Hand 1 is a good example of great river play imo.

you read what you thought he had, what he thought you had and went to the next level to say you know he'd try to win the pot to represent the ace by c'ring you on the river and would also likely call with whatever he had till that point and would almost certainly bet an ace, and he would have likely made a move w/ a jack sooner.

the flop/turn combo are debateable but close. personally i tend to call the flop a bit more in this spot but raise w/ QQ on down.

hand 2 is well played all around. betting the river is close but i htink there's enough value there to bet/call. sure you lose to a flush but given your turn play and the fact you have the ace, even a small flush may now just call...which is a reason why the turn 3 bet is also good.
