I think I played this one ok except for perhaps the turn call... He had a big hand and obviously wanted the flush draw out, but with top pair as well I figured I has a few more outs. What do I do?

Here I'm mainly looking at my preflop play... Villain is to my immediate left and is 15/11 over ~50 hands and has been playing back at me a bit...

Preflop - re raise small, re raise all in or call?

[jdefoe]

I lead the turn on the second one...looking for a free card, or maybe you can check/raise all in on the turn and put the pressure on your opponent. River is a must fold

[lazeeesunday]

By second one you mean first one right?

[thac]

I don't like a turn lead on the first hand because he can raise us out of our draw easily. If he has KK, TT, or 55 he can raise freely knowing that we caught our Ace most likely. Granted, he bet pot (overbet it slightly) so he doesn't want you drawing, and he knows you might have the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I check and call a smallish bet on the turn, not one this big though.

Hand 2 I fold preflop. You have huge reverse implied odds. If he has QQ-JJ and it's a A87 flop, he'll maybe c-bet, but he won't put any more money in. Or if it's an AJ2 flop, he'll bet huge with JJ and check or fold QQ on the turn after a c-bet (if he doesn't check flop). If no ace or king comes, you have to fold, costing you almost 10% of a buyin.

Folding AK pf to a player who reraises somewhat frequently seems way too nitty to me.

[thac]

It's 50 hands, can you really go off of that? "Playing back at me a bit" probably means he got reraised twice. I just don't like it. You won't win a big pot if he's reraising you light either unless you get lucky and catch an A93 flop against AQ.
