I'm having trouble with betting the turn ...
No.1

No read on opp and I suppose this is a possible preflop fold. What is an appropriate size bet here? I've hit one of my outs but obviously it is possibly dirty.

Then, what on the river?

No. 2

Bullblaster is pretty aggro when it comes to pairing an ace (no matter the kicker)... did I play this ok, or do I need a stronger turn bet?

Do you call the river?
