This is my last set from yesterday. Opponent was 39/32/2.33 and tilting after 130 hands (i did not know the correct stats at the time, but i felt he was way out of line a lot).

I can't see not bet-calling the flop is he is tilting and out of line. Then continue with the bet-3bet line. Depending on the kind of tilt I'm looking out, just holding down the raise button can be the right move.

This one I think I played pretty bad on flop.

I lead that flop without a read on CO. It will have hit a lot of limpers but limpers will call more hands then they bet.
Given that you called I think I like a turn cr better than a donk. The reason is the 3rd player dropped. You will get a lot of desperation stabs from people with nothing when they are faced with 1 opponent after they invest 1 bet on the flop. If the turn was a A or K I think you have to bet because those cards will scare weak made hands. On this board, weak made hands and bluffs will continue with a bet.
I don't much like the river. I like a read before I go calling raises on the river of a 4 straight board. Are you good 1-11 here? If the card is a possible 2 pair making card I mind a bet/call less but the 8 makes a lot more straights than 2 pairs. Sometimes I will bet fold this river. Reads make a big difference.
