I have moved your hands to our hand discussion forum. There fits it better.
First hand is standard I think. 2nd hand seems optimistic to call him down or you have sick reads on him, but he seems fishy based on his play in the first hand.

Cheers,

Nice hands -- with that stack size why not call down?

In 2nd hand he beats only jack high or worse and that's tough to call down without any info of him. Especially in a micro HU without info of him.
