No reads? These are regular tourneys, you should know at least a little bit about your opponents range in both of these hands.
Without those, I like #1, you're only really worried about other higher PP's.
#2 seems fine, he's pretty short, and could be making a move with a pretty wide range. How did MP2 get so short? Kinda important.

I really like the first one. The second one is okay, but I may consider flat calling and pushing any non-Ace flop. Since he's short, the push is fine also.

I like the raise in the second one because you have position. If you were late position just call and make decisions from there.

The 2nd is good because hes so short.

1st one looks fine as well, but youll see QQ+ sometimes. In those cases, just hit a J and win.
