$1 NLHE STT: $1 SNG - 2 hands that get me everytime

[RossMk2]

Always seem to get stumped by these two starting hands and now im taking analysis seriously i'd thought i'd post here to see what your views are:

Full Tilt - $1+$0.20|30/60 NL - Holdem - 7 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3
SB: 1,315.00
BB: 1,560.00
UTG: 3,665.00
UTG+1: 980.00
MP: 1,155.00
CO: 3,065.00
Hero (BTN): 1,760.00
SB posts SB 30.00, BB posts BB 60.00
Pre Flop: (90.00) Hero has K♥ A♠
fold, fold, fold, CO raises to 180.00, Hero calls 180.00, fold, fold
Flop: (450.00, 2 players) K♦ 8♣ 9♦
CO checks, Hero bets 300.00, CO calls 300.00
Turn: (1050.00, 2 players) 6♦
CO checks, Hero checks
River: (1050.00, 2 players) J♣
CO bets 420.00, Hero calls 420.00

Dont know if i was being too soft with a turn check, then found myself not being able to fold the river bet.

Next up, 10's i struggle with:

Full Tilt - $1+$0.20|25/50 NL - Holdem - 8 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3
UTG: 1,505.00
UTG+1: 1,600.00
Hero (MP): 1,500.00
MP+1: 1,320.00
CO: 1,265.00
BTN: 1,380.00
SB: 3,200.00
BB: 1,730.00
SB posts SB 25.00, BB posts BB 50.00
Pre Flop: (75.00) Hero has T♠ T♥
UTG raises to 100.00, UTG+1 raises to 200.00, Hero calls 200.00, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, UTG calls 100.00
Flop: (675.00, 3 players) 4♥ 3♥ 2♦
UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets 450.00, fold, UTG+1 raises to 1,400.00 and is all-in, Hero ???

With the action behind pre-flop i felt UTG:AQ & UTG+1:AK (Might sound rich now i know, but its true) as UTG only called the re-raise. Would you have folded PF, or could you have even folded on the flop?

Thanks for your time.

Hand 1:
Go all-in preflop. Don't understand what you're doing postflop. Raise the flop, bet the turn.
Hand 2:
Probably a fold preflop.

Hand 1: All in with 29BB behind?

Hand 2: I find myself too attached to TT i think!

yes, generally don't call 1/10th of your stack with any hand unless it's KK+ and you're trying to trap against an aggro or there are like 5 people already in. as played getting it in with TT on the flop is ok but don't cold-call reraises with TT (shoving pre is OK, but usually folding).

I deleted the results from the hand, in the future PLEASE don't post the results in the original post. It will lead people to give subjective answers, which isn't going to help you in the long run.

In the first hand, I think calling is fine. Raising all-in isn't -$EV, but in general if the pot is ~20% of my stack and I want to play the hand, I will raise-all in. Here I think we're a little short of that, so I am fine with calling.

As played, shove the turn.

In the second hand, definitely muck it preflop. I'm not even sure how to play it post-flop... Lemme get back to you on that one.
