Hand 1:
[Ts] in BB 7 handed.
Here is my only previous encounter with opponent. Button raise, 3-bet the turn, fold to scary river although I suspect I was ahead all the way.

[7s] for the flush. He must have feared a bigger flush when I raised turn. I still like my turn raise here though. I've been constantly being donked into and waiting until the turn to raise has had a much better result so far than raising flop. They seem to respect the turn raise more. Sometimes I'll give away a card that beats me, but not often enough heads up. He was going to get his flush anyway and I wouldn't have lost any less in this situation.
