1. Bet turn, check behind river UI.

2. You're often drawing dead or to three outs against this guy. Fold the turn. Raising the flop for a free card has merit. As played, you need to pick up a draw to call the turn.

The problem in Hand 1 is: I'm often behind, the pot is small, a better hand will not fold to a bet. I can not easy fold to a check raise, because the board is coordinated and I have outs.
