Ok I didn’t do too many calculations on your math but a brief look I can’t see you are too far out.

The only thing is I think you are playing too passive. In the 1st scenario I am betting and re-raising because the odds for flush are more than covered (we are assuming here there is not a bigger flush draw out there). Also I want the garbage hands out of there – I don’t want some dumb runner runner catching. If they want to call with garbage fine but they are not getting a free ride. The last thing I want are say a 6 on turn and 6h on river giving me the flush and losing to 62 holding.

2nd scenario – same thing. You have TPTK I am betting assuming I have best hand. Again I don’t want garbage catching 2 pairs after giving free cards away. Yes, a flush draw is getting correct odds but who knows if a flush draw is even out there.

A bit more aggression needed in both spots, you are good in both.
