 1) No reads. Fold flop? Actually I should have folded preflop. Every street here sucks.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($143.10)
UTG ($102.35)
Button ($100)
SB ($100.50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J, A.
1 fold, Button raises to $4, 1 fold, Hero calls $3.

Flop: ($8.50) A, T, Q (2 players)
Hero bets $6, Button raises to $18, Hero calls $12.

Turn: ($44.50) 3 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $26, Hero raises to $121.1


2) Villain seems decent. He's 22/14/1.4 over 100 hands. Stacks make this hand trickier? Do I check behind the turn and plan to call most rivers, or should I bet/fold?

Hand 1:
I would 3-bet it..calling isn't a huge mistake though and folding is an option too.
As played, I'd c/r the flop...maybe c/c lead any turn.
As played I like your turn.

Hand 2:
Bet more on the flop?
I would probably b/c the turn. I hate giving free cards in this spot.
But I'd like to hear some thoughts why checking behind is good, especially given stack sizes.

 hand 1: if villain is an aggro button opener, then i 3-bet this all day. I c/c flop alot here to keep the pot under control also. As played i like the turn with the extra outs.

hand 2: $25 on the flop and bet each street.

1. 3-bet pre-flop. c/c flop, as played fold to raise. As played I don't like the turn c/push b/c you're giving him 3:1 to call and he's probably only folding three hands in his range (AK, no club). I guess I c/c or c/f turn... pot odds aren't there to call, tough to decide if implied are.

2. Bet flop more, bet turn and safe river.
