The first hand you have only 45% chance to win, ofcourse he has about 25%.
A7 os is not a strong hand preflop and definately after a 3xBB raise. You raise up to 2100 and your opponent calls. He plays very bad after your large raise with A2 s. But preflop i cant say he makes a bad raise, i would probably play the same way, not after the re-raise by you.
I cannot really say it's a bad beat or so because of the odds, your very unlucky and he does not play it well.

The second hand he is 60-35 and some percent of a tie.

You have A3, you have a straight and a flush oppertunity preflop. But after a raise that sets you allin preflop A3 s is not a great hand any more. If he gots a pocket pair you would probalby just have the ace to rely on. Your not short stacked in the tourney and the blinds are not high reffered to your stacksize. So i don't think it's a very good call.

But you are vrey unlucky at the rivercard. You are 88% to win your opponent only 2% and he gets it.

I saw a worse one at WPT last year i think. He was 0.5% of winning after the flop. He catches to runner 7s and makes the four of a kind.

Both of your hands are junk. You want to see the flop cheap with them, if you can't get that, fold them.

You CAN open raise with them from late position, but you don't act against a raise with them unless it is against someone who is raising with literally anything.

I agree with Adaon.

But I gotta tell ya - I wouldn't be caught dead with hands like that, unless I'm blinded all in.

cheers

I cant believe what i'm hearing from you guys!!!! If I'm not mistaken this is "heads-up" play. Any Ace in heads up play (even A-3s) is a very good hand. Which hands are you guys gonna wait for in heads up play? (AK-suited in which you have a 331:1 chance of flopping that or how about AK-offsuit in which you'll get dealt that once every 110 hands)

On the first hand The guy totally sucked out on him. The game should of been over right there. And while the second hand the opponent had the advantage preflop, once the flop hit he was appx. a 97% favorite to win the hand.

Dont sweat it >>D<< . I hear where your coming from on this one.

Its alright guys. Thats what i dont like about the HH Converter. It does not give u all the needed info.
My tourny games as of late have been horrible. It seems like the only way i bust out is if someone sucks out on me. Im not gonna start crying about it and post HHs of every tourny i get sucked out on, im kinda getting used to it.
Thanks for the support anyways.

I'm sorry, I did think this was a ring game.

That does make a world of difference, but I like to be careful with any hand that could easily be dominated. You are not doing well against many hands he would play back against you with. Play them, but tread a little lightly. I think I'm taking the first hand to 700 instead of all in.
