Re: yay
Hand 1 is close to being a smaller value check-raise on the river but I'd probably push too. Your primary hope here is that he slowplayed a set of jacks or kings, or backed into the nut straight. Players will often call out of frustration here when they realize that their trap has served only to trap themselves. A benefit of a smaller c/r is you can even get away from your hand if he comes back over the top.
Hand 2 I'm trying to figure out what you are accomplishing with your turn play. Do you know? This can only make sense if you can fold some hands you are losing to. All the times you get called when you are drawing dead or thin don't make up for the times that you fold out QJ no spade.
Hand 3 I don't know what this push accomplishes either. I guess you might get a call every once in a while from something like TT with a club but that's the best possible case scenario. All the other times you get called you are smoked.
