You both seem nicely balanced for ranges in the first hand and in the absence of info to contrary I think you have to fold despite the marginal draws in range. It's rainbow and the flop was nothing so I see no multis. Let him go and stack off against your 2pr+ in future if he's OOL.

Hand 2 there's too much in range that got there just drop it.

Suspect V is player that has found significant value at these stakes/steaks by overbettiing the nuts.

Let someone else pay to prove that wrong and take notes if they do.

1) checking turn Behind 3way for sure for potcontrol on this texture. As played fold. Not that close but good information that he is capable of overbetting.

2) close since we checked turn behind, which is fine. I have a hard time giving him valuehands so I would call and feel dumb when he checked a set/fh 2 times. Some 5x makes sense I guess. Tricky spot with h1 info.

1: 3b pre, flop fine, turn bet bigger or check, fold now.

2: As a dumb exploitative play you could just like 40% pot the turn to checkback river. Pretty sure that's actually bad but might work decently well irl. Anyway checkback is fine too, I really want to call now, the only reason I'd fold is if you folded the KQ hand and this happened shortly after & you're sure he's an actual good player and not some spazzclicker. The overbomb just is always value the 2nd time around although he's not really supposed to play and hand this way.
