definitely raise the turn. If you think the guy will call a raise preflop, raise there too.

Preflop I would have raised. Here you can see how much he likes his hand. You can raise it up to .8 or $1 and see if he reraises you. If he does, go all-in. Or you can just go all in right away. Lots of people (at this level) will go all in with about anything. AK, AQ, AJ, AA, KK, QQ, JJ (and sometimes any PP) are all possible for people to go all in with. It’s crazy, and fun when you hold KK, AA.

Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

Hehehehehe. I wish people did that at the NL$100 level.

As for the original hand, calling preflop is okay since you are in late position and there are few people to act after you. Most of the time you want to raise this, though.

I would reraise the flop until he either ended the betting by calling or we were both all-in. I don't like the flush draw on the board at that point.

If I had any money left on the turn, it's all going in.

What Zangy said. Draws are good to keep in, but for a price. Don't ever give people the chance of free or cheap cards with an overpair like this. People will bet their flush draws.

Also, I like how in the first hand the villain swears and acts like it's a bad beat.

That turn bet is meaningless, $1 raise into a $7 pot, this man does not like his hand to move all in but if you push him he will do it, definatley someone whos not sure that their TPTK is the best hand. He is indirectly telling you, "please take my money", your response should be " Yes sir."
