With those pot odds & implied odds, plus the chance that Hero's opponent is making a play with a draw or weaker hand on the flop, neither is a terrible flop call. You also don't want to bet/fold a lot of flops for metagame reasons. Plus, in hand 2 Hero is holding a backdoor to the 2nd nut flush.

Of course, in hand 1 one of Hero's two outs completes the potential flush draw which is one of the hands we're hoping villian holds.

EDIT because Hero is holding the Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in hand 1, again giving him the backdoor draw & making both of his set outs likely good.
