Hand 1.
No threat, I should have waited for the turn at least.

Hand 2.
Should I let the third guy (very loose player) see the flop for $5? I usually like to isolate KK but I'm not sure if it was too much risk with the short stack.

nice hands but...

In 25NL with KK, AA, QQ try to raise the pot bigger than $1 unless you are wanting more players in the flop with you which I dont recommend.

The $5 bet is way to much since the pot has no more than 3-5$ in it after the flop. A pot bet of $2-4 is more like it... Either way a win is a win in poker.

First hand: Why raise so much on the flop? That's a rag/rainbow board if I've ever seen one. The only person that calls an overbet right there has you beat (a set). Bet the pot and try to make a little more money.

Second Hand: Raise more preflop. You should raise to $1.50 at least, if not $2 with that many callers preflop. You want to isolate with KK, you don't want to be playing against 3-4 other people.

That's awesome that you got some donk to push 44 into your KK, though.
