This hand irratates me for various reasons. Guy chases everyone and everything and I for sure thought I had him and even placed a large bet in late position and this guy just chases and check this out or should I have seen this coming

Reasoning behind bet, I was short stacked less than 10bb and needed to make some time up. I had got into it with this guy earlier and I feel he bluffed me out of pot that I was in late position of. Same story here I was in late position and I place a large preflop bet to tell everyone to fold and this guy

Oh well - Pack it in and forget it. I dont know what to say except CAke seemed to be rewarding this guy for bad behavior.

I got to figure out when to change things up because Im still having trouble getting my stacks up

I feel like there is nothin common between both hands.
In the first one, you decided that AJos was good enough to push AI, not considering what your opponent had, when most good players would have lay it down after the pre-flop raise, not saying i would have.
Then in the second hand your "M" dictate you move (Red Zone) and your opponent play too. No much need to argue on that one, unlucky you were.

Just one point i'd like to tell you about is that we would appreciate you to post all infos about the hand like your opponent stack size, level of blinds, pot size when you have to take the decision, places to ITM, and more infos, if you ever have some more to tell us like opponents behaviours.

I just wanted to steal blinds on this one and being late, I figured I had strong pockets. Tried to force out the 300 bet preflop but got called. Did the other player use good judgement as I would of folded that hand. I guess I should of bet less and checked out the scene first before committing as I could of folded only 300 chips down instead of busted

Thanks and check my other threads and help me polish my game
