thanks for any and all advice,

Hand 1: I fold. I'm not going to play a weak draw at this point.

Hand 2: I'd just call preflop. I really hate to play a big pot with a Q or K on the flop. I call his all in.

I think I would fold hand 1. I don't want to lose too much at this stage in the game holding just a draw. If you had QJ instead then I would play it different.

Hand 2 I think I call this all-in although you might be losing to AA-QQ but I've seen this bluff a lot at the 11s and many times he'll have 77-1010 or AK-KJ

#1 - Fold. Pot odds are not good enough and there are almost no implied odds on this hand. If you make your hand you will only get action from hands that either split the pot or beat you.

#2 If your going to raise pre-flop you need to raise more. Players at this level will not fold for 50 more when they have 30 in the pot. Your small raise creates a bigger pot without giving you any information on villians hand. He may very well have 67s or A6s because your raise would not force these hands out. You still have to call here as you will see smaller pockets and overcard flush draws quite often.
