I call both of these hands.
2. seems pretty standart to me cant find a fold here for any reason (its not even bubble time, rarely I fold AK pf vs one random fish)
1. Yes there are a lot of worse aces out there wich would play this way. And I does not look like twopair/better, these hands often just call IP to push over your turn bet (or call your push)

hand 2: looks good..normally I bet t275, but t300 is fine

I agree with this. Him pushing in to the other huge stack seems kinda strong, no?

hand 1: read dependent, but I tend to call.
hand 2: I would say instacall, looks like Big stack is bullying you out, he wouldn't do that with premium hand.

150 preflop is fine. I might do 200 also for 1st hand and call his all in on the flop. More than likely I call 2nd hand also, but a good read here would be nice too.

Hand 1. This is standard against a loose player. Every so often there weaker Ace will 2 pair up.

Hand 2: Villians range would need to be something like 44+,A7s+,KJs+,A9o+ for this to be good. You need to be 55% here against his range. You have a read that he is loose but is he really reraising here that loose ??

Both hands seem standard to me in a 16, especially if the villains are loose.
