The 2nd hand was alright I think. but what if a diamond fell on the turn? What would you do then? Check and fold to a bet? I think check raising on the flop would be a better play. You would either take it down there or go broke if called. (Since you were willing to push with top pair on the turn anyways) Same thing on the turn, safe card or not. He would've called if he had a big J.The first hand I actually like betting right out. Check raising with trips probably gets your hand identified to easily. You either win a small pot or lose a big pot to a better kicker perhaps. Betting out, you probably will win a small pot or get re-raised and have a chance to take down a big one.

The first one you def. should raise but you may not need to go all in. I know theres a heart draw but if someone has a 9 then there is no way they are going to call. The second hand I would have either pushed or raised really big because of the flush and straight draws. Good luck in the future.
