swig,

Hand 1: bet closer to pot on the turn and push river. Your flush is somehow disguised (but not much I admit) because you lead the flop.

Hand 2: Pushing river here is way better than valuebetting. A c/r allin would be sexy as well.

I find this interesting. I would think you pick off a bluff more on the river? Seems like only hands that beat me call a push. I do need to work on betting the pot more, but I find I often get folds, unless I am behind.

I knew this was the answer but failed in the heat of the moment. It just feels so transparent...

Hand 3:
Better to check and maybe pick off a bluff with no read, or should I be blocking for $10 here?
Am I good 1 in 3 times?

UTG ($33.85)
MP ($16.35)
CO ($37.20)
Button ($55.85)
SB ($96.05)
Hero ($50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9, 6.
UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, CO calls $0.50, Button calls $0.50, 1 fold, Hero checks.

Flop: ($2.25) K, 9, 6 (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, CO bets $0.5, Button calls $0.50, Hero raises to $3, UTG folds, CO folds, Button calls $2.50.

Turn: ($8.75) A (2 players)
Hero bets $7, Button calls $7.

River: ($22.75) J (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $9.5, Hero calls $9.50.

swig,

In hand 1, if you bet $14 on the turn, a river allin will be only a half pot bet, and villian will feel obliged to call with a wide range of worse hand.

In hand 2, it doesnt matter if its transparent - unless villian is solid, he will have a hard time laying down a T-high straigh even against an open-push.

Hand 3: I prefer to lead these flops, but your c/r is fine. Rest is fine, I would probably fold to a bigger river bet though.

Hand 1 I'd bet the river and fold to a raise.

Hand 2, check-raise all in. He is betting a flush or a straight when you check to him and you can also induce a bluff. Plus the added money in the pot after he bets he will have trouble folding to a raise with a flush / straight.
