Your first query, could it be that you dont have any reference between the two tables?
You should have a link between them, like where t1.id=t2id Or else you do not have any reasonable way of predicting the outcome of the query. Atleast this is what I know from my own experience. Especially if t2 has more entries for each entry in t1, your query will result in unpredictable manner.
