That first one you just got lucky because your opponent went to the bathroom or lost his Internet signal at that crutial point. About the second one, you had double the chips of your opponent and that 1,000 chips call wasnt that much when you have a 40k stack. You knew the worst it could happen when you decided to go all-in after having two pairs was to have the stack reduced by half, so it was worth taking that risk. You're a shark mate!

second hand is a typical hand for those who think that it s wise to go all in with highest pair.
Of course at lower levels your all-in is called with just a pair of aces.
but be realistic wich pokerplayer with some knowledge of the game is calling a allin of 20000 chips when there s only about 300 chips in the pot. This is called a donk
But just imagine what could have happened if he also hiited a tris after the flop. He raised about 1/2 pot postflop, you called and went all-in after the turn (when you hit double pair)
Also very risky play (if your opponent folds he just looses 1500 chips in this hand), if he has a tris he will gladly call and take your chips.
Only if you figured out his gameplay before the allin is understandable, but strictly on the hand shown above --> risky play

Ofc i figured their mindset i wouldn't do it otherwise. First guy talked to me about crazy russians playing with anything as he saw me playing tight doubling up on them. So right away when he had good hand i did this so he was scared for a reason. I only 3-bet once before that with KK so he figured he was beat, i figured thats why he didn't shove right away instead called to see if he is safe on flop.
I bullied 2nd guy like crazy so he couldn't resist calling first time he hit something.
