Two hands from LIVE 5k max-buy in private home game

I would raise hand 1 just because I had preflop initiative and believe that I can take him off his mid pocket pair on the flop a very large % of the time.

Hand 2, what is the question? His most likely hand is a flush and you went runner runner full house. It's not like you're super deep and have to worry about a 4-bet with 200 bb stacks or something. Just put it in and expect to be good most of the time.
