Default Helping Hands

As some may be aware, I am a micro-stakes player looking to further improve my game. I respect the posts I've seen on this site and would like this forum's feedback on 2 of my recent hands. Opinions, criticism, and/or education are all that I'm lookin' for... For whatever reason, FTP doesn't seem to want to track my hand histories so I have to wing it (probably because I play at such high stakes)>>>>>>

Hand 1:
9 person, .25-.50 game,
Hero is SB
Villian is BB

Hero Hole cards: 4d, Kd

Action folds to Late Position Player who calls .50
Hero in SB calls .25
Villian in BB checks

Flop: 5d, 6s, 3s
Hero bets 1.25
villian calls 1.25
LP player folds (now heads up)

Turn: 5d, 6s, 3s (5h)
Hero bets 1.50
Villian calls 1.50

River: 5d, 6s, 3s, 5h (Qc)
Hero checks
Villian bets 7.00
Hero calls 7.00

Showdown: Villian 9d, 8d
Hero 4d, Kd

Hero wins 21.00 with pair of 5's w/ K kicker
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hand 2:

Same Game, several hands later
Villian is UTG
Hero is BB

Hero hole cards: 4d, Jd
Villian UTG calls .50
Folds around to Hero in BB
Hero checks

Flop: Ad, Qh, Ts
Hero bets .60
Villian calls .60

Turn: Ad, Qh, Ts (5c)
Hero bets 1.25
Villian calls 1.25

River: Ad, Qh, Ts, 5c (Kc)
Hero checks
Villian bets 4.95
Hero check raises to 15.00
Villian folds and Hero wins the pot.
