Two recent 1/2 Hands. Thoughts on the lines?
Hand 1:
ME: I've been sitting at the table for about 2 hours now. I'm definitely considered one of the tighter players at the table and have one of the larger stacks ($600ish). Villain in this hand doubled me up within my first 30 minutes at the table when I flopped a straight with AQ and he flopped two pair with KJ and we got it in on the turn. I've seen him raise hands out of the blinds like K6s and T9o. He currently has about 1k in front of him.

Hand 2
Directly follows Hand 1
Villain is a mid 30ish tag asian regular. Plays tight pre flop but is very aggressive post flop. Recently folded a $500 pot on the river for $100 to another player at the table who promptly showed him a bluff. He has about $400 behind. I cover.
Villain open limps in MP. Two more limpers. Hero is in CO and looks down at A
T
Hero raises to $15. (This has been my standard raise throughout the session with 1-3 limpers already in the pot.) Button and blinds fold. Villain and 2 limpers call.
Pot ($63) Flop K
T
3
Check to Hero who fires $25. Villain Calls. Limpers Fold.
Pot ( $113) Turn T
Check to Hero who bets $50. Villain Raises to $125. Hero Shoves and Villain Calls (Is this shove correct or do I flat and wait to see what he does on the river. My gut tells me I should have flatted)
results in white
I show trip Ts and Villain mucks and leaves the table. He claimed to have KT but I doubt that very much.
