Default Some hands of stud8

I had a sick run of cards at the HORSE tables recently, making almost sixty big bets in about an hour (two-tabling).

Here are two of the last hands that i got dealt. I'd like to know if I'm betting at the right times, or if I should have played somewhat differently. What do you think?

HORSE - 7 Card Stud High-Low ($0,50/$1,00), Ante $0,05, Bring-In $0,25 (converter)

3rd Street - (0.80 SB)

After rereading the stud section in SS1 and the posts in this forum, I think I've gotten a little better at getting away from trap hands. I still think I donk it up a bit now and then, but I hope to eliminate some of those bad plays soon.

hand one looks perfect,

hand two, although your hand is not great you got to bet it because the jack will check more often than not. Just hope he calls and the rest call along

Hand 1 looks fine.

Hand 2 I bet 4th, you want to get rid of the other low draw. Rest looks fine.

Yeah that makes sense. I considered betting for exactly that reason, but I guess I got a little too passive there. I thought my hand had little scoop potential, but I catched very good on the latter streets.

The only street I was unsure about in the first hand was fifth street. I figured that I should bet in an attempt to force out the players that might be trying to get a high hand. It didn't really work out, but I guess my hand still has a nice equity there. Would you consider three-betting there, or is it likely that my hand is too far behind in both directions to make that play profitable?

I actually made up some possible hands for my opponents at fifth street. It seems like my EV is so good that I should probably just jam the pot:
