Default 2 Interesting 2/4 hands

Hey guys. I don't normally post on here, preferring Cardrunners, but I thought I'd give it a shot as you all seem very MSNL savvy. Please check out these hands and let me know your thoughts.

Hand 1:

I honestly have no clue why I limped behind dead money here. It was either a mistake, or my lunch conversation with several of my friends about how they limp SCs and small PPs behind a field of limpers had gotten to me.

Villain's stats are 32/19 over 60 hands or so. We have no history and I rarely get out of line.

Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($390)
BB ($619.10)
UTG ($235.75)
Hero ($398)
CO ($393.80)
Button ($176.25)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 2, 2.
UTG checks, Hero calls $4, 3 folds, BB raises to $20, UTG folds, Hero calls $16.

Flop: ($46) 5, 9, T (2 players)
BB bets $40, Hero calls $40.

Turn: ($126) T (2 players)
BB bets $100, Hero goes allin for $338.

Final Pot: $326

Hand 2:

Villain in this hand is 38/15 of 85 hands. He seems a bit fishy, but I don't really know for sure. I've seen him throw his stack in the middle before, but it's yet to go to showdown, so anything is possible.

He hesitated for a split second longer than is typical before check/calling my flop bet. I could feel some weird thought process in his mind so I felt like he was planning to c/r the turn allin. But obviously I don't know if this is as a made hand or a bluff.

Hero ($412.40)
Button ($225)
SB ($490.90)
BB ($406)
UTG ($444.05)
MP ($368)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9, 9.
UTG calls $4, 1 fold, Hero raises to $18, 3 folds, UTG calls $14.

Flop: ($42) 8, 2, 4 (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $34, UTG calls $34.

Turn: ($110) 3 (2 players)</font>
UTG checks, Hero bets $90, UTG raises to $380, Hero calls allin.

Final Pot: $960

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
Ezra

Hand 1: is pretty gross, if you are going to do this at least have some sort of bail out draw giving you some equity when called.

Hand 2: you beat nothing.

you are basically drawing dead on the turn baluga style to like 85% of his range in hand 2, and 15% of his range is prob. drawing live.

hand 1 is meh, would help if u knew how often he was firing blank bullets multiple times etc.

i'm a little afraid he'll call with overpair + diamond in hand 1, but if he's got half a brain he'll fold, so i don't really mind it. but the flop float is pretty awful imo

hand 2 blows, just check the turn.
