First hand looks like villain has an overpair AA, kk, QQ, JJ. You're beat and chasing a gutshot. Fold to bet on the turn.
Second hand is iffy, He could have KQ or AQ or flopped a random two pair.
Blinky, I think it was your other post I just replied to where you mention going from SnG play to 6 max. I said it their and I'll say it again. I think you should start at full ring since you're just transitioning to ring from SnG's. The game is so different. It took me a while to get used to it myself. I lost all the profit I made playing SnG's while learning good post flop ring play. 6 max is a fast game and can be daunting to someone just learning ring play.
I tried 6 max when i made the ring transition thinking It would be easier to beat 5 opponenents rather than 10 and was overwhelmed by how awful i did. I then went to full ring and camped a bit, starting to learn post flop skills with premium hands first. You also need to learn good position play. I don't think very many Low limit SnG players understand this because it turns into a push/fold game quickly.
Good Luck.
