$2nl AK how to play it preflop?
 

I was playing my session today and had these 2 hands come up both of them I have AK and just was not sure what to do. Any information given is appreciated.

In the first hand villain is 27/24. Combined with the action pf how often is this aces? Should I be playing this differently?

This second hand is really weird I am not sure if I should be re raising here or if calling is the best play. I think once I miss the flop folding is the only action. Any comments are once again appreciated.

the villain who reraises is 52/29
the cold caller after me is 37/5

Re: couple of different AK hands better way to play?
 

hand 1. just get it in on flop.. don't minraise.. you have a better hand most of the time against that villain

hand 2. fine...
