For hand 2, I think the most critical decision is the one on the turn. If I call the turn, then I am pretty much calling the river almost always. But is calling the turn just spewy, given that villain called my flop raise? Timing tell: villain insta betted the turn, and insta-AI'd the river.

Hand 1) Looks good. I normally fold to the 4bet without history. We have about 40% equity vs. a range of QQ+, AK.

Hand 2) I normally just flat call his flop lead since the board isn't too drawy. If I'm raising there it's because I really want to get my stack in. Turn card isn't great, though I'm not sure what to make of his small bet.

man, I don't think I can pitch QQ that easily vs an agressive player. Maybe if there is absoutly no history between you guys, but I still think im probably gonna play the ladies.

hand 2 really looks like a set on the turn. You say hes a solid winning player, so I would doubt he is leading w/ less than a set. board is not really drawish so I would have to put him on 2 pair+. I like the flop raise, but I think im shutting down after he calls.

also i think if ur calling the turn here, you can't fold the river.

Please keep in mind that he is opening/4betting UTG. This severely narrows his range. I doubt he is doing this with, say, JJ.

Yes, I had the timer run down on the turn. I was pretty much thinking exactly what you say here. Suppose I should have had discipline to fold it - got shown 22 obv.

Flop raise is for value, against say, AT. Plan is to then have villain check, and I check behind a blank turn. Then call around 1/2 PSB on river by villain bluffing/trying to get value out of one pair. Anybody dislike this sort of line?
