A few hands for review (AK and KQ run into resistance)

SB was sLAG and the BB was a calling station.

I called on the flop with my inside straight draw and my two overcards, I think that was fine.

On the turn, I had no idea what I was up against, but I figured I was ahead and I went all-in, I figured I am paying-off the BB's remaining 6$ anyway, even if the heart or spade falls...

Anybody fold the flop on this hand? Anybody just call the turn re-raise instead of re-raising?

my opponent was a TAG

What do you do with the check-raise? I put him on a flush draw, I don't think he has two pair, so I figure I'll put him to the test...

Opponent was pretty tight and not very aggressive.

Should I just call the raise on the flop or was the re-raise to put him all-in good?
