Hand 2: Stack sizes help. Are the mini-raising donks short stacks? There's a flush draw and you have 2 donks in with you. You really want to bet around the size of the pot.
It seems that if you underbet the pot - even by 10 cents - you're more likely to be called by weaker hands. If you overbet the pot - again even by 10 cents - you're more likely to get folds except from strong hands, strong draws, and morons. Figure out who you're playing against and what you want them to do and bet accordingly.
In hand 2, you want them to make a mistake by calling but there are 2 donks in there. I suck at doing the math quickly, but I'd bet 75-90% of the pot and expect at least 1 call. I might even overbet push that turn and type "lol" if they both fold (as a setup for later). But I probably wouldn't overbet the pot as you did unless I had a note that one of them was a moron.

2nd hand. Just wondering how to maximise value without giving room for draws.? Bet $1 rather than $1.50 is the easiest solution yes?
