The turn call in #1 depends on how tricky he's likely to be here. Someone not at the table can't tell you whether to fold, call, or raise here. I'm much more inclined to call against someone who thinks I'm good enough to fold there, if that makes sense.

#2 I can't really fault your line. Yeah it sucks he called, you probably lost, but that's the price of aggression. Again table dynamics play the biggest part in the decision to bet the turn and river.

didnt look at results yet. (better if you don't post them)
i think number 1 is ok. In number 2 I think check/folding is the best line, then maybe check/calling (wouldbe much better if u had an ace) over bet/folding. It looks like hes determined to call you down on a board with no draws meaning he must have something, at least ace high. HU i doubt he fold. or he might have worse than king high and bluff at ya. But check/folding seems far superior.
