Default $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?

CO ($5.01)
Hero ($2.88)
SB ($6.41)
BB ($2.90)
UTG ($2.90)
MP ($2.90)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $0.02, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $0.08</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.26</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP folds, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $0.7</font>, Hero calls $0.44.

Flop: ($1.45) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">CO bets $0.7</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $1.6</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $4.31</font>, Hero calls $0.58 (All-In).

Turn: ($7.94) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: ($7.94) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $7.94



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

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