Some hands that I thought were played well, but I'm not so sure if I did the right thing.

Hand 1: I figure if they have the king, I'm not going to waste more money, and if they don't have the king, then I still get to see the showdown for 1 more big bet.

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 6, 6. CO posts a blind of $0.50.
UTG calls, 2 folds, Hero calls, 1 fold, CO (poster) checks, 1 fold, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (5 SB) K, 2, 3 (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, CO folds, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

Turn: (4 BB) 7 (3 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks.

River: (4 BB) 4 (3 players)
SB bets, UTG folds, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 6 BB

Hand 2: check/fold turn? Seemed pretty obvious that they had the 8, but it's hard to let this go on the flop or turn. No problem folding on the river though.

hand 4: All my profit is going into hands like these. Is there any way to avoid this or do I just have to accept it? I think I played this perfectly.

Hand 5: Lets get aggressive with crap! Another one I think I played fairly well. His turn call tells me he doesn't have a queen, but maybe a higher pocket pair or a 5. Given this and the possibility that they have a queen, I check/call the river.
