Default Two 10+1 hands. How\'d I play them?

It really sucks not having a hand converter.

Hand 1

7 hands into tourney so no reads

Level 1: Blinds 10/15

I am dealt Jc, Jd

Fold, Fold, UTG+2(770) raises to 49, 3folds, CO(885) calls , Button folds, and Hero(770) calls 39, BB folds

I was thinking about reraising here but I figured it's early in the tourney and I didn't want to risk too many chips. Is that weak?

152 in pot
Flop: 8c, Kc, 5s

Hero checks, UTG+2 bets 97, CO folds, Hero calls.

I was thinking about raising but once again, I don't want to risk too many chips too early, however now I'm thinking that I might lose more by calling here and not getting any info that way.

Pot 346

Turn 6s
Hero bets 225...

What do you guys think of this hand? Should I have reraised the flop? Pre-flop?


Hand 2

Level 3: Blinds 25/50

I am dealt Ac, Jh

UTG folds, Hero(830) raises 150, UTG+2 all in for 380, 6 folds, BB(861) calls 330, Hero goes all in for 680...

A note on BB: my read on him is that he is loose. Not overly loose where he plays anything, but what I like to call WSOP loose. Early on in the tourney he pushed All in with A10o. He thinks highly of hands like Ax, Kx, suited connectors and the like.

I sensed that he didn't have anything strong here, and I was n't particularly worried about UTG+2 here, since he didn't have many chips and blinds are soon to be 100. Was my push a good move? I understand that I wasn't that low on chips but I decided to take a shot at doubling up now, before the blinds go to 50/100.

Was that a good play?
