______________________________________
Hand No.1
In this first hand with pocket aces, is it reasonable for me to bet the turn as I did, with four hearts on board? Is my call of his all-in reasonable afterwards? I figured I was getting over 4:1 and he could be pushing with a big pair or on a bluff or draw, and I also had the nut flush draw.

DaDragon is a 37|5
$0.05/$0.1 No Limit Holdem
8 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG Gamer135 ($10.55)
UTG+1 gunnar1986 ($5.65)
MP1 DaDragan ($10.70)
MP2 Hero ($10.00)
CO schero66 ($18.15)
BTN Gipsy6666 ($10.70)
SB Ger_Bluff ($10.15)
BB imph4t ($1.85)

Pre-flop: ($0.15, 8 players) Hero is MP2
2 folds, DaDragan calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.50, schero66 calls $0.50, 3 folds, DaDragan calls $0.40

Flop: ($1.65, 3 players)
DaDragan checks, Hero bets $1.60, schero66 calls $1.60, DaDragan calls $1.60

Turn: ($6.45, 3 players)
DaDragan checks, Hero bets $4.75, schero66 folds, DaDragan goes all-in $8.60, $3.15 to Hero ($3.15)?

______________________________________
Hand No.2
In this hand I thought that I would try a shove with an over, a gutshot, and a nut flush draw. Was my push pure spew?

Pre-flop: ($0.15, 9 players) Hero is BTN
1 fold, esingl008 calls $0.10, ddufuss calls $0.10, 2 folds, tom_of_theU calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.70, 2 folds, esingl008 folds, ddufuss calls $0.60, tom_of_theU folds

hand no1. not too spewy since you have the Ah, but i'd consider c/cing a small bet or c/fing since we're multiway here

hand no2. check back the turn and hope to improve. 6s is not the card you want to two barrel with

 Hand 1
I'd call the shove, odds are reasonable. He may hit a straight flush sometimes, but there may be times when he holds KhQx and is shoving thinking he may improve enough. I think there's too much invested to fold here.

Hand 2.
I agree, I'd just take the free card and hope to improve. Maybe we'll get some money out of him at the river if he holds the Qs

 I worry about straight flush draws when they take potential outs away from us.

Hand 1:

Two villians call the flop. On the turn the most obvious draw gets there. With one opponent, I would go ahead and bet it. With two opponents, it's time for a little pot control....I would check the turn.

 DA9ers do you go to SU? Have you ever been to turning stone?

Sorry to go a little off topic but I saw the orange SU and thought it was cool there's another person in this forum who maybe goes to my school or is at least a Syracuse fan (#8 mens basketball right now)
