I rebound like Dennis Rodman!

So I went and caught the preseason opener for the Warriors, they looked bad, and got my mind right. I came home and decided to put in a nice long session. I had Dodgy sweat me for the 1st half and I played some good solid poker but waqs on the recieving end of some sick beats. Then I took a quick break and came back with avengence. I have been CC on the BTN more if I think it will be a multi way pot and completing or calling Minraises from the blinds too. Last night it payed off.

Hand 1: Villain is 73/37/1.4

Flop: ($19) 7c, 9d, 2h (2 players)Hero bets $14, Button raises to $32, Hero raises to $100, Button calls $68.

When this flop peeled off I decided then and there this guy was stacking me if he out flopped me as QQ is never folding here.
Turn: ($201) 8c (2 players)Hero calls $99.60 (All-In), Button calls $52 (All-In).

After he calls he has 52 left and I am shoving any turn. I knew this turn was bad when it hit.
River: ($352.60) 3d (2 players, 2 all-in)
Final Pot: $352.60

Results below: Button has 8h 7d (two pair, eights and sevens). Hero has Qd Qs (one pair, queens). Outcome: Button wins $305. Hero wins $47.60.

WOW! Can you say eeeee-awwwww.

Preflop: Hero is Button with Td, 9d. UTG calls $2, MP raises to $4, Hero calls $4, SB calls $3, BB calls $2, UTG calls $2.

East call on the BTN knowing this was going to be a nice multi way pot.
Flop: ($20) 3h, 9s, Th (5 players)SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP bets $6, Hero raises to $32, SB calls $32, BB folds, UTG folds, MP folds.

Am I raising it to much here? Even though I flopped strong this is a wet flop and I figured it was best to protect my hand and tax anyone who wanted to try and out draw me.
Turn: ($90) 8d (2 players)SB calls $37 (All-In), Hero calls $37.

If you got there good game sir. I call!
River: ($164) 9h (2 players, 1 all-in)
Final Pot: $164
