Too aggro? I've read some interesting info, and the mantra about 6-max seems to me to be: I'm not going to slow down, until the other guy tells me to. Check thru the river?

The turn raise was hoping to buy myself more outs. Instead everyone called anyway. Bad raise? Good raise?
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

Hand 1 - on river - check-call. You can be up against Kx or Jx here. Pot just enought to warrant a call. Imagine if he raised you all the sudden on river.... You'd be dead.

Hand 2 - consider yourself lucky here if you win. You maybe beat by a flush though. As played.. preflop-fold. Only play J9s from CO/BUT play. Post flop, played it nicely though.

 Hand 1 I c/c the river hoping to induce a bluff

Raising the turn multiway in hand 2 is bad as you are behind everyone and have zero FE egainst the field. You don't buy yourself anymore outs b/c the SB most likely has a Queen.
