draws seem to get played so passively at NL4 / people love playing suited cards that I'd reckon at least one of the oppos has a high probability of a flush in their hand...
That said, for such a small amount my curiosity would force me to call and hope I see a mid pair and a random 9x
