Some hands I'd like insight on

Alright, so I'm playing $0.25 / 0.50 NLHE on fulltilt. It's a 6 handed game and I'm giving off a TAG style. Raising every pot that I enter first and typically turning over good hands.

This one wasn't a big deal.. it happens, but my question to you birds is. Do you typically slow play your sets or bet them outright? I find if I bet out I usually find myself not making as much as I could, but then again.. in the opposite direction. What happened above can happen.

Here's another hand that got me the majority of that loss back

Seems had I played both of the set hands opposite of each other I would have come out more on top, of course I guess I'll never know for sure What do you all think?

As a side note: I lost my first $25 buyin and then rebought for another $25 and cashed out $52.40 .. $2.40 for the night :P better than being down right? ha
