Default Re: two big hands

With your first hand, I don't think it's so much the draws you want to be worried about, but the over cards. With a low flop and a small bet, I am raising with AJo, KJo, KQ. I am also raising with two spades on the board with any two overcard spades.

As for hand two, I am raising with QQ as well. The size of the stacks here is important, and I am curious as to how much the player who called your all in had left. If they are short stacked, they are probably going all in regardless of what you do.
QQ should hold up 53.5% of the time against 2 unknown hands.
AKo 38.6%
KJo 33.6%

I think you made the right move in raising. Again, going all in is more determinate on stack sizes.
