elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 Hand 1: I still peel one off on the river. You're probably beat but getting like 9.5-1 I at least want to see what he is open limping. Also, it might work for your image if they look at the hand and see you (correctly) jamming on the flop with your 'marginal' hand.

Hand 2: I bet this flop and would continue to bet the turn, which would give you odds to call the turn bet. I can see how you cant call the turn 2 cold though.

Jeff - in hand 1 - wouldn't it be better to check/call then bet/call? I will often make this call as you said to see what my opp is open-limping. But without a read I don't have the balls to fire again on the river.
