Going through my short session from today. Found two hands from the button I would like som feedback on.

Hand 1:
SB is Tight and passive, when he bets he have have shown a decent hand so far. MP3 is a calling station.

Should I raised the flop?
Preflop: Hero is Button with K, J.
UTG calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, 1 fold, MP3 calls, CO calls, Hero calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (7 SB) 5, T, Q (7 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets, MP1 calls, MP3 calls, CO folds, Hero raises, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP3 calls.

Turn: (8.50 BB) 9 (5 players)
SB bets, UTG folds, MP1 folds, MP3 calls, Hero....
I got MP3 beaten for sure but sb? MP3 gives the reason to call this down or I'm I folding? Or do I reraise to find out if I'm ahead so far?

Hand2:
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9, Q. UTG posts a blind of $0.5.
UTG+1 calls, 4 folds, CO calls, Hero calls, 1 fold, UTG (poster) checks.

Flop: (4.50 SB) 3, T, T (5 players)
UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, CO checks, Hero bets, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO folds.
Most of the players been weak when shown strength. On left but no reraise plus loose put him on Ax.
Turn: (3.25 BB) T (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero bets, UTG+1 calls.
He's insn't going to leave this hand. Is it right to bet on the flush draw? Or should I take the free card.
River: (5.25 BB) 5 (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero ....
Ok got my flush no way I'm not going to bet this pot, or should I fear the boat and just check?

 hand 1 i raise and hope for a free showdown. if SB re-raises, you're toast. raising might also dump the third guy, though unlikely.

hand 2 my read is that you are up against a pocket pair. check through.

Hand 1: I would raise a non-diamond river, a weak player with a non-nut flush might not 3-bet the river.

Hand 2: Hmmm.. with 3oak on the board your flush is almost worthless. I think you have to bet if you think there is a chance a better hand folds.

Hand1:
I called the Turn. River came junk no diamond. Checked to me, I get weak and check too. SB takes it with Jd4d. Wondered if I coulda get him to fold pf with a raise he was V$IP=11%. MP3 had A5o....

Hand2:
Don't know why but I continued with my if not pushed back push ahead on this hand and bet. He called and showed AKo. Still feels this one was kinda stupid, was on a roll on this table but this felt a bit too LAG afterwards...

Hand1 - i would call/check it to showdown.

Hand2 - your toast to any pair. nobody is showing aggresion for fear of the 10. just check along, nobody is going to lay down their boat.
