    He claimed he had QJ when I asked although I suspected AQ since he called my raise preflop. When that second Q hit I was seriously pissed because I figured trip 10s would have raised my 1st bet.

    This one I laid down because the aggressor was even tighter than I was: 12.3/6.6 over 100 hands. I also figured that he had to be sitting on at least AA or KK. When a really tight player all of a sudden reraises my reraise I see KK or AA...good read?

    Look fine apart from your 3bet size in the last one which is too small. Make this like .48 pre and fold to a 4bet if you think he's super tight.

    first hand is fine. 2nd hand id just flat this guys early position raise and see a flop. As played 3 bet alot bigger like 0.5 but once he 4 bets you fold.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    Hand 1:At 5NL I'd suspect Q3 more than AQ, people tend to get too excited over big aces here and would probably be a 3-bet pot! IMO Nice fold though.

    Hand 2: Besides the size of your 3-bet, I think you played this correctly. Standard squeeze play when you'll be out of position after the flop, its better to try to gain control of the pot now. I've done it with waaay worse, but given the 4 bet and your read you just ran into a bigger hand. And again nice fold!

    hmm didnt notice u were in the sb, i may also be inclined to not flat and just pump it up to 0.5 and fold to a 4 bet, sqeeeeze.

    Hand #2 I was actually raising to isolate because I wanted the flop to be heads up but then when he came over me I figured screw it. Point taken though, will reraise more next time. Thanks for all the advice folks.
