Some more 50nl hands - I run well
Just wanted to start off by saying this was my best session ever, leaving up nearly 4 buyins, it was sweet. :) But I had some very difficult decisions during this session, some of which I made mistakes in.
Hand 1: I had gotten AA back to back and each time took down a nice pot, and the very next hand I get QQ. UTG raises and I repop to 6, standard. He calls. Turn was a blank and he checked, for pot control reasons and also I didn't think many worse hands would call another bet besides AJ or something, so I checked behind. The river was a terrible card and he lead into me. I didn't think I was ahead so I folded and he showed the bluff. Was this laydown good in the long run? Should I have lead the turn? Opinions are wanted.

Hand 2: This hand accounted for most of my winnings, lol. As soon as I got raised I wanted to fold, but I thought there was a good chance he had QJ, so I pushed. Maybe a raise to 20 is better but for whatever reason I shoved. As soon as the first caller moved in I knew I was dead, the other guy called and I knew one if not both of them had KT. The turn made me jump in the air but the river Q dashed my hopes since I figured a better full house was made. For some reason they pushed the pot towards me. :) I know it's never good to go broke in an unraised pot, but I thought there was a good chance I had the best hand. I was obviously totally wrong and hit my four outer. Anybody fold that flop to the raise?
