First hand, villain is 40/30/2 over 10 hands. The check on the flop in retrospect is bad, and I did it to mix up my game by checking some good hands behind. I should have done this with stronger hands instead of JJ which is vulnerable. How do you play the turn?

Hand #2
Villain is 41/17/2 over a small sample. This represents an issue that comes up frequently for me. When I have a hand that is likely to not be good, and the opponent bets very small, then I usually just call them down. How do you play this one?
