Yeah, yeah, I know that it is best to post one hand per thread, but these two hands are extremely similar, only position and opponents are different
Did I play these situations correctly?
I rather think that that in the second hand it might have been better to see a flop.
Let me know...
Hand #1:
CO is playing 32/20/0 (VPIP/PFR/3Bet) I am 26/20/13 (only 40 hands)
I 4Bet here just over 3x, with the intention of folding to a shove if necessary — partly since I would be playing OOP post-flop, and partly because I had observed CO's play and figured I would need to hit a set to continue.

Pre-Flop: ($0.35) Hero is MP with J♣:J♥:

Total pot: $4.35 (Rake: $0)
MP (Hero) wins $4.35
Hand #2:
BB is playing 48/40/9 over 50 hands, and has been splashy, getting aggro post-flop then exiting.
Here I go all-in pre-flop, since to 4Bet a smaller amount, would pave the way for BB to shove, and I would rather shove first.
