I know i should have cheked the 2nd one the turn but the hand just before he had "AJ" i figured out there were little chances he had an ace again

Advice for next time?
Bet flop check fold turn?

The fact that he held certain cards last hand has no bearing on the likelihood that he holds them this hand. This is a pretty basic probability issue. If we flip a coin four times and it comes up heads every time, the chance that it comes up heads on the fifth flip is still 1/2.

These both seem like bad spots to double-barrel. C/f would be better unless you had some kind of specific read. If your opponent is very loose after the flop, punish him by value-betting good hands.
