First off, you play against some nitty villains, find some loose fish instead

Hand 1:
Preflop: Why call preflop? This guy has a pfr of 7 and he just opened for a good amount, i think i just dump it here.
Flop: Seems fine, maybe raise a little more.
Turn: I guess a check behind is okay here for pot control and since he must like something about his hand if he called your raise, but it seems like your really only giving him another free card to hit his outs. At this point, what are you putting him on? He runs at 7 pfr right? So i wouldn't consider any hands that beat you yet, i don't think he would raise with kq, although i guess thats not out of the question. I don't think he would raise aj/a10/a6 pre. So i guess what beats you here would be a flopped set, vs your flopped two pair, which we've discussed quite a bit in your other thread, and you know my opinions on how rare that is lol, or kq, which i think is unlikely. So i think your usually ahead here, and he is probably on an overpair like kk qq maybe even aa. I think i would put him on something along the lines of kk/qq at this point.

Other thoughts:
He only has a af of .5, so hes probably not going to bet or raise you. I guess a check behind here on the turn isn't bad. Theres not much that can really scare you that can come on the river, but im not sure hes going to bluff at the river if he isn't holding a really good hand, he seems to like to call, so betting the turn is probably the line i would take. If thats what you did and he raised you or something, post the rest of the hand and we can go from there.

Hand 2:
I'm not sure if i would second barrel against this villain. Being OOP on this one sucks. As for the river, i don't think theres anyway your ahead here and as played, you have to check/fold.

Hand 3:
I think i would still 3 bet this pre, if he reraises or something then i would dump of course, and if he calls proceed with caution and play it pretty much as you did. I don't think i ever c/r the river on this board against this villain. My bet is he turns over something like ak/aq.

Hand 3: You really should be 3-betting this preflop; Pot is bigger then, c-bets is bigger. Checking turn is good. You beat exactly TT on the river, so I'd muck it.

hand 1: bet $30, and reevaluate (got any turn aggression numbers?). probably call shove. you're still ahead QQ,KK,AQ,AK, hands that might do something stupid.
hand 2: cbet less, keep the pot smaller. double barrel less, keep the pot smaller. as played, you can probably check fold. otherwise, with a smaller pot you can check/call a 50% bet.
hand 3: 6% raising = 88+,ATs+,KQs,AQo+, RAISE THAT MOFO!

hand 1 - raise more on the flop. bet turn, but i don't hate a check because of KQ possibility.
hand 2 - bet pot on river.
but check turn is best. with a check on the river too. if he bets river then fold.

1). pot the flop, check behind on turn. Villains range after flop probably resembles (Q-Q+, A-J, K-Q). Turn is a terrible card since Q-Q/K-K aren't putting more money in, and A-J/K-Q just pulled ahead. Definitely a check behind and if villain leads the river strong i would lay this down. This is one of the only scenarios i could see giving up on a flopped top two pair.
