I think the worse is the 2nd hand on the turn, the donk doesn't accomplish anything. I'm either check calling down or folding. If you're donking and calling down against a raise you definitely should be just check calling down.

The first hand I don't dig the turn checkraise unless this guy is predictable and won't bluff/semi bluff 3 bet and also won't bluff a hand you're beating on the river if you just calldown. Against this guy with the read I just call down and let him throw his money away.

Although I'd fold it preflop, the J7o hand isn't that bad, it's probably only marginally unprofitable (the PF call) and I like postflop play.
