I had a nice wee sesh at the Cincins £1/£1 game last night. I played pretty well but these are two hands I have my doubts over. One im pretty sure was bad play, the other I think it was marginal.

Me Seat 1 £800  Dealt   

Seat 3 Posts blind £1
Seat 4 Posts blind £1
Seat 5 Folds
Seat 6 £420 Calls £1
Seat 7 Calls £1
Seat 8 Raises to £6
Seat 1 Calls £6
Seat 2 Raises to £25
Seat 3 folds
Seat 4 folds
Seat 6 Raises to £60
folds round to seat 2

Now I've played with my opponent a number of times. He's a decent player but despite his stack hes stuck several hundred in this game and I, having aquired a few chips, have moved into full on LAG mode, raising and reraising fairly liberally and not showing too much. Against an unknown I would assume AK AA KK but given that the reraise is not immediate and I've never seen him slowplay a big hand like this before and given what I know about this guy and what I think he thinks about me I put him on an under pair, JJ 10 10 most likely, 99 88 maybe and AQ maybe. Now I feel very strongly about this read but I flat call, believing he puts me on AK or a middle pair, definitely not QQ.

Pot= £135
Flop:

   

Seat 6 bets £100

 Now usually I would pack here but I still believe my read is spot on- either I'm ahead or I think I can force AQ to laydown by representing AK so I insta-jam it to £350 here. Almost straightaway he calls. OK, now I think my read is complete balls and he has AK KK AA but:

   pop out, I show the queens  for the flush and he mucks (very) disgustedly. I assume then he had AQ. Have I played this badly from start to finish  or have I played it ok but simply overestimated the chances of an AQ laydown?

Another hand later, I limp utg with    (£1300) , slight maniac on my left (£550) pops it to £25, it folds round to the SB (£350) who reraises to £65. BB (£300) calls and then the OR calls out of turn. Now with the stacks being what they are, the table being fairly loose and the pot being £195 is this a call or fold? I was leaning towards a call til the OR so quickly called but I folded only to see a jackpot 9 high rainbow flop pop out, the OR and SB getting the chips in and showing AQ and 44 (it was that kind of night).
 
Sorry this post drags on, opinions please.

1st one why are we not re raising with queens here to start off with surely you are ahead of the original raisor range and queens play horribly in multiway pot. Im just shoving once it gets re raised again, knowing that this is quite a low limit live game.

On the flop is a simple pass surely.

2nd hand is a fold given stacks i think.

The first one is a massive fold on the flop and a reraise pre-flop for me.

The second one in a very loose game I go set mining here so it's a call for me pre-flop hoping that the flop comes down the way i like it (which admittedly more often then not it won't but the implied odds in a game like that are massive)
