Default 3-6 & 2-4 NL AA and KK hands

These hands taught me a lesson today can anybody guess what it was?

Only played 24 hands with this opponent haven't really gotten a read on this play yet. Whats his range if hes on the loose aggressive side or if hes a bit nitty.

Opponent is a good regular.

On the turn with this hand I knew the turn would define weather he had me or not, is this one of those situations where your stacking off any way so you check or keeping pushing hard for value even this deep.
One thing I questioned this hand is weather I should have raise more PF to define my opponents hand OOP so I could possible escape AA this deep and not let QQ draw for a set so cheaply.

your bet sizes seem odd.
hand 1: bet less on flop. fold turn, buts its close.
hand2: bet 220 on flop, more on turn and call AI.

hand 21 is a fold. Shove hand 2, and flop bet is fine.

In hand 2 with 200 bbs I think I should be about to get away from KK if I really feel my opponent couldn't have any hand but aces here and I think I could have established that for certain with a bigger 4-bet PF. Most good regulars are mucking QQ Below &amp; AK but choose to slow play AA in this spot.

Just for theories sake if my opponent is a super predictable nit and I make it 80 more, his hand range might include 1010-QQ because hes in position and is closer to having odds to call, Right?. When hes faced with a more hand defining raise like 180 more and he calls this ranges falls quickly into the realm of slowed played AA, then when he tries to get it in post flop you could possibly get away?
