[U][B]Hand 1-[/B][/U]

[B]Pre-[/B] KJo is not a good hand. especially out of position against two players.  You can use it to 3-bet defend your blinds against some looser players, but here I'd just fold.

Think about it... what does a good flop look like for KJ?  On those flops, how will you know you're ahead if you are out of position?
[B]
Flop:[/B] I like checking there, but I'd check-raise more.  A Min raise makes no sense.  You want to make any QT, JT, KT pay a lot or fold outright (KT wont fold).  You want value from AJ, AQ as well.  You can probably raise pot here.  (bet around 60 cents)

Keep in mind as you do this that you aren't really comfortable with a call either.  There are many hands that have you beat.  Many cards to come will have you beat too. You will have to check the turn.

[B]Turn- [/B]As played, check fold.  It's the worst card to come, you have to give up.

[U][B]
Hand 2
[/B][/U][B]Pre- [/B]I'm bad with preflop reraising dynamics... I think with Kings you can cold 4-bet people though.

[B]Flop- [/B]What's up with the min-raising man?  If he's calling a raise there, he'll call a bigger one for sure.

[B]Turn-[/B]  His check raise when the 9 hits is not good, but at the same time there aren't many hands that make sense here.  You block KJ, and this guy probably doesnt have a lot of 8s in his hand.

I think you have to call for the price... but there are very few hands that you beat here.  Again, it's a confusing spot because you didn't 4-bet... his 3-bet was after a min-raise pre, so it's not like a traditional 3-bet.

KKs should always look to gii in micros pre...
