Default Thinking all Wrong on These 2 BB hands?

$1/$2 Pokerstars

First hand (stacks are all deep):
UTG raises to $6. Folded around to me in the BB. I have A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I call

Flop is K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
I check. He Bets $16. I call with the intention of checking the turn and then setting him all-in hoping he has A,K.

Unfortunately, the turn is Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
I check he bets $16 and I call. The reason I check call is that I am likely ahead he will flail on himself. But if I raise he will likely fold. If he has a Q I lose the minimum.

River is the K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
I check, he bets $16, and I call.

Do you play this hand differently?

Hand 2 (stacks are all deep).
Early and late limper. I take a free ride in the BB with.
10[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

3 take the flop of:
5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
I have a straight draw, 2 over cards, and I likely kill anyone with a 8 if the 9 comes. But, I am out out of position with a draw.

I check, early limper checks, and the button makes it $5 into a $3.5 pot. I check-raise him to $15, overbetting the pot to try and steal it right there. Early player and raise both call. Yikes.

About $50 in the pot.
Turn in 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I check, EP checks, and button bets $8. Both call. Anyone fold here?

River is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

I check, EP bets $8, late Player goes all-in for $50. I fold and early player calls.

Early player has quad 7s and late player has Full house 5s over 7s.

Anyone play this differently?
