Hand 1: Should I have pushed over the min-raise and hoped for a coinflip, being as that I was so short?

Hand 2: I ran this through ICM and it said it was marginal, so was this a good push?

Hand #1, yes you probably wont get a better spot than this to push with that few chips. Hand 2 I wouldve pushed too. It like 1 in 10 that he slowplayed a high pair or AK.

Agreed, barring reads in hand 1 that tell you you're completely screwed (and I honestly can't concieve of something making you sure he had a higher pair rather than Ax).
