QJs hand
This is not a hand, we want to 3-bet from BB with this stack depth. The reason is, its a disaster to get 4-bet, and the hand is very playable, if you just call and see a flop. Facing the 4-bet its a fold, especially when you cant win his bounty. Of course its cool to make a royal flush, and you were flipping against his exact hand. But this is not a long term profitabel play.

ATo hand
I guess, you are trying to isolate the limper and win his bounty? It is important to win bounties in PKOs, but this is not the way to do it. You are risking far to many chips against the players behind you, and the limper can still fold, when he is facing a jam, so you dont even always get a chance to win his bounty. The much better play here is to isolate to maybe 4BB with intention to stack off against the limper but fold to a 3-bet from anyone else. Instead you got 70BB in preflop with ATo and sucked out on someone with KK, but this is also not a long term profitable play.
