$0.10 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

I've been in a downswing as of late and reviewed some hand histories. I realized I was playing a little too LAG...I played a more TAG this session and it payed off...

April 12, 2008, 11PM: Lost $7.90 at Full Tilt Poker
Texas Hold'em

I'm currently deep in 3 3.30 90-person KO, deepstack turbos, but my girlfriend's "stomach hurts" so I have to go. Damn...that really pisses me off....I'm running bad right now and about to probably break my bad run with these three tournies and can't continue....fucking sucks...
 
(It's -7.90 because I made 2.00 off of bounties)

April 9, 2008, 5PM: Played 1 hour, 5 minutes, Lost $91.85 at Full Tilt Poker
$0.10/0.20 Texas Hold'em

This was by far my biggest loss ever. I decided to take a shot at .10/.25 because I felt my NL cash game was pretty on recently. I pulled up two tables and started. At first, I played fairly tight and just got coolered on a few hands (losing with two pair to higher two pair). Then these hands down here just killed me:
 
Full Tilt Poker Game #5970895029: Table Stanford (6 max) - $0.10/$0.25 - No Limit Hold'em - 20:10:47 ET - 2008/04/09

Seat 4: Pur3_C0k3 ($25)
Seat 5: Runner60 ($44.80), is sitting out

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to NatePring [5d 5s]
xeN1337 folds
steinz_rostock folds
lobsterr raises to $0.85
NatePring raises to $2.80
 
The reason I three-bet here is because I had been REALLY tight at this table and lobsterr had been fairly aggressive.
 
Pur3_C0k3 folds
lobsterr has 15 seconds left to act
lobsterr raises to $7
 
When he 4-bets me, I know he has a fairly big hand (AA, KK, QQ, AK, and maybe JJ). I probably shouldn't have called here, but I had a lot of implied odds against his big stack, and I was sort of tilting from my other table, haha.
 
NatePring calls $4.20
*** FLOP *** [Qd 6c 8h]
NatePring checks
lobsterr bets $37.10, and is all in
 
Now what does he do this with? AA = no. KK = no. QQ = NO. JJ = if he is an idiot which I don't think he fully is. AK = YES. I have seen it a million times. Now I know it's still a coin flip, but I'm ahead at the moment so I call.
And lose...
NatePring calls $19.10, and is all in
lobsterr shows [Ac Kd]
NatePring shows [5d 5s]
Uncalled bet of $18 returned to lobsterr

Board: [Qd 6c 8h Ad 8c]
Seat 1: steinz_rostock didn't bet (folded)
Seat 2: lobsterr (button) showed [Ac Kd] and won ($49.85) with two pair, Aces and Eights

This next hand was just sick. I was waiting for my opportunity to double up. I get AA...and get them snapped....
