Over the last couple days, the turn/river has paired the top board card vs. my aces many times, not sure how to play from there. I feel like a donk just calling down every time...

Hand 1: Villain is tight-weak preflop (12/5), but very aggro post flop (2.7, 4.5 on the river.) Bet the river, fold to a raise or just check/call?

They all look fine. I may raise the river in hand 4 and fold to a threebet. They love to bluff when the board pairs and its usually best to just call down at that point as you are usually either way behind or way ahead.
