10000+ MTT I was down to the final 400 and was one of two big stacks at the table.
Hi there looking for some expert advice please, I'm having trouble going extra deep I
get a comfortable stack in most tourneys and my ITM rate is okay but I never get deep.
Just wondering how I should've played this hand please be specific if you have advice.

It was tough to put him on a two pair on that flop. I thought it was a pretty loose reraise
but I regret not isolating against the SB shortstack who shoved what do you guys think?
Also another hand in a cash game NL25.
I flop top set and don't feel I got max profit out of it. Please let me know how I should play
this and how much I should be when I bet when I call etc. please be specific.

Dealing Flop [6s 9h 5c]
aggresor bets $1.50. (Cbet it seemed obvious he missed the board)
HERO raises to $6.35. (I think this is a good bluff amount so I hoped he would think I was or
that he had an overpair but unfortunately I scared him off)
Aggressor folds.
HERO wins $4.61
My question is what is the optimal play here?
Do I slowplay and call his cbet then hope he cbets the turn where I can throw in a raise?
How much should I reraise by on the flop and or on the turn?
