Default Am I calling too much?

Hand #1
Villain is 35/6/2 (50 hands)
PokerStars 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, Hero calls, BB folds.

The turn C/R looks like a flush, maybe a straight, is it worth calling this down, just incase villain has a lower two pair, or maybe a pair and a flush draw?

River: (9.75 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 11.75 BB

Hand#2
Villain is exactly the same person as in Hand#1.

Hand #3

PokerStars 1/2 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $1. CO posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP2 (poster) checks, CO (poster) checks, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.

Should I raise this pf against two posters and one limper?

Flop: (5 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, MP2 folds, CO folds, Button folds.

Turn: (3.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

River: (5.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 9.50 BB

I think I am correct to bet the river, however when villain raises it looks very much like he has hit a flush draw. Villain is loose average aggression. I was trying to convinse myself he might have something like AJ, but I dont think thats very likely because he would have raised the flop or turn with a hand like that.

Hand #4

Player reads : UTG+2 is weak tight and MP3 is extremely loose and unpredictable, can be too aggressive at times and too passive at others.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (12 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 raises</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 3-bets</font>, SB folds, BB folds, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls.

I can't see how this flop could have helped UTG+2 so I think he is probably betting an over pair. The 3 bet by MP3 is of more concern. If it was a typical player I would assume I was up agains trips but this player can be wild at times. So I decided to call down, not sure if this is correct or not thought, any thoughts?

Turn: (10.50 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
