Can you please explain why the plays he made were good?

Hand 1: Someone almost certainly has a straight on the flop and he is behind. It is possible someone has a higher set. He doesn't have the odds to call.

Hand 2: His hand is marginal preflop, but he is on the button and his call isn't terrible.

His middle set is good on the flop since someone would have reraised the flop with top set. Someone may have a spade flush draw too. On the turn, it is possible that someone made a straight, but more likely not based on the betting. If hero is wrong and he is behind, he still has a lot of outs for a full house or maybe a chop for a straight.
