Had an amazing run of cards so far today.
In the space of 400 hands I have had AA 4 time, KK twice, QQ 5 times and JJ 3 times.
A couple of questions about two of my QQ hands - one I won and one I folded.
First the one I won:
Paradise Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>
Button ($133.00)
SB ($69.50)
BB ($111.00)
Hero ($120.50)
MP ($44.50)
Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $4.5</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $7.5</font>, Hero calls $3.50.
Flop: ($16.50) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $10</font>, Hero calls $10.
Turn: ($36.50) T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $20</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $40</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $102.5</font>, BB folds.
Final Pot: $179
I didn't have him on a made hand.
Question is: should I have waited to push until the river or was I right to push there?
Hand two:

<font color="#C00000">BB ($99.00)</font>
UTG ($41.00)
Preflop: Hero is SB with Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif. Hero posts a blind of $0.50.

Flop: ($20) 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets $5</font>, Button calls $5, Hero calls $5, BB calls $5, UTG folds.

<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $15</font>, Button calls $15.
Final Pot: $102
Results:
BB has Th Jh (high card, ace).
Button has Jc Ac (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Button wins $102.
Not quite sure what BB was up to there.
I had to fold the turn because of the ace.
Question is: with button down as a fairly aggressive pre-flop player should I have re-raised him and maybe taken him out of the hand before the flop?
